Chemical vapors or gases in an enclosed space are not only aggravating in most cases, but many of them are quite harmful to your health. Chemicals like benzene, formaldehyde, hydrogen sulfide, various ketone-based chemicals and similar compounds can quickly cause a variety of unpleasant symptoms like eye, throat and respiratory irritation, skin rashes, nerve damage, cognitive dysfunction, difficulty breathing and more. For homeowners, these can be present from building material such as flooring or glues used in construction. For businesses, these chemicals can easily drift or get circulated by an air conditioner return from manufacturing or workshop areas and quickly pollute the air in many rooms and offices.
When these chemicals are present, the usual thought is to go find an air purifier to remove them. And that is often an effective strategy, other than taking steps to find the source of the pollutants and eliminate it and / or contain the chemicals better in work areas, etc. The important thing to remember, however, is that you must select the right type of chemical odor air purifier, for example, with the right media that will remove the chemicals in question AND effectively cover the space you have AND have filters that won't get used up in 2 weeks and leave you unprotected. Most people are unaware of this but when carbon filters become saturated (i.e. can't adsorb any more chemicals), the air just blows through the unit not being cleaned and it tends to circulate the polluted air even more.
To prevent this, you 1) have a professional help you select the carbon or other media blend that will remove the specific chemicals you're dealing with, 2) make sure that air cleaner has many pounds (50-100 or more) of that carbon or other media in the filter especially if it's an HVAC fume extractor, and 3) make sure the unit's output has high enough CFM to provide 5-6 air changes per hour (pretty much the minimum to have noticeably cleaner air)--but not too fast of an airflow because if the air goes through the machine too fast, the air won't spend enough time with the carbon and won't clean it that well.
HVAC duct fume removers are often a great approach to clean all of the air in a large space serviced by that HVAC system. If fumes are really bad, heavy etc,. many people will use portable air cleaners on the floor in conjunction with the HVAC fume extractor, which makes all the filters last longer and keeps the air cleaner.
