Air purifiers
An air purifier traps dust, pollen and fine particles, provided its airflow suits the size of the room: an undersized unit runs flat out and becomes noisy. The filter type matters, with a HEPA filter for particles and activated carbon for odours. The price and availability of replacement filters add up over the years. Ionisers and colourful air quality displays count for little.
