Air purifier to reduce dust in my room…?
I am looking for an air purifier that will reduce the amount of dust my room accumulates. Not just for the fact that I have a lot of expensive electronics in my room, but also because I seem to always have allergies. My room is about the size of an average college dorm room (not very big) so I am looking for like a table top one or something for less than 0. I was looking into that ionic breeze, however it got a good deal of negative reports especially from consumer reports. Anyone have any recommendations?
Try duct taping a 20" x 20" ‘high filtration’ furnace air filter ($5-$10)
to the discharge side of a 20" box fan ($12-$18).
It works well on dust… even helps w/cigarette smoke.
Be careful w/ozone – a lil goes a long way…
A humidifier will also help to keep the dust to a minimum.
I bought a Honeywell purifier for a friend of mine whose son has undergone major heart surgery and needs to stay healthy. The unit itself was large…definitely not table top. I initially went in to buy another brand but was warned by the sales associate that the filters were difficult if not impossible to replace (why no one will stock it Canada i have no idea). She suggested this model that you vacuum instead. The only other suggestion I have is that you do not place the unit near you when you sleep as the machine draws all the air impurities towards it and you might be inhaling it while it runs.
