What kinds of smells does Smell Away remove?
The purifier tackles everyday odours including cooking, damp, mould, pet smells, and cigarette smoke. It also deals effectively with tobacco, vaping, and cannabis-related odours. Most common indoor smells are managed quickly and efficiently.
Are there smells it cannot remove?
Smell Away does not work with formaldehyde, acetone, or strong acid vapours. These fumes are considered toxic and require professional handling. The purifier is designed for safer household and workplace odours only.
How is Smell Away different from standard air purifiers?
Typical air purifiers only filter particles and cannot eliminate smells. Smell Away® works by targeting odour molecules in vapour form, making it more effective at removing unwanted scents while also handling dust and allergens.
Can the Smell Away be used outdoors?
No, the unit is designed for indoor use in sealed environments. It performs best in homes, offices, or other enclosed spaces, much like heating or air-conditioning systems. Outdoor use will not provide results.
How much air does the device process?
Smell Away can process up to 100 cubic metres per hour. This is roughly the size of a very large room, making it suitable for both home and professional environments.
How much electricity does it consume?
The unit uses only 14 watts, similar to an energy-saving light bulb. Running costs are extremely low, averaging less than half a penny per hour at common UK electricity rates.
Is it safe for children and animals?
Yes, the purifier is safe around both children and pets. The carbon used is non-toxic, and the design complies with British Standards, preventing small fingers from reaching the fan inside.
How noisy is the purifier when running?
The device runs very quietly, with sound levels measured at 52 decibels. This is quieter than trickling water and will quickly blend into the background of everyday life.
How long does the filter last?
Depending on usage, filters can last several years without performance issues. Units tested continuously since 2021 have shown no loss of efficiency, and replacement filters are available for purchase when required.
What delivery options are available for orders?
Delivery is free within the UK and Republic of Ireland, usually arriving in 1–2 days. European orders take 2–5 days, while global deliveries arrive within 2–7 days using DPD services.
