Air purifiers for garage
Do you have any air purifier in your garage? I have a kind of smell that's a mix of mold and fuel, can't figure out what is that. Thought would be nice if you advised me something. Really can't work in there for more than 1 hour

No, of course, I would not have such a problem if I had an air conditioning system.
I understand that that's the best option in the long term, but I watched the video about installing Vent-a-Garage system and speaking frankly, already choosing one of these things. It's $200, but for real, I saw this video and only all the equipment will cost me $500 |

The fuel smell I get but I’d try to figure out the source of the mold smell if you can - that’s not good and any air purifier is just going to mask a problem.

It don’t come easy.

I’d start by leaving whatever doors you have on it open for as long as possible. Can’t hurt.

I don't think air purifiers are the right options to use in garages if you are doing some real auto work there. Air purifiers only kill moulds, bacteria and fungus. I think it would be great if we use air filters in our garages because they can filter the air and capture 99.97% of contaminants and 0.3 microns size of contaminated particles. To discover more about the importance of indoor air quality you can read this article https://highperformancehvac.com/hvac...ity-pollution/. Withal, most of air cleaning products are being associated with HVAC products that means you will have to come with a good budget.
However, if you want to stick with air purifiers then Honeywell and BlueAir are my preferred option. We are using Honeywell air purifier for our living room. Though its price is reasonable but I don't like its high loud voice. |
