Air purifier gas masks

Air

For city-dwellers sometimes walking down the street means breathing in the dark cloud of smoke from pollution. It feels like having an exhaust pipe blowing directly into your face. You cough, suffocate, burn your eyes and look like you just came out of a coal mine. What if there's a face mask that could filter the air. Not just a simple cloth air filter but something far more advanced. It processes the air, removes the pollutants and purifies the air to make it seem like your breathing fresh air all the time.

There are many benefits that comes with breathing in fresh air. It relaxes you and improves your overall health. But what I really like about this device is that it can protect you from foul smells. Don't you just hate it when someone farts in the room? It's like having small particles of crap delivered into your nose. Luckily with this device, these can be just filtered out. A device that can block farts. Hence I call this, the "Fart blocker".

@Alexander I sure would use the fart blocker everytime I go to the toilet. Sometimes I suffocate myself with my own fart when I poop.

Inexpensive face masks, like the disposable paper-filter masks available in hardware stores, are effective only against airborne particles.?

@sstevens46 I spend most of my time thinking about one of two frightening things: how I could have had more fun in college, and what will happen when there?s a nuclear attack against the United States.?

@agomez48 Now many are in the West qualifying universities using fake and forged credentials enabling them to stay.

Actually they have gas masks in the rooms in every hotel in China. And may seem to be worth a headline, it's only purpose is to prevent you from choking in case of a fire.?

@cclark4e All you see is the tyre and exhaust smoke while it vanishes in the distance. That's your economy v China. Your time is over.

@cclark4e I have been in multiple Chinese hotel rooms in many cities as well. They have all had smoke masks and flashlights, required by Chinese law - check your closet carefully.

@ewest4m I also started to use the mask three years ago. Of course I am worried about the pollution

@chunt4n For the first time last year I wore a respro mask always when the pollution was above 200

@chunt4n My best advice would be to go to the Respro website and read about the different types of masks.

@randrews4x Would a hood with full face be more practical for civilians? I suddenly feel really stupid.

I would add that proper fit is crucial. In fact, you should be properly fit-tested annually in any respirator.
