a hard rain’s a‐gonna fall.
to anyone in the areas impacted by the wildfire smoke, my #1 biggest piece of advice as someone whos been dealing with wildfire smoke in the NW united states for years, is build yourself a Corsi-Rosenthal Cube
they perform as well as expensive HEPA air cleaners, and are comparatively VERY inexpensive. all you need is a box fan, 4 air filters, a piece of cardboard, and some duct tape!!!!
i think it took us maybe a half hour to put ours together, if that, and we replace the filters every 3 months. it’s really made a HUGE difference, both when the air quality is bad, but also with our allergies
Saw these easy to read instructions on Twitter. Stay safe 💚
i made one of these once, they fucking rule
you can also tape one 20x20" filter to one box fan and it also works extremely well. or two in a triangular shape with two triangle cardboard sides. you don’t actually need four filter sides if you can only afford one filter at a time, the final filter is just more efficient and can move air better the more sides it has.
edit: do not tape the filter to the front of the fan. tape it to the intake (where the air goes IN) and make sure the arrows on the side of the filter that indicate which way the air should flow are pointing in the right direction
