Pet Scents Can Get Their Owners' Dander Up


Ever notice how often you know if a person has a pet even before you see their wagging tails or hear them purring. It's your nose that knows. Wet fur, pet dander, liter boxes, they all have their story to tell. And no matter how clean a house is pets let you know they're there even before they show up.

Replacing a pet scent
with some temporary air freshener is not only ineffective, the air freshener themselves can put toxins in your air and make a bad situation even worse. You can hold your nose and grin and bare it or you can take that scent right out of the air. Here's how.

There is an especially good air filtration system by Austin Air on the market today that is both highly effective and cost effective as well--the Austin Air Pet Machine Air Purifier. It works by radically changing the air inside your home. Every minute it passes more than 250 cubic feet of indoor air through the filtration system literally vacuuming out airborne particles that cause odors, allergies and other breathing difficulties with more than 99% efficiency.

This filtration system can remove everything from particles you can see, like dust, hair, pet dander, mold, spores and pollen as well as chemical odors like sulfuric acid and ammonia and even minute and potentially harmful micro-organisms like bacteria and viruses.

In addition to removing pet odors and indoor air pollutants, this filtration system leaves noticeably clean and fresh smelling air behind which can actually enhance your energy, alertness and comfort.

We all love our pets and most of us wouldn't be without them. But one thing we should all be without are the pet odors that linger in our homes. Often olfactory fatigue sets in and dulls our senses to these offensive odors, but just like you can sense them in others homes, others can sense them in yours. With this filtration system you can love your pet and love your air.
