HPA5350BC InSight True HEPA Air Purifier

Im doing good with Honeywell insight (largest size up to 500 sf). The filters arent cheap to replace but are HEPA & widely available. The only thing I don t like is you cant open it up to clean the vents.

Honeywell we use the big 500 sq foot one for main floor and the smaller 200 sq ft one for the bedroom leave them on low change filters every 4/6 months

I’ve tried a few and the germ guardians are the best bang/buck. The big Honeywell ones if you have to do a BIG space. We have a Dyson and I don’t love it.

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.

Honeywell HEPA. Don't buy an electrostatic/ionizer type "purifier" as it creates O³ (ozone) - which is hazardous (and is also a component of smog).
