Info on Respirators

Please email someone about the N 95 or the P 100 respirators. I read in a newspaper article by Don Thompson of the Associated Press that states:

"Health officials have reported an increase in people complaining of eye and throat irritation and coughing. The poor air can also trigger asthma attacks and bronchitis. They said surgical masks, wet cloths and bandanas are not enough to filter the smoke. Only N95- and P100-rated masks filter out the smallest and most dangerous particles"

The respirator has a one way valve that lets you exhale but uses the filter to inhale. That way I don't re-breathe all that carbon-dioxide in again.
