Our air quality expert tells you how to find, use, and maintain your home air purifier.
I know I’m being a bad guest, but I am in the service of a greater good. Depending on what I find, I will fight the urge to tell you that your air purifier is too small to effectively clean the room, or that the purifier shouldn’t be placed against a sofa or a wall, or that the filters need to be changed, or worse—the plastic encasing the filter was never removed when the purifier was first purchased. This urge to give unsolicited indoor air advice goes deep.
What’s a person to do? Buy a purifier that can clean at least double the square footage of your bedroom on its highest setting, so when you do have the purifier on sleep mode, you have at least four air exchanges per hour. Sometimes companies are explicit about how many air exchanges happen at certain settings, sometimes they only list the maximum, and occasionally they are opaque. You may find yourself doing online sleuthing to find the answers you need.
