We are happy to provide a link to a new review of the Purrified Air pet odor filter by the good folks at ThePurringtonPost.com.
Review excerpt:
Litter box odor was never a problem in our home … until we began fostering cats. We have a separate foster room (12′ x 12′) where we keep the momma cat and her kittens (anywhere from 4-6). With three large litter boxes (changed multiple times a day), it can still get pretty smelly in there at times.
We were introduced to a product called the Purrified Air litter box air filter (photo below) and jumped at the opportunity to try it out. This product was purpose designed to eliminate pet smells, allergens and pet dander using a replaceable activated carbon filter that also reduces allergies, bacteria, and viruses in the air (lasts 4-7 months).
There are two general groups of impurities filters seek to remove: particles and odor. When we speak of particles, on the large end we are referring to dust, pet dander and dust mites, and on the small end, soot from smoke, mold spores, pollen and large bacteria cells. Odor (Volatile Organic Compounds, or VOCs), on the other hand, consist of much smaller molecules.
It’s wonderful to have a cat in the house, but it’s less wonderful when everyone knows you have a cat as soon as they get a whiff of your entry way. Although it’s easy to believe there’s no way around the smells that come with cat ownership, no longer is a home perfumed by your kitty litter a burden you have to bear.
Our Air Purifier for Pets is a compact piece of technology built to reduce the pet waste odor in your home to undetectable levels!
Purrifier Air helps you remove pet smells, dander, allergens and other substances from the air of your home.
Dear Earth Talk:What are the health effects of clumping cat litter on humans? Are there any negative side effects from breathing the actual litter? —Andy and Taeja Klukas, Maple Grove, MN
Clay-based cat litters contain crystalline silica, the main component in sand, rock and mineral ores. A possible health threat from clay-based litters is posed by silica dust, which can be kicked up and breathed in by both cats and humans.
Has a capacity for virtually any vapor contaminant. It will adsorb some of almost any vapor;
Has a large capacity for organic molecules, especially solvents;
Will adsorb and retain a wide variety of chemicals at the same time;
Has an extremely large capacity to destroy ozone catalytically. Ozone is a major component of smog;Works well under a wide range of temperature and humidity conditions;
Adsorbs odors and chemicals preferentially to moisture. It is not a desiccant and will release moisture to adsorb chemicals;
Can be used as a carrier of one material to attract and hold or react with another material;
