DIY activated carbon air purifier W/ PRE FILTERS! 2 Stage Bucket Air Filter! dust&odor removal!

My "Five Gallon Bucket" activated carbon "odor extracting" air purifier... now with Pre-Filtering! video shows how i added dust/lint/pollen and pet-dander Pre-Filtering to my latest unit... a 5 Gallon Bucket Activated Carbon "smoke, smog and smell" +odor/fume eliminating Air Filter! with the upgrade you've now got 2 or even 3 stage filtering. (the blue one) is a dust/lint pre-filter, another (the green/black one) is a 3 way odor control dust/lint/pollen and pet-dander pre-filter (electro-statically charged and antimicrobial). even use them both at the same time! no noticeable reduction in airflow. the unit still cranks. and both are washable and reusable! blue one is a 3M cut-to -fit type from lowes ($5.97). the green/black filter is a Dupont 3 way odor control one from walmart (about $9). rope is from harbor freight. *video also includes a 48 second "fast build" of the original unit. here's the link to the original "full build" video. it shows the complete build in detail. • DIY "Activated Carbon"...

I'm gathering the materials to make a 5-gal bucket 12volt AC. I LOVE your builds!

[@phartblossum]

Thanks for the informative video.
Questions:
1. How long is the granular charcoal good for?
The granules you poured in between the 2 buckets.
2. Do you just replace like every 6 months or 1 year?
3. Or do you base it upon when the airflow starts to become restricted?

Brilliant! You are so talented. Thanks for posting.

Hi
I like the idea you present here and am interested in building the project.
It has been over a year since it was built.
How is it working?
Did the Activated Carbon last 12 months?
Any lessons learnt since the original build?

[@immort_Draconis]

how effective is this? is there a vid where you can demonstrate its capabilities?

Always look forward to your videos !
Rolls of Pinky filters - for aquariums - are cheap. I don't know if they offered with carbon infusion versions.

[@NobodyImportant74]

if the air is humid does it not get wet? I mean activated carbon adsorbs water.
