Chemical sensitivity problems: Before we address all odor problems, we'd like to bring up one that is getting more and more frequent. This entails people who are sensitive to perfumes or other odors in a working environment. Our zeolite pouches are extremely effective at helping solve this problem, but they must be used in a particular way.

For extracting perfumes, odors, and gasses from the air, the air must continually pass over and through our Zeofresh pouches. Merely hanging a pouch in one corner of a room will not suffice. This requires circulation, and sometimes multiple pouches. At least 2 pounds per 250 square feet is required. In addition, a small fan of some kind must be utilized. Hang or stand one or more pouches and point the fan directly at them. This will eventually move all the air in a room through the absorbent granules in the pouch(es). On weekends or days when you are out of the office, remove pouch(es) from the area and place in a warm, dry area to recharge them. A sunny windowsill is optimum. This will assure that the pouches are always as their maximum strength.

Central Heating/Air -Whole House System

If you have a central heating/air system, you can easily harness the power of Zeofresh pouches for your entire home, continually removing odors, smoke, mold spores, gasses, and chemical vapors from the air. Here's how: Count the number of heating/air vents in your home. Don't forget to check walk-in closets, laundry, bathrooms, etc. Now divide that figure in half. That is the number of Four-Packs pouches you will need.  In addition, order two one pound pouches.

Using bailing wire, nylon zip ties, or some other kind of strong, flexible wire, attach one 4-ounce pouch inside each vent grate, and attach one 1-pound pouch to the inside of your large, intake vent. (This is usually located in the ceiling, near the center of your house). Note: You must attach the pouches securely to the grates to avoid them falling out into your face the next time you remove the grates*! Place the other half of the pouches in a warm, dry place. Every 3 months, swap out the pouches in your vent with the spare set you have stored. Place the used pouches outside on a sunny day. They will discharge their absorbed pollutants and recharge to be used again and again. After discharging, place the pouches in a plastic bag and into the warm, dry storage area.

* If your room vents are in the floor, you need not attach the pouches, simply stand them inside the floor vents. You can also use additional / larger pouches in the floor vents as there is no danger of them falling.

Being creative with the airflow direction can help. For instance, if you work at a desk or in a cubicle and can position the fan and pouches so the treated air is directed toward your working area, you can further minimize objectionable odors. Some have even hung our pouches inside a box with the ends cut off and directed the fan into the box. Just keep in mind that the object is to circulate the air through the pouches so they can absorb as many odor molecules as possible.

Whenever using our pouches, never constrict the flow of air. For example, if hanging in a closet do not hang between clothing where the material keeps air from getting to the pouch.

For outgassing, such as the vinyl smell in an RV's icebox or refrigerator, keep a pouch inside the appliance and try to stand it up as vertically as possible for maximum exposure.
