Default Air Purifiers

I'm thinking of getting one of those home air purifiers to rid my
house of dust. I can't figure figure out where the hell it comes
from. My home is vacuumed and dusted at least twice a week. Do these
things really work? I want to be totally rid of the dust. I'm looking
at the trion by fedders at home depot. Thanks as usual.


It should help reduce dust. If you want to reduce allergens get a HEPA
rated unit.

I might suggest considering what vacuum is being used. I greatly
decreased the amount of dust when I switched to a central vacuum system that
vented outside. You can also find HEPA filtered standard style vacuums.

I will strongly suggest that you don't consider getting the Sharper
Image scam filter. Sure it "helps" reducing dust, but so would waving a
damp cloth in the air. If you want to put 20 of them in a room, it likely
would give some reasonable amount of reduction, but one of those in a room
is not going to make an noticeable difference in the amount of dust.
