Hepa vs. Non-Hepa air filter?
I’m thinking of buying an air filter for my bedroom. I have a slight allergy to dust mites, which causes nasal congestion, but that’s it. I’m not that concerned with super-bacterial removal or anything.
So basically I want to get rid of dust mites, and help keep my air unscented because I share an apartment with a smoker.
I saw 2 Hamilton Beach filters for a good price, Hepa and non-Hepa. The Hepa is supposed to be better but it’s filters are expensive.
Would the non-Hepa filter be good enough for me, or should I just go for the Hepa?
Thanks.

You are wasting your time with all you speak of. I have allergies to dust and I purchased a Friedrich C90A and it has saved my life. It sits here beside me and does things I never thought it would do… is it expensive? Yes, but think of your health and how long you must deal with health issues. If this thing cost five thousand dollars I would have still purchased it. It cost 550. and is worth every penny. It’s a bit bigger than a CPU and has three filters systems within it. One of the biggest lies today is associated with air purifiers….most of them are complete and utter bologna……If you do research through consumer reports you’ll find the friedrich is the best, and then it goes up to the real expensive ones….this one is designed specifically for one room. good luck and be well, jack
