African Grey Air Purifier

African Greys are some of the most beautiful and intelligent parrots to have as pets. 

Many can speak fluently, and with proper care they can live over 50 years. 

Part of helping them enjoy a long and healthy life is about providing fresh air that is free of particles and odors.

Their respiratory systems are very sensitive to odors, and their air passages are easily clogged because they are so small.  Unfortunately, once symptoms occur that signal illness, it is often too late to reverse the condition.

The fact that these birds are powder down birds only adds to the challenge that you as an owner face in keeping the air clear.  All birds, in fact all warm-blooded animals, produce dander or dead skin flakes. 

But in addition to dander, the white powder that Greys produce can be daunting to keep under control.  But it is essential to minimize the powder and dander if you and your bird are to remain healthy.

An air cleaner that can stand up to this kind of particulate nightmare needs lots of different sized filters that can trap airborne particulates. 

The recipe for success in terms of filters should go like this--pre-filters for big and medium particles, a HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting filter for micron-size particles like dander, and a filter for odors, gases, and airborne chemicals that can also trap particles.

This purifier extraordinaire should also rise above controversy and produce zero ozone and no ionized particles.  Fresh air should be the only by-product.

African Grey Dust

If you own an African Grey, you know how very special these birds are.  Whether you have a Congo or Timneh they are intelligent, many are well-spoken, and all are beautiful to watch!

What is not so much fun is the white powder that they produce.  It can cover everything in your bird room and even your home. 

And as unsightly as it is, letting this powder accumulate can cause health problems for your bird and the humans who love it.

The respiratory systems of your avian friend can easily become clogged when they are forced to inhale air that is thick with dust. 

Clogged airways make it easy for disease and infection to interfere with your birds’ health, and often it is impossible to reverse the condition.

Bird dust can also cause some health issues for humans as well including the exacerbation of allergies and asthma and the onset of respiratory problems that were not formerly a problem.

Cleaning with a damp moth and cloth solve the problem once the dust has fallen from the air.  But truly ddressing the problem means reducing the amount in the air so there is less to fall out of the air.

Filtering the air 24 hours a day is the most effective way to reduce the number or particulates in the air.  HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting filters are best at removing particles that are as small as .3 microns in size.

The air cleaner you choose for your bird room should have multiple filters that are designed to remove a wide range of particulate sizes.

The Bird Dust Air Purifier from PurerAir.com offers 4-stage filtration and includes a HEPA filter, 2 pre-filters and carbon cloth.  We continue to send it to be used by aviaries and bird lovers around the country.
