[FRIAM] Corsi Box

[Frank Chambers]

Kim Shanahan mentionedme in his real estate column in Sunday’s New Mexican and his writing gave memore credit than intended. I suggested the topic to him and supplied somereferences. Richard Corsi came up with the idea of using MERV 13 filters (5 ofthem to form a box for air being drawn into the fan) with a box fan as analternative to expensive air purifiers. Another friend thought it was my idea,too, so I submitted a letter to the paper to clarify and add a couple qualifiers.Some references:
