Thanks for video! Do you know if they specifically test for fiberglass particles? I had an issue with a mattress

Can you do a video that tells what the best handheld testers are and what they detect. Like you do for air purifiers?

I'm looking for one that detects mold and asbestos, along with everything else, but I don't have tins of money to spend.

Which air purifier is great for removing the strong odor of creosote that gets into my home. I live in an old home with a 3ft crawlspace and all the wood years ago was treated with creosote and smell an odor come up into my home in the warm summer.

is there a monitor for indoor air quality due to auto emissions ( garages below me.)

Buyer beware. If you order 3 of these things each one will tell you something different. The first one told me my air was dangerous. Second one said it was perfect. Third one said right in the middle. All sitting next to each other. I'm not the only one if you do some digging it's a known issue. If you have no verifiable baseline reading you have no idea if this thing is accurate. It's a very dangerous to assume it is correct if it reads low, and very expensive if a false high reading gets you tearing your house apart and trying to solve a problem that isn't there. Definitely not a proven device without something to compare results to.

can you show how to find the uncertanty of the indoor air quality miss I need for my lab report thanks.

[arielrodriguez]

I tested my home with a potable and plug in monitor and the air is good. Do I still need a purifier?

[therealrodney]

How can we say activated charcoal is purifying air .In practically putting a bag like 500grams

[itsnotvenus]

cannot we check the air quality without purchasing any of the device?

[johndor]

Home Air Check Sampling Kit you said $5 to $30. Link you gave says Price: $272.95

[mikel]

Pretty poor advice actually. Yes, monitoring your indoor air quality is good, but it means nothing if you don't understand what the results are. You get a high reading or VOC's, okay now what? You just going to throw an air purifier in and call it good? Or are you going to actually investigate and solve the problem? Anyone can tell you what your Indoor Air Quality is. But a professional will tell you where it's coming from and how to fix it. I will guarantee that those machines you showed were not purifiers, they were filters. Huge difference between the two.

Do you have anything that isn't childish to say
