BreatheSmart 45i

If you’re dealing with dust, honestly I wouldn’t even look at a purifier yet. You need a vacuum upgrade. Dust particles are too heavy for any purifier to suck in from across the room. Check out r/vacuumcleaners. But Something corded and bagged (yeah old school) but it will make a monumental differen

Yeah, I could get 2 x 45i for the same price as 1 x 75i at current sales, and the 2 x 45i would give me more CADR with less noise, since 2 x 45i at speed 1 gives a CADR half-way between speeds 2 & 3 with 1 x 75i (and better coverage, since I could put them at two different locations in my room).

For VOC's + odors Austin Air is very good but you would need to pay about 750 (they might have a cheaper one ?). That's one of the best, and probably worth it for your health imo. As you aren't even sure what your triggers are possibly, you want to get something very good. So those have a very large

Re: dust, this is frequently asked. Air purifiers aren't good at removing visible dust as it's large and heavy compared to something like PM10, PM2.5, or PM0.1. See the sticky post at the top of this subreddit and our FAQs wiki page entries: I need an air purifier for dust. What should I buy? Why is

thank you so much - this is incredibly helpful!! Sounds like Alen 45i which you orignally recommended might be the best choice for me :-)

Great...although I just noticed about your 12 feet cielings not being in the 400 sq. Ft...meaning it's really more than 400 for the calculations. In which case an Alen 75i would be an even better choice. Or perhaps one of the other more powerful units. If you do get the 45i make sure you let it run

I second the 45i is a great unit, and they are sold at some hardware stores and such. However I would also suggest getting the IQ AIr or Austin Air as well - as those are even better for VOCs - with many more pounds of carbon/charcoal pellets to absorb VOC gasses. Alen will be the the best you can f

IQ Air is one of the best as the Health Pro Plus Xe I think does a good 300ish CFM while also having I think 15 pounds carbon pellets + related to absorb odors/VOCs/smoke etc. Although if your allergies are purely particulate based you can get 400CFM of particulate coverage for like 90 bucks with a

I dont own any Winix or Coway, so I'm not sure each unit at each price. They all have similar sized units competing with each other though. Their websites will have all their models. If you want to try the ionizer, maybe get a Winix, just make sure it has the "P" plasma button on it to toggle it on/

I like the Alen brand, I use thier 35i and 45i for 1400sqf with 2 cats and .
