Nora Borgeson I recently discovered what appears to be black mold in our master bathrom and ensuite shower area. My son doesn't believe in black mold, but my daughter has been sick for years and began hallucinating when sleeping in the master bedroom and also in her Grandmother's musty basement. Fortunately I found this mold and removed it, a few days later I sensed a strong moldy odor while eating in a local restaurent and later returning home the same day I experienced a strong smell of what seemed like moldy or damp drywall dust. No one else could smell the odours. Later that night I had difficulty sleeping, needing to cough as if something was caught in my lungs. Could that have been from exposure to black mold? Could there be long term effects? 9/9/2008

Shane McP Air Purifiers do not filter out any particles. They are not regulated by most governments because they are sold as "purifiers" not filters. The only filters that actually work are HEPA filters. Air purifiers can actually degrade air quality and make people ill. They generate ozone (O3) which is a harmful pollutant when it is not in the ozone layer. Think of the smog above L.A., same stuff.

Don't believe me? Check it out:
Search google for Air purifier EPA, since I cannot post a link on this site.
