Ionic breeze quadra disturbing smell?

I’ve had my ionic breeze for awhile and really liked. It gave off a nice fresh air smell. I stopped using it (kinda forgot about it when I moved) for about a year. I then plugged it back in and ran it continuously for a week or more. Cleaning it when needed. All the sudden it started giving off this bizarre odor. I can’t really describe it except for it almost smells like dirty dish water. I stopped using it for about 8 more months because of this and then started using it in the room with my birds. It gave off the same smell. I cleaned it over and over and no difference. I decided if I ran it continuously maybe the smell would "work its way out". That hasn’t happened. Now after some googling I found out it is potentially unsafe. The stuff I read said it was ozone, but the ozone gave off the fresh smell. So what is giving off this terrible smell? It gives me headaches and now I’m worried for myself and my birds (2 budgies and a cockatiel). In the future should I go with an air filter/hepa filter etc? Thanks for any info about this mystery smell and a good course of action.

Remedies for headaches - at the office?

I get sinus/allergy-related headaches all the time. They are usually due to sinus pressure, but triggers include any unusual smell, such as recently laid tar, perfumes and colognes, even my hand sanitizer. Also, breathing in cold air gives me an instant head ache. As I describe it, the air is going up and feels like its freezing my brain. I get these head aches at least once a week and they are usually throbbing, light sensitive, temperature sensitive, and movement senisitive often accompanied with nausea.

I have tried taking all forms of prescription medications, such as Allegra-D, Zyrtec-D, and even behind-the-counter Claritin-D for my allergies, but to no avail.

I have been taking many different types of headache aspirins, but these work only about half the time. Moreover, I am afraid if I take aspirin too often and too regularly, it could be detrimental to my health.

Does anyone know of ways to ease headaches that is natural and can be used at the office? Not herbal, per se, but techniques that I can use to at least make the headache stop throbbing?

I’ve tried massaging my temples and massaging the pressure point between my thumb and index finger, but that doesn’t really help.

What is the best type of air purifier to use in a 250 sq. ft. area?

I work at a manufacturing company and I am having too many problems with sinus infections, headaches, and breathing problems. I need something that is cost-effective and that really will work since I will probably have to purchase it myself.

Scents trigger migraines, what type of air purifier should I buy?

Filed under: Air Purifier — Tags: , , , , — admin @ 10:22 pm

I work in a small office and most people are very considerate, but sometimes we get clients/customers with perfume. Because of my migrianes, I'm extremely sensitive to the mildest perfumes. I've been thinking of getting an air purifier for my office. Any suggestions. Help…I constantly get headaches/migraines.
