STIS: I am pretty sure the answer is No, but I am asking you Smarties here on ST.

My UV air purifier in my air conditioning unit will not protect us from chlorine in the air, right?

They are warning us here in Fulton County from the big fire a few days ago

However, starting Wednesday night, wind patterns may shift, possibly bringing smoke and airborne chlorine to our area through Sunday. Expect haze and a chlorine smell, especially in the mornings.

Important tips: • Limit outdoor activities and stay indoors if possible. • Keep windows and doors closed. • Those with heart or lung conditions should be extra cautious and follow their health care provider's advice.

Industrially they use specially treated, activated carbon based scrubbing media to remove chlorine from air -- (link) - JD Oct 2, 14:13 1
- I probably thought too fancy. But yeah, if activated carbon can't filter it, it probably can't be filtered. -- nm - Reagen Oct 2, 14:17
UV can split chlorine but that's not *better* exactly - Reagen Oct 2, 14:13 1

You're going to have to evacuate to Underground Atlanta for a few days. Might I recommend Gimmie Gimmie Disco at the Masquerade? -- nm - Qale Oct 2, 13:48 2

  - Isn't that above ground near Five Points and The Ritz? I ate there once pre-DragonCon. -- nm - Qale Oct 2, 13:55
did you check the makers Q&A's? ask them if there was no info in the Q&A? -- nm - Peglegpete Oct 2, 13:39 1
- Thanks, that is a good idea. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 2, 13:52
It's a difficult google but I did come across this that seems to indicate it *might*? - oblique Oct 2, 13:37 1
- Yeah everything I was finding on google was water, not air. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 2, 13:49
