Are air purifiers helpful?

[Wendy Mosman]

We need to do some remodeling that will involve flooring and cabinets.  I am researching affordable options that will not off gas formaldehyde. As an additional line of defense I am looking into getting an air purifier with carbon filter for VOC’s.  Has anyone used one that they like?

My family and several other transplant patients I know use BlueAir purifiers. Not sure if they have one with a carbon filter but you can peruse their website to see https://www.blueair.com/

We just purchased (for two apartments) two of these filters from National Allergy:

It’s a less expensive (store-brand, essentially) version of the Austin filter that an air quality inspector recommended for our house:

It was shipped from Austin, so there’s no question about who made it.
