Warning for pet owners that have ozone type air cleaners

There is nothing worse than a fat middle-aged drug addict who GIGGLES,

Actually, I'm of average weight & not into drugs. You got the age part about
right though. Too bad your only purpose is to be combative and that you lack
the intellect/common sense to debate logically.

I have a HEPA filter and I also just bought one from Oreck. So far, I'm
sneezing just as before. :-(

Good, you ass.

They are hazarous to your and your pet's health:

From the research I've done, the best air cleaner for the
home is your
standard HEPA cleaner with a replaceable filter.

Thanks for the alert. I've been thinking of
adding a whole-house filter, and I'm glad to
know to avoid one that generates ozone.

The wife and I went thru this when she had gotten a couple birds whose
respitory systems are suppposed to be 20 times more sensitive than ours. We
have a filter type type and she wanted one of the ozone types. I researched
on one of the bird groups and there were as many that said it was ok as
there were that said they were not ok. So we decided not to take the
chance. Well she no longer has the birds so we got a Living Air air pufier
which we've had now for quite a while, about a year I guess. So far there
are no problems for us or the cat. I know of some that have them because
they have birds. I guess it's kinda like which is the best food, or food
type.

That you know of. I think you should go to the links I posted and
especially read the ones from the EPA, and the State of California,
which states:

"Human population studies of long-term exposures to low-level ozone
indicate that it may lead to permanent reduction in lung capacity;
animal studies have shown chronic high-level exposures can cause lasting
structural damage in the lungs."

AFAIC the potential/known hazards make this type of air cleaner (which
is a misnomer as it doesn't clean the air) an unacceptable risk. My
neighbor had one of these devices, but after reading the articles it now
resides in the trash.

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one
elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and
splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."

Isn't this the expensive Sharper Image type? I was thinking about
getting something like that since winter is approaching and the
windows are getting shut.
