Do you think the air filter/purifier can really suck out the bad smell?

I tried few brands and the smell is still there.

Or you think it doesn't work at all?

Bad smell = human smell, pet smell and whatever smell

in general not all air purifiers have charcoal filter to remove the smell

some has charcoal but can't too

no, if u want really block out smell, i suggest seal the window, it worked for me, u need to close a lot air gap, coming from a place where the neigbour who cook chicken redang, beef rendang, stinky bean at 3AM

the most expensive the most bad smell can filter

In my experience, no. Air purifiers filter out some particles but human noses are so sensitive that we only need very little of the noxious particles to tell that it smells bad. Even when the air quality detector says that quality is good. You probably need some kind of deodorizer.

Cannot.. u use 10 also cant

Only can trap dust

All this bad smell, must kill the source..
Human smell, ask tat human wash up or kick him out

Pet smell, throw it out

yes you are correct. But they advertised can do so.

I believe now after trying some brands.

filter i doubt, detect yes..
everytime i fart, the purifier auto up 2 notches

which brand? dyson that costs 5k one?

I am curious. Why not tackle the smell 1st? instead of purchase filter?

What the story?

If you live a typical incel lifestyle (i.e. dirty laundry pile up, don’t change bedsheet every 2 weeks, shower once a day or none at all, dirty dishes pile up at the sink, not cleaning your house etc), I can guarantee no air filter will be able to help you.

it also depends on how strong the odour is, if its constantly being produced you throw as much charcoal also no use

get rid of the main source first baru the filters can do their work

neighbour cooking and fly to my house and leftover the curry chicken smell

1) medical grade filter

2) close the window or door. stop the source coming in

Hi bro, wondering what brand u tried?

cant disclose here and later kena LOD

then how big and effective is your air purifier? did you close the windows to prevent further smell coming in? is there proper airflow circulation in the affected areas?

so many variables bruh, air purifier isnt some miracle solution

i dont think air purifier can purify smell ..haze can la

Industrial filter can. Data Server water filter can.

But household filter markets charcoal only to improve water taste. Not remove odour.
