Effective Pet Smell Elimination--4 Features To Choose In An Air Cleaner For Pet Odor - By: Debbie Davis

Looking for a way to eliminate pet odor before it builds to embarrassing levels? Not sure that getting rid of pet odor, particularly urine odor, is even possible? Here are 4 features to look for in an air purifier that will help you constantly eliminate pet odor. Read on.

1. To effectively remove pet odor, you need an air purifier that can work for you 24 hours a day. Why?--because pet odor happens 24 hours a day. In order to stay ahead of the smell and keep your air smelling fresh, it needs to have a split capacitor motor rated for continuous high revolutions per minute (RPM), which translate for you into long life duty.

2. Check to see that the purifier contains a filter with a chemical make-up that can remove pet urine smells. Even if you were to stay home 24 hours a day, you would have to follow your pet around to be able to know if, when, and where inappropriate elimination had occurred. A filter that can remove urine and other undesirable smells can keep your home smelling fresh and clean regardless of what has happened while you were away.

3. In order for an air cleaner to be low maintenance, it needs to have numerous filters. The filter for odor is probably what you're most focused on, but having this cleaner be able to remove some of the normal household pollutants would be a great advantage. Pollutants such as dust, dust mites, mold and mildew spores and pet dander can trigger allergies and asthma flare ups for those who are susceptible. But whether you suffer from acute respiratory conditions or are as healthy as can be, keeping your indoor air quality high can do nothing but improve your overall health and well-being.

These type of pollutants can be efficiently removed by a high efficiency particle arresting (abbreviated as HEPA) filter. By definition this type of filter has to remove 99.97 % of particles that are.3 microns or greater. As a pet owner this means that for every 10,000 airborne particles of hair, this filter will remove 99,997 of them.3 microns in size.

4. Pre-filters are essential because they keep the more specialized filters from filling up with easy to remove particulates such as airborne dust, lint, and hair. Allowing these big particles to be trapped first before they can clog the other specialized filters means longer filter life, which means less maintenance.

So, if you are searching for an air purifier that can put an end to your pet odor problem, remember to look for one that contains the following 4 filters-2 pre-filters (a large and a medium particle), a HEPA, and an inner filter that is specifically designed to eliminate pet urine odor.

A good place to find out about what the air cleaner you're considering contains is in the technical specification, the on-line manual that can usually be viewed or downloaded, or by calling a company representative to ask.
