The main drawback with the device is having to use the wet filters and
it takes them a good twelve hours to dry and that's under a ceiling fan.
Don't want to trade filtered air for mold!
If you are using synthetic sponges for the filters, add a tablespoon of bleach to a pint of water - no mold.
Or, isopropyl alcohol - anything over about 6% will inhibit mold as well. You may use alcohol on natural (cellulose) fiber sponges.
