I’ve been thinking about getting an air purifier for my apartment since I have terrible allergies year-round. I know they help with pollen and dust, but I’m wondering — can air purifiers actually be connected to HVAC systems? Would that make a noticeable difference in the air quality throughout the whole home, or is it just better to use standalone units in each room?
Yes, air purifiers can be integrated with HVAC systems, and it often results in much better coverage and improved indoor air quality. Instead of relying on separate units in each room, which only clean localized areas, a purifier attached to the HVAC system treats the air throughout the entire home. I recently read a helpful article on this exact topic: https://www.naludamagazine.com/do-air-purifiers-really-work-with-hvac-systems/
I’m not using an air purifier yet, but I’ve been reading about them a lot. Some people swear by them for allergies or city pollution, while others say they only help in certain conditions. I think it really depends on your environment and health needs. I like the idea of combining one with an HVAC system, but I’d probably start with a portable one first just to test the difference it makes in a single room.
