Unpacking, and installation advice about an air purifier for pet odors

As with other air cleaners, cleaning air devices, or generators, installation is similar and easy.

The first step is to remove the plastic cover. The filters are packaged and in order to use the purifier you need to unpack them. Please note this, because if you turn on the unit without performing this step, it could damage the motor. In this case, the warranty will not cover the recovery of the unit and the company will not send you a new one or reimburse you. When you open the back panel, you will see that there are three filters. The first is the pre-filter. As we said before, the pre-filter removes larger dust particles such as hair and dander from the air and also increases the efficiency and life of the HEPA filter.

The second filter, which is black, is the carbon filter. You can recognize it by the color and the granule charcoal.

The third and most important filter is the HEPA filter. It is common knowledge that HEPA blocks very small pollutants in the air that are invisible to the naked eye. All filters are either in plastic bags or simply need to be wrapped. Depending on the device, the pre-filter may hang from the rear panel. There are small white hinges sticking out. They help you plug the filters in and plug them back in, which is very simple. When putting the filters back into the unit, make sure they are in the correct position. Look at the sides of the filters, there would be arrows showing you how to put the HEPA filter and the carbon filter. Putting on the rear cover with its pre-filter is also very simple. When you are ready to unbox, you can turn on the device. Depending on your model, the air purifier draws in air from the sides or bottom and fresh air comes from the top.

The final step is to simply enjoy the cool air coming from your air purifier. When you turn on the purifier, you will see different variable operation buttons. Thanks to them, you can adjust the fan speed and the different modes such as automatic mode or sleep mode. You can also toggle the UV feature on and off from here.

where to place the pet air purifier

The ideal place to locate the purification device is in the room where you spend the most time. Common locations are the bedroom, living space, or kitchen. Most units can be placed anywhere, but keep in mind that some of them need space.

All animal lovers and owners know that animals have their own smells. But nobody likes the smell of the cat toilet, right? Other great places to install your air purifier are next to the cat toilet, bed, or your pet’s room.
