I also have a couple of BlueAir and the scheduling feature for smart purifiers is very nice to have. I have it set to run on the lowest fan setting all the time which is so quiet it's undetectable, and ramp it up for a few hours in the afternoon right before we get home from work.
Multi level approach works well.
- Decent filter you change more regularly for your HVAC (agree with others that MERV shouldn't be too high)
- Clean floors, if you have carpet get a deep carpet cleaning annually
- Room air filters. I've had luck with Blue Air. Have one jig one for living room and some small ones for the bedrooms.
- Have you tried using regular saline rinses for your nose? I use the powder saline mixes with the plastic applicator from NeilMed, but there are others out there. While my allergies are pretty mild, I haven't needed to take any allergy medicine at all since using these.
Seconding Blueair!
We have a Levoit and a Blueair; while I have nothing bad to say about the Levoit, I personally prefer the Blueair (granted, it was about twice as expensive).
We've got two medium-sized dogs, and - aside from the clumps of dog hair under the baseboards - you wouldn't know that we had any pets!

Durable, effective for allergens/odors, but loud on high.
