Like with a lot of other subreddits, people here can hyper fixate on a lot of tiny (typically non-consequential) things. And a lot of those things are often just rumors or speculation. Most of the common, well known air purifiers that have ionizers are CARB-Certified or Intertek. All of those air pu

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

Definitely avoid the PuroAir pictured here. It's astroturfed to death, not high quality, and the company tried suing a legitimate review website for an unfavorable review. I wouldn't buy the Dyson recommended by someone else either. Dyson is known for glossy marketing and poor performance for many o

I literally just got a new air purifier after doing an absurd amount of research, and the amount of information can be a bit overwhelming, especially when trying to find something bird-safe. So I'm hoping some of my research can help you avoid the amount of digging I had to do haha. I just got a Hon

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.
