Pet urine odor in your home can be so offensive to family and friends that they may not want to visit. But with the right air purifier you can have your cat and entertain your family and friends too.
Pet odor can be one of the most difficult smells to eliminate particularly urine smell. Use these guidelines to help you bring home the air purifier that will be most effective for your pet and your family.
Continuous Filtration–Any air purifier that is to be effective against urine odor needs to be able to run efficiently and economically all the time. This will prevent odor from building up and greeting you or your guests at the door.
A unit with a split capacitor motor listed in the technical specification means that it will safely operate 24 hours a day. And continuous filtration is crucial.
It will keep your home smelling fresh while giving you time to find and neutralize offending puddles that your pets may have made while you were away. Check the technical specifications for a high capacitor motor that will allow the purifier to run safely 24 hours.
Variable Speed Control–Make sure the cleaner you choose gives you the option of varying the rate at which it will filter the air. Having variable speed control is important. This makes it easy to increase the filtration speed if you come home to a mistake on the floor or carpet.
For normal conditions you can choose a low or medium fan speed to keep. This makes the purifier more economical to run, and gives you more control over its effectiveness.
Steel Housing–Pets are often curious when a new object is introduced into their space (your home) and may chew or lick it as a way of deciding whether it’s okay. Choosing a purifier made of steel means that it is all but impossible for you pet to break off pieces, and choke or worse.
Make sure the paint is a powder coat finish free of lead and other additives that are harmful to your pet and small children.
Filter Make-up Designed for Pet Odor–Read the fine print to make that the filter will remove pet urine odor for the pet that you have whether it’s a cat, dog, bunny, ferret, guinea pig.
A bonus feature would be one that filters urine odor from a variety of pets so that if you decide to add to the family, you’ve already have a purifier that will do the job.
