Hello,

I am having issues trying to find an option to clean air before it enters a house in the event of a sour gas (H2S) leak at a nearby well. I keep finding industrial options and such but nothing residential or smaller scale.

Anything that could point me in the right direction of something that could be switched on to filter out the H2S or however it works would be terrific, thank you!

You need to pressurise your living space with fresh air from a remote safe location. Filtering the H2S is not a good option.

To scrub H2S out of the air you will need to look into some sort of a scrubber using a checmical process and possibly carbon beds. It won't be cheap.
