>How to Change an Air Purifier Filter How to Change Your Air Purifier Filter How do you know when to change the filters on your Oreck AirInstinct™ 200 air purifier? Just look at the indicator light; it will blink when a filter may need to be replaced. (Filter life will vary by usage and environment.) When the indicator light blinks, press the Mood Button to find out which filter needs to be replaced. Low Speed Light means the HEPA Filter needs to be replaced. Medium Speed Light means the Odor (or A3™) filter needs to be replaced. The Pre-Filter needs to be replaced every 2 to 4 weeks. IMPORTANT: Always remove the protective plastic packaging from the filter before installing the filter. Turn the air purifier off and unplug it. Open the front cover (white panel) by gently pulling from the top corners. Rinse the front cover thoroughly in warm water or as needed. Set it aside and let it dry before re-installing. Pull the pre-filter straight out of the cabinet.

(Since it filters out large particles it might contain dust, hair and lint.) Thoroughly rinse the Pre-Filter and let it air-dry before placing it back in the cabinet. Do not use heated or compressed air as part of the drying process. Remove the Odor Filter Remove the used Odor Filter (also called the A3™ filter) and discard. DO NOT dispose of the Odor Filter’s plastic frame—you’ll need it to properly insert the new filter! Remove the HEPA Filter Remove the HEPA filter and discard. Before re-installing the new HEPA filter, take it out of the plastic. Install the new HEPA filter. Before re-installing the new Odor (A3TM) filter, take it out of the plastic. Place the new Odor filter into the original plastic frame that you saved when you took the old filter out. Insert the new Odor filter into the unit. Replace the new odor filter (the black side should face towards you) Re-insert the clean, dry pre-filter into the unit. Using a small enough tool to fit through the air inlets, press the small black reset button located behind the air inlet/outlets.

Replace the front panel; it should snap onto the unit easily.

He said that the bags left no fresh scent which he was expecting but then realized that there was no oder at all! Thats what I wanted! After vacuming my dog hair up my vacume continued to smell awful no matter what I did (carpet fresheners, fresh tablets...). Well, these bags are wonderful. I can vacume now with no dog smell at all. There truly is no oder. This is a great product. My vacume doesn't even smell in the closet. Yes () No (0)  Report Yes () No (0) Verified purchaser The product had the words Odor Eliminator on the bag. At first I was expecting a fragrance when I used my vacuum, but after a few uses, I realized I smelled nothing. Which, in previous uses, I always smelled that "dirty/dusty" smell, you know what I'm talking about, right????

I am pleasantly surprised with this purchase. Wish my local store would carry them, though. Had to order them on line. Which, honestly, wasn't too bad, I guess. Make sure you keep some in stock!!! I will continue ordering these bags. Yes () No (4)  Report Yes () No (4) This sure beats the price for bags- when you purchase them from the Oreck Store.

I searched online and found them cheaper at Walmart!

Kate Benjamin calls the air purifier and odor eliminator a “game changer. ” Kate has 12 cats of her own, and combating odors is something that she deals with on a daily basis, so I figured she knew what she was talking about. I wanted to learn more about this air cleaner, and contacted the company. When I received the two sample units they sent me, I couldn’t believe my eyes: they’re tiny!The CritterZone Air Purifier is only 4.5″ tall by 2.75″ wide by 1.75″ deep. The wall plug in unit protrudes about an inch from the wall in the back of the unit.  The cord that comes with the corded unit protrudes less than .5 inch.I have to admit, I was skeptical. How could something so small really do anything to reduce odors?I plugged the unit into an outlet in my kitchen after I had reheated some split pea soup, which has a pretty strong smell. I’m funny about cooking smells – I love them before and while I eat, but I want them gone as soon as I finish. I can’t stand lingering odors.

By the time I finished my bowl of soup, the kitchen no longer smelled like soup!But I’m sure what you really want to know is how it works on pet odors. I tested the unit near one of our litter boxes. Ruby is a vertical pee-er, and before I got the NVR Miss, the only litter box I’ve been able to find with high enough sides to eliminate this problem, we had some accidents. Even though I had used numerous cleaners around the box (it sits on carpet), I’d still occasionally get a faint whiff of urine odor. I only had to run the unit there for 10 minutes, and the remaining faint odor was completely gone. I haven’t smelled it since.October 2014 update: I had a chance to use the Critterzone on a urine stain on our carpet when some of Ruby’s urine spilled over the sides of our high sided box because I had filled it with a little too much litter. After blotting the stain, and putting the Critterzone upside down on the damp area for about half an hour, there was absolutely no odor left.

The Critterzone produces a natural ionic flow to give indoor air the energy it needs to restore itself. This process virtually eliminates pollutants in the air, on surfaces and even in fabrics, providing odor and germ control. The unit uses very little energy and cleans your air 24/7 for less than a penny a day.The unit is said to eliminate spills, urine and odors from carpet, upholstery, mattresses and more. They say that it can virtually eliminate human or pet urine from fabrics within 30-60 minutes. It can be used on spilled milk, gasoline and other germ or odor concerns in your home, business or  vehicle (it comes with a car adapter that plugs into the cigarette lighter).My only concern about the CritterZone was the issue of ozone. The unit emits a faint ozone smell when it is in operation, similar to what you would smell during a thunderstorm. Some air purifiers on the market are ozone generators, and there are safety concerns around the levels of ozone these machines generate.

The FDA requires ozone output of indoor medical devices to be no more than 0.05 ppm. The Critterzone produces less than 0.01 PPM of ozone.I absolutely love this unit. I’ve shied away from larger air cleaners because they require frequent cleaning, as well as purchasing replacement filters, not to mention that they take up space. This small, efficient unit gets the job done!At $99, this is a bit of an investment, but it will save you from having to buy bottles of odor eliminator, and remember that you will never have to buy replacement filters.
