This review is from: Austin Air HEGA Allergy Machine Air Purifier 405 - Black (Kitchen)

The Austin Air HEGA Allergy Machine is great for the allergies, I've noticed a marked improvement in my allergy issues in the two days we've had it running in our home. I'm not so impressed with the "gas odor neutralizing" capabilities of this machine. The major reason we bought the unit and had it shipped 1 day was that we'd had new windows installed in our home, and the Polyurethane sealant they used on the windows has a strong odor. Fortunately the Window Company has chosen to "go green" and is using a "green friendlier" sealant, so while the odor is strong, there don't seem to be any headaches or other issues. BUT, back to my point, two days with the purifier running full power, and the "gas emission odor" is still quite strong.
