I’d be curious if you reached out to them or vis versa as it sounds like you had indoor air quality concerns (IAQ) and that was their foot in the door? Anyhow, use the advice given above which is spot on for general IAQ. Also, if you have carpet make sure it’s cleaned on occasion as it’s a trap for contaminants. Doubtful, but if you have a smoker that is a real issue. Indoor plants are another concern if not properly taken care of. Air fresheners, laundry detergents, etc can be an allergen to some. There is nothing wrong with opening windows and doors occasionally (reference #9 above) as your house could actually be to air tight and letting in some fresh air (or air changes) is not a bad thing. I did not stay in a Holiday Inn but do have some IAQ experience in my current profession.

An in-home air purifier might be a better investment.

Sounds like a scam

Can you spell “snake oil”? These people pray on scientific ignorance.

I’m sorry this is garbage. Probiotics is a term used to describe in laymen’s terms bacteria we need in our guts to survive. They have nothing to do with air quality.

You can make your own probiotics at home and not pollute your house with one more unneeded systemdispensing unseen unproven stuff into the air.
From a Facilities Specialist, save your money and talk to professional nutritionalist, or doctor and stay away from the carpetbaggers and snake oil salesmen.

6. having no pets
7. never buying peanutbutter or strawberries or any nuts or nut butter
8. which allergens are you even talking about? Your house is LOADED with things that people can be allergic to, including the sponge you use to clean the counters.
9. don't ever open your windows or doors, ever, for any reason, ever. Many allergens are airborne and will infect the air you breathe before a pro-biotic ever has a chance to do anything.

Well said! This sounds like a scam. Well, of course, a lot of the ”probiotic” stuff is worthless, but this sounds worse than most. “Probiotics” are BACTERIA, whether or not they are beneficial. Why would any sensible person want to spray bacteria through your HVAC system? Consider what these “probiotics” in your yogurt doe in your intestine and what they smell like when they’ve sat in your large intestine for a few hours? They don’t smell like roses! There are people in this state who worry about Covid vaccines and say they are “unproven” even though they’ve been used on hundreds of millions of people. Spraying “probiotics” in your house! Talk about unproven!

BTW, when the sales rep was here we asked a ton of questions. Had doubts re the technology and effectiveness of course - Did NOT sign up. We left it that we want some referrals, actual customers in TV. He said that he'd get back to us on that. This was Wednesday....and nothing. If there is no feedback from him, very obvious that it's not worthy of a try or certainly purchase.

You are kind with your opinion.

[MidWestIA]

I am always tempted to ask if people plan to touch anything when they are in the store after watching them us wipes by the door. Before the covid shot I had gloves on anytime I went in

[Carlsondm]

I would ask to see the studies showing effectiveness of the “treatment”. You need to know what all residents will be exposed to if the system is installed. Do you have a particular problem that this system specifically addresses? Proven and well studied technology is usually effective and cheaper. Water filters and air filters such as hepa or MERV 8-11 and properly located, usually do the job. Reduce carpets and work with an allergist/ doctor to find triggers.

On the face of it this is a scam. You can't breathe a probiotic, you have to swallow it. What I find very concerning is that you allowed this "salesman" into your home. I think this is a huge red flag, the product he is selling is so ridiculous that I wonder if he was "casing the joint." Please be much much more cautious going forward. How did he even find you?

Not sure I'd advocate the above.

In order for you to have that opinion, you'd need to be possessed of critical thinking skills. So kudos to you - you understood.
