We review air purifiers. We buy them and test them under the same conditions to compare their performance. Our tests reveal what manufacturers won’t tell you.

In a bid to replace falling ad revenue, big media publishers are inundating the web with bad product recommendations you can’t trust. Google is killing independent sites like ours through inaction. We hope to still be here to see things change: housefresh.com/david-vs-digit…

If you run a 3D printer you should have a CO2/VOC/Formaldehyde detector. This thing was red across the board after a night of printing. Opening a window for about 10 minutes dropped everything into the safe zone.

We have a size adapter that can be attached to the 3Pro fan, converting the rectangular air outlet into a round one. Additionally, there is a sealing cloth that can seal the window, allowing you to place the air outlet inside it.

@Engineer_Wong Please tell us more about how you've connected it in? Dust in our home is significantly reduced with a HEPA on the furnace & separate filters elsewhere.

So...this showed up on my doorstep... ...a Nukit Lantern Far UV-C lamp, which can safely sanitize air of germs at UV energy levels that are skin and eye safe for people. So far, I've not posted about Far UV because I didn't have a way to talk about it objectively with UV measurements of my own. Without being able to measure the output myself, what can I say about a UV lamp? "It looks nice"? "Easy to mount and turn on"? For respirators, I'm able measure how well they fit and filter, but for Far UV I'm in the same boat as everyone else and just have to hope that the manufacturer's claims are accurate, leaving me with no way to differentiate between different vendor's products other than cost and manufacturer's claims. I've mentioned this issue in the past and @NukitToBeSure was kind enough to loan me a UV Spectrometer that includes the 222nm Far UV spectrum. I think the most important thing to consider about Far UV is that it requires a dwell time to work, so it can't create a localized zone of instant clean air like some sort of SciFi beam weapon. Instead, Far UV needs to be thought of as a whole room treatment for all of the air in the room and you need enough lamps to treat the whole room. How many lamps you'll need depends on the room size and the power and the beam spread of the lights.

We will need to adjust the price of the AirFanta 3Pro starting from March 16th by $5. This decision has been necessitated by the recent increases in the costs of raw materials (including plastic and copper), packaging, fuel, courier services, and international shipping. These factors have significantly impacted our production and operational expenses, and a slight price adjustment is required to continue delivering the quality and service you expect from us. We truly appreciate your understanding and continued support. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

I just received news from the supplier that the price of plastic granules has surged by 70% in the past few days due to their derivation from petroleum, and they are currently unavailable. If the war continues, we may face the risk of further price hikes or even supply shortages. And it is not only AirFanta, almost everything.

A reminder that oil isn't just the fuel that powers transportation, homes and factories, it is also the raw material that makes up components in the majority of products we buy and depend on - including vital medical supplies.

The link is an advertising page filled with affiliate links not a news page. It's not new and dates back to 2022, with updates over the years. The page is related to the kind of content @ThisHouseFresh has talked about, pages that look like reviews but are actually just marketing. At least the info on the NBC page gets a number of things right about N95s, but it is still written by NBC Select Shopping, not by the news department. The author's byline is listed as "reporter": "Zoe leads editorial coverage for tentpole sale events including Amazon Prime Day, Black Friday and Cyber Monday" Ooh, hard hitting news... :-/ NBC claims the featured affiliate link items are "independently selected," never mind that better products that don't have any affiliate marketing will not be "independently" selected.

Review site @rtingsdotcom is putting up a paywall on its website to access product testing data. One thing I learned while at CNET was that reviewing products is expensive. AI regurgitating that data (sometimes incorrectly) means less clicks for sites. youtu.be/6DshOOs39vA

Thanks to @NukitToBeSure who kindly loaned me the UV spectrometer to do some Far UV testing. I'm running it through its paces on regular UVC to start to get some benchmarks. Shoutout to @ThisHouseFresh for getting the meter out to me. I own a similar meter that does UV A, B, C, and visible light, but doesn't go into the Far UV range like the one from @NukitToBeSure does. I previously tested the Wellbefore sanitizer with my unit, but the results seemed odd so I wanted to double check with a dedicated UV spectrometer before talking about the results.

Wellbefore has a handy collapsible UVC sanitizing device on sale for cheap. The size is big enough to be useful for more than just cell phones, and it is light and portable. But does it actually do anything? The marketing says "24 POWERFUL UVC LEDs" but doesn't give any quantitative information on how bright they are or what the total UVC dosage over time is. That makes it impossible for any potential customer to tell if this device actually works or not. Knowing the actual spectrum and power of the UV sanitizer LEDs is important because there are lots and lots of "UV sanitizers for sale that don't work, including many that don't even put out any UVC, the type of UV needed for sanitizing.
