We are looking for an freestanding Aircleaner(or two) for our home. we


have

tried the Ionic Breeze( not even sure where we got that thing), but it


needs

cleaning every couple of days and makes an irritating "arching" zap when
dirty which is irritating if it decides to do it an 2 a.m.
We also had one of the Orecks some years ago, but the motor went bad on it
and it would have been to costly to replace.

Anyway, is there a unit that does a good job that we would be able to wash
the filter out, or has filters that don't cost an arm an a leg to replace
every few weeks?

This doesn't need to be hospital grade air, just good cleaning and odor
removal.
Any suggestions?



If your Ionic Breezes are getting dirty after a couple of days, you need to
find the source of the dirt. My Ionic Breeze is good for ~500 sqft. Maybe
you need more than one IB?

If you think the zap is annoying try one of the fan powered cleaners,
HUMMMMMMMM all the time. Then comes the expense of the filters, or washing
them.



Hmmm,
Maybe smoker(s) in the house? My electronic cleaner mounted on the
heating system needs one cleaning per year.
