So our whole family has allergies to dust and that. We need to get an air cleaner sort of thing.<br><br>
What is the best model to get. What is the cost?<br><br>
I didn't want to get an ionic one, because I have heard that they emmit large ammounts of ozone.<br><br>
(We have a cat, also, if that matters. So we are hoping that will help with her hair, although it doesn't appear that any of us are allergic to it)

Absolutely avoid ionizers and ozone generators.<br><br>
Opt for HEPA standard filtration.<br><br>
There are several brands. I have two older Honeywell Enviracaire units. One is at least 12 years old, the other is at least seven. Both run well, but are noisier than modern units. They have a charcoal prefilter (changed at least once every three months) and a HEPA internal filter (changed every 1-3 years).<br><br>
I buy my replacement filters at National Allergy Supply. You can browse their website and look at the different models for sale. I have no affiliation with the company--just a happy repeat customer.<br><br>
You can also look for reviews in Consumer Reports. Your local library probably subscribes.
