I recently stayed in an apartment that didnt have central air so I created a corsi-rosenthal box since the smoke from the Canadian wildfires were so bad.

After 30 days of continuous use, with very minimal periods of it being turned off, this is what the filters look like!

It’s disgusting yet also so satisfying to see the filters get darker from debris, dust, and dirt.

Edit: typos

    Long time ago I made my own activated carbon filter from plans I found online out of chicken wire, some duct parts, of course activated carbon, and pantyhose. got some funny looks when buying that last one, but it worked like a freaking charm.
