An Easy-to-Build #CorsiRosenthalBox Using Modular #PCFan Systems
Jim Rosenthal
October 21, 2023"The first Corsi-Rosenthal Box was built in August of 2020. It was presented as an #OpenSource' concept so that as many people as possible could have low-cost cleaner, safer indoor air. It is based on sound engineering principles, but it is really very simple. Use 4 (or 5) MERV 13 filters in a 'box' configuration with a box fan. The best thing is – it works! Consequently, many thousands have been made all over the world.
It has also been very enjoyable to see the continuous stream of ingenuity, creativity, and knowledge that has been expended to create a 'better' Corsi-Rosenthal Box. Much of this was out of necessity since many countries in the world do not have the same filters and fans as we have in North America. Many really smart and creative people have developed designs of the CR Box concept that work with the fans and filters available in their countries.
We have also had many people in North America who have contributed to the development of a “better mousetrap” of a DIY air cleaner. For effectiveness and low cost, it is very hard to beat the original box fan and “box” of filters design. But there have been many interesting modifications that have been shown to provide some real benefits. The most interesting of these is the use of PC fans to replace the box fan. The PC fans have the advantages of low noise and low energy usage but are not as economical or as easy to construct.
Here is another alternative – modular PC fan systems. A company by the name of AC Infinity (www.acinfinity.com) makes them. Their primary uses are for audio-visual cabinets and indoor horticulture. However, they provide low noise, high air flow and low power usage. In other words, they should work for Corsi-Rosenthal boxes. My initial tests confirm this conclusion. "
Note: I am not finding the fans on the AC Infinity website. I have found computer fans that can do the job on eBay and Amazon.

Do-It-Yourself #AirCleaners: Making Cleaner Air More Accessible
Published September 6, 2023
"Everyone should have the right to breathe clean air. However, during wildfires, the cost and availability of clean air technologies and reliable power sources can create challenges for people trying to protect their health from wildfire smoke. Recognizing these barriers, EPA and other health, environmental, and nonprofit organizations have provided instructions and materials for creating do-it-yourself (#DIY) air cleaners. DIY air cleaners are a more affordable and accessible alternative to commercial versions and can be constructed using a box fan and a high-efficiency home air filter. Securing the filter to the fan creates an effective, simple air cleaning system.
"This DIY solution filters out smoke particles and improves indoor air quality, but its use has raised key questions about the devices’ safety and effectiveness. EPA scientists and their colleagues are conducting research to answer these questions.
" 'This research was highly anticipated, particularly by EPA’s western regions, who have suffered from terrible wildfire smoke for years without the ability to recommend more affordable air filtering options to the public,' noted Meredith Bauer, Assistant Director of EPA Region 9’s Air and Radiation Division. 'It is important that we develop tools that allow everyone to protect themselves and their families when wildfire smoke is in the air.' "

" 'This research was highly anticipated, particularly by EPA’s western regions, who have suffered from terrible wildfire smoke for years without the ability to recommend more affordable air filtering options to the public,' noted Meredith Bauer, Assistant Director of EPA Region 9’s Air and Radiation Division. 'It is important that we develop tools that allow everyone to protect themselves and their families when wildfire smoke is in the air.' "

#AirQuality plummets in #Boston, #Toronto as thick wildfire smoke shrouds the sky for millions
Smoke from wildfires burning in Ontario have caused air quality to reach unhealthy levels across #Canada, and the northeastern and midwestern United States. And it could get worse before conditions improve.
By Brian Lada, Jul 15, 2026
Excerpt: "Toronto had some of the worst air quality in North America on Wednesday morning, reaching 'very unhealthy' levels with an AQI of 220. 'Health effects will be immediately felt by sensitive groups and should avoid outdoor activity,' Plume Labs said. 'Healthy individuals are likely to experience difficulty breathing and throat irritation.'
"In Boston, air quality reached 'unhealthy' conditions on Wednesday morning with an AQI of 147. Little improvement is expected in the city into Thursday. "

#CookCountyMN YMCA opens #CleanAirShelter
By WDIO
July 15, 2026"#WildfireSmoke has pushed air quality in Cook County and northeast #Minnesota into the hazardous category, prompting local officials to issue an urgent public health warning.
"At this critical level, the air is unsafe for everyone, not just individuals who are traditionally sensitive to smoke. Local residents and visitors are urged to take these conditions seriously by staying indoors, avoiding outdoor physical activity, and wearing a well-fitting #N95 or #KN95 mask if they must step outside.
"To help the community seek relief, Cook County Public Health has opened a clean air and #CoolingShelter in the lobby of the Cook County YMCA. The shelter is open Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, and Saturday from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM."

Ayuh... And my friends with asthma are stuck indoors. Be safe friends!
#Wildfire Smoke Spreads Across the #Northeast as Temperatures Spike
A heat dome is responsible for miserably high temperatures, and it’s also helping to push smoke from wildfires to the east.
By Judson Jones and Mark Walker
July 15, 2026"From the windows of office buildings across Manhattan, the blue sky turned hazy on Tuesday as wildfire smoke from #Canada and the #GreatLakes slipped across the Northeast, prompting alerts in some places about poor air quality.
"The haze is expected to continue on Wednesday, and even to worsen in some places, as the same heat dome that is pushing temperatures close to 100 degrees across much of eastern Canada and the United States traps the smoke from faraway wildfires close to the ground.
"In New York, city officials warned of 'the possibility of deteriorating air quality' throughout the day Wednesday, but noted that even the most severe forecasts for did not approach the levels seen in 2023, when the Canadian wildfire smoke sent the city’s air quality index surging to dangerous levels. Still, they said, echoing the warnings of officials across the region, people with health conditions that make them sensitive to polluted air should take caution.
"The heat dome, an area of high pressure in the atmosphere, was visible on satellite imagery on Tuesday as an area of clear sky over the middle of the country, where the surrounding air moves clockwise. On the ground, it manifests as a hot, humid and smoky stew that can make just stepping outdoors an unpleasant task.
"Across much of the United States and southern Canada, weather officials have placed tens of millions of people under heat warnings, with high temperatures from the upper 90s to above 100 degrees expected in many places on Wednesday."The National Weather Service said that nearly 100 million people from the Dakotas into New England would be under its 'major' or 'extreme' warning levels for dangerous heat. Environment Canada, the country’s weather service, said that, through Wednesday, southern Ontario would be under an orange alert, the second most severe in its three-tier system."
