If I am to err on the side of caution:
Can fire retardants be filtered by commercial off-the-shelf Air Filters?
If yes what type of tech or air filter type would filter these? For the sake of 'neutrality' would prefer a discussion focused on the working principle of the filter tech instead of just casual 'product naming'.
- DiabloD3 6y agoDepends on how you define air filter. I think you have to have one that can capture VCOs, which puts you into expensive, but still considered normal consumer (as opposed to professional/enterprise/commercial/etc), products. So, I'd suggest offhand to look at IQAir and Austin Air products to see if any of them state they can grab OPFRs. Their bottom level products probably won't.
- ip26 6y agoIf you own your residence, and live somewhere with good air quality most of the year, forget about air filtering and go for air changeovers. Read about ERV/HRV. Activated carbon filters are inexpensive and remove VOCs but in my experience not terribly quickly.
