Puffin Air Purifiers

What pollutants?

When ventilation in our homes is inadequate or unavailable due to security, infrastructure, extreme temperatures, poor outdoor air quality, or other concerns, CO2, NOx, and other pollutants (which humans and other home equipment such as gas stoves produce) can quickly build up in our homes leading to headaches, tiredness, and lack of concentration. Puffin Air Purifiers captures these pollutants produced in our homes leading to healthier fresh indoor air, no window required.

Gas stoves emit unsafe levels of nitrogen dioxideA new study finds people in households with gas stoves are breathing unhealthy levels of a pollutant linked to childhood asthma, even in rooms far from the kitchen.

Is Your Gas Range a Health Risk? - Consumer ReportsIn its lab tests of gas range emissions, Consumer Reports finds high levels of potentially dangerous nitrogen oxide gases. See whether ventilation reduces those levels of those gases.

Have a gas stove? How to reduce pollution that may harm health - Harvard Health Cooking with gas stoves releases nitrogen dioxide and gas appliances introduce other toxic chemicals into homes, but people can take steps to protect their household and help improve outdoor...

Hypercapnia Accelerates Adipogenesis: A Novel Role of High CO2 in Exacerbating Obesity - PubMedObesity is a major risk factor for the development of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS), which manifest as intermittent hypercapnia and sustained plus intermittent hypercapnia, respectively. In this study, we investigated whether CO<sub>2</sub> affects adipocyt …

Physiological responses during exposure to carbon dioxide and bioeffluents at levels typically occurring indoorsTwenty-five subjects were exposed to different levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) and bioeffluents. The ventilation rate was set high enough to create a reference condition of 500 ppm CO2 with subjects p...

The effects of carbon dioxide exposure concentrations on human vigilance and sentiment in an enclosed workplace environment - PubMedIn this study, fifteen participants were exposed to different carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub> ) concentrations in an enclosed environmental chamber to investigate the potential effects of elevated CO<sub>2</sub> concentrations on human vigilance and sentiment. The psychomotor vigilance test (PVT), th …
