I used my CleanSpace for several hours on the farm on the weekend when I was cutting firewood in combination with my chainsaw helmet with its built in visor and ear muffs. The wood dust and wood chips from the chainsaw go everywhere and get well and truly up my nose and into my mouth. But with the CleanSpace I felt completely protected and whereas usually I'm "blowing" crap out of my nose for hours afterwards ... nothing! It's a great tool for woodcutting and as I'm finding, doing many jobs on the farm.

Using the mask and crawling into the hot cramped mouse ridden ceiling
The rain and good growth has seen the mice population explode. Our baits are working well which means lots of dead mice to get out from the farm house. They love the warm water heater and piping. I wore my CleanSpace and crawled in, moving through and trying to remove large nests of insulation. The smell was putrid with decaying mice and the air was thick with dust, mice hair, dried droppings...but I had clean fresh air the whole time which gave me assurance that I wasn't breathing anything horrid in. Oddly enough clean air made me feel wholly protected. When working in hot cramped areas with poor air (even with a dust mask) - its the clean air you miss most! The CleanSpace gave me fresh clean air and was compact enough to allow me to squeeze around and do the tricky work I needed to do.

My powered mask stopped hayfever and other respiratory symptoms when mowing long grass
Spent 2 long hours of mowing tall grass this afternoon. Didn't seem to be much dust as the grass was wet from heavy rain over the last 3 days. At first I didn't use the CleanSpace. However after 30 minutes I had a terrible attack of sneezing and coughing with watery eyes. I returned to the house and got the CleanSpace and wore it the rest of the afternoon. Wow! Stopped sneezing and hayfever symptoms completely. Brilliant!
