Keep in mind that in many cases these purifiers could be used in office and/or small business locations as well. Also note that rooms vary in size from small to large as do homes. When
selecting a purifier, take square footage into account before making a final decision. Also, realize there is no "perfect fit"; aim to get the "best fit" possible. When in
doubt, get a slightly larger purifier then needed.

TOP SINGLE ROOM AIR PURIFIERS OVER 300 sqft
1st Place: IQAir HealthPro Plus [ Air Purifier Rating 79/100]
The HealthPro Plus offers high quality and the air cleaning power to tackle most residential air cleaning needs. It is a good sized unit and would look best in a larger room or larger open area. It will
effectively clean 300 sqft (at 6 air changes per hour), but could be stretched to accommodate a larger room, a smaller apartment, an office, or a business location. Maintenance is relatively
simple, but ongoing costs are higher. You will pay a little more for a purifier at the top of the list. Read full review for more details: Click Here for full review.

The HealthMate+ Superblend is simple to use and offers quality construction and good basic looks. It will effectively clean 500 sqft (at 6 air
changes per hour). Long filter life keeps maintenance time and costs down. A good purifier for medium sized spaces with an emphasis on "chemical" removal. This is the larger version

TOP WHOLE HOUSE AIR PURIFIERS
1st Place: Ecoquest Fresh Air [ Air Purifier Rating 84/100]
The Ecoquest Fresh Air stands out as a unique air purifier from a unique company. It uses Active technology which means the purifier actually reaches beyond the unit and cleans the air. This purifier is effective and can clean up
to 3000 sqft. The Fresh Air is cost effective to maintain, but does take periodic cleaning to keep working in top form. Read full review for more details: Click Here for full review.

The Ecoquest Breeze AT is another unique air purifier from Ecoquest. It is a lot like the Fresh Air in results, but is older technology and has
less bells and whistles. It uses Active technology which means the purifier actually reaches beyond the unit and cleans the air. The Breeze AT is effective and can clean up to 2500 sqft. This
purifier is cost effective to maintain, but does take periodic cleaning to keep working in top form. Read full review for more details: Click Here for full review.
3rd Place: Ecoquest Ecobox [Air Purifier Rating 82/100]
The Ecoquest Ecobox is the newest air purifier from Ecoquest. It is a lot like the Fresh Air, but on a smaller scale. It uses Active technology which means the
purifier actually reaches beyond the unit and cleans the air. This purifier is effective and can clean up to 1500 sqft. Generally I would recommend it for a small home, smaller apartment, or
dorm room. Larger homes can use it as an extension of a Fresh Air or for the basement. The Ecobox is cost effective to maintain, but does take periodic cleaning to keep working in top form.
