Having my HVAC professionally cleaned and setting a reminder to change furnace filters regularly has helped me a lot. When my house was really bad I used the big Honeywell h300 or w/e it's called and it's been a really good machine. Two Honeywell H200's would probably do a better job. You need to keep fresh filters in them or they can make things worse, I think. I also have a Winix 500-2, it's okay but I wouldn't buy it again. I really wish they would put the charcoal layer behind the hepa since they're for smell anyway. I do like the washable pre filter. My house has an exhaust fan on the wall which I run occasionally which is nice to exchange all the air in the house. I run that while I wet mop/swiffer and clean/dust the house.

Honeywell makes some good air purifiers that are quiet and have a dimmer function for nighttime. A little more expensive, but reliable. I have an HPA200 and HPA 300 that have been running 24/7 for years.

I have a Honeywell HPA200 and HPA300 that have been running almost nonstop for 7 years. You can find generic brand filters on Amazon that are relatively affordable as well.

I was wondering the same thing. I own two Honeywells, the HPA-100 and 200 that I got for free. They're discontinuing that line, but I just replaced one through eBay because I like them so much. Normally they're super quiet and move a ton of air. The best thing is that they both take the same filters so it's all interchangeable. I saw the new models, and they look sleek, but I didn't want anything with an app, and I wasn't sure if the parts were as good as the old ones.

Yes. I have Honeywell HEPA units in multiple houses. 24/7.

Yes, an air purifier helps. The best brand is Honeywell with a HEPA filter. Second is Bionaire with True HEPA filter (purple one), third is Bionaire with the blue filter. Levoit kind of sucks. Don't waste your money on the Pure Enrichment Personal Air Purifier.

For reasonable VOC removal there are only 4 players I know in the market which offer products which have the minimum 10 pounds of sorbent media: Airpura, Allerair, Austin, IQAir. Wildfires product a huge mix of chemicals - from the vegetation, contents of burned buildings, etc. There is no consumer solution that removes all VOCs. Each type of media is better at some chemicals, not so good or not effective at all with others. For the same reason there is no sensor that I know that will give you the level of all VOCs. These machines and filters tend to be expensive. I just upgraded my Austin units with Immunity Machine filters which cost \~$700 each. We were spared wildfire smoke this season but with AQI numbers breaking 100 I was able to keep my indoor values close to 0. I use Austin and IQAir VOC machines along with Honeywell and Whirlpool HEPA units, 3 filters per room.
