FAQ

Are the bags reusable?
Yes! The bags can be reused for up to 2 years. Just remember to place the bag in direct
sunlight for at least 1 hour per month to recharge and rejuvenate. After 1 hour, place the bag
back in your space and it will start absorbing odors just like new!
Should I place the bag in the sun immediately after receiving it?
No. The PureGuardian Charcoal bags begin working immediately after opening.
How do I recharge the bag during the winter months?
The bamboo charcoal bags only need UV light in order to recharge, the temperature outside
does not matter. As long as the bag is in the direct sunlight for at least 1 hour, once a month,
your bag will rejuvenate. Although the summer months may increase the speed of the bag
recharging, it is still completely possible to recharge the bag outside during the winter months.
Can I recharge the bag in the microwave or the stove?
No. The bag cannot be used in a microwave or oven. The bag does not recharge on heat, solely
UV rays.
Is the charcoal bag safe around children and pets?
Yes. 0 chemicals, 0 toxins, making it safe to use around pets and children, but we do highly
recommend keeping the bags out of reach of pets and children so that the bags do not break or
tear!
How long does it take for the bag to start working?
The bamboo charcoal air purifying bags starts absorbing odors the second it is pulled out of
packaging. Bamboo charcoal absorbs odors like a sponge, pulling odors from the air and
trapping it in the bags pores. The bamboo charcoal bags do not give off any scents or smells, so
it may be difficult to tell at first.
Are the bags recyclable?
Yes, the bamboo charcoal bags can be recycled after 2 years of use. The bag can be opened
and the bamboo charcoal inside can be mixed with soil. The moisture held inside the pores are
released into the soil when it is dry, providing aeration for grass, plants, and vegetables. This
can help roots grow deeper and produce a stronger lawn or plant.
