Good to hear. Hope it keeps on trucking for you.
I’ve heard that you’d need a kiln to get the temps to clear it though no? And you could be right I have no way to test the quality other than my air is clear. How could you even tell? New stuff was dusty maybe but I fixed that with the vacuum too. Air smells just like it should.hang onto that old bag of carbon. It is of a way better quality than what you replaced it with. You can cook the old carbon off in an oven to reactivate it
Are you still running these? How are they holding up?Finally got to the Vivosun. I’m not impressed with how it’s put together though it’ll work for the veg space.
Same size filter with 1/2 pound or less carbon. I had a lot more trouble refilling it and don’t think I was able to get near the same amount in that was in to begin with.
I would definitely buy phresh again considering the rebuild and most likely be able to rebuild it forever.
Would love to see companies like Phresh to offer a rebuild package. Carbon, inner bag and new prefilter. Sold.
Anyway pics of Vivosun here.

Taking that plastic off reveals glue making things a pain

Tape the inside down because it’s not attached

There is no bag. Instead the inner wall is wrapped separately than outer.

I was able to pack it decently but it was uneven which wasn’t an issue with the Phresh. It’ll work for my purpose but I plan to pick up a new phresh eventually because the Vivosun was way harder and a PitA basically. Would not use this rebuilt Vivosun in the flower room other than an extra scrubber.
