can eventually use it. I am off-gassing a dehumidifier now in a room where

I don't stay and hopefully it will finally quit smelling too.

Rabbit Air's CDR rate is lower than some, but it works well for me.

Another nice feature is the automatic odor detector that DOES work.

I suggest calling the manufacturers of the air cleaners before buying

one to ask if they are coated with anything that might need to be run

outside for a few hours. Same thing with any new appliance.

When purchasing one consider who it is from , that they will take it back if you

have a problem.  Make sure it is made for MCS'ers although some may still have

problem with the different carbons used.

The more carbon the air purifier has the more ordor is removed.  I do not like

how on the Rabbit Air page the second chemical camparison is acetic acid,

nothing more than vinager.  than is like trying pull the wool over your eyes. 

I

rather go for a little noise and better air.
