160

As others have stated, you want separate units. More can go wrong with a unit that has several features, and then it gets really pricey to replace it. I personally like Coway airfilters, something like the 150 or 160 has great value in my opinion. A heated blanket or foot warmer is a great option if

Yeah, wildfire smoke is rough. The main thing is True HEPA - that's what actually catches the tiny smoke particles. I've been using the Levoit Vital 200S-P. It's got a smoke CADR of 250, auto mode, and sleep mode is super quiet (24dB). Around $180. Coway AP-1512HH is also a classic - people have bee

Coway makes excellent air purifiers around $160. They're small and will radically reduce dust, though it may take several weeks.

I wouldn't keep a purifier in the bathroom because of the very high humidity spikes. Laundry room should be okay so long as relative humidity (RH) is below 85%. If it's tiny, you may not really need a purifier there at all. Generally, purifiers in kitchens are not an ideal solution; the best is a ve

Unless you buy used, it's really difficult to find a purifier that handles particulates and long-term gases/vapors/odors, especially when you have a small budget. This is because you need at least 3-5 lbs. of sorbent media (activated carbon, activated alumina, or synthetic zeolites) for gases/vapors

We need to calculate room volume since your ceilings are higher than 8 feet. This is covered under the "CADR Particulate Types and Sizing" heading in our How To Choose An Air Purifier for Particulates [Comprehensive Guide]. Bedroom: 160 sq. ft. × 10 = 1,600 cubic feet volume. 1,600 cu. ft. ÷ 8 ft. =

To start, apply the AHAM 2/3 rule described in the AutoMod comment. Since your ceilings are slightly higher, we have to calculate by room volume to get a "readjusted" coverage rating. 1,040.4 cu. ft. ÷ 8 ft. = 130.05 sq. ft. 130.05 sq. ft. ÷ 1.5 = 86.7. Round up to get bare minimum CADRs of 87 CFM.

Per the AHAM 2/3 rule (assuming an 8 ft. high ceiling): A 100 sq. ft. space needs minimum CADRs of 67 CFM. A 500 - 600 sq. ft. space needs minimum CADRs of 334 CFM - 400 CFM. However, you may need even higher CADRs due to allergy severity and cat dander. We generally recommend Coway first as it's on

There are some Black Friday [BF] deals already, but I think there may be more to come in the week leading up to Thanksgiving or BF. I would generally recommend Coway first. They're one of the highest quality consumer-grade brands. I think their larger and more powerful models may not be discounted y

For odors ventilation may help more than an air purifier. Opening windows on occasion, using fans to move air out + new air in. Your exhaust is usually in the vent above your bathroom. Where "old" air will get sucked out. You also might have another vent above your oven, the hood range. (Which has a
