<h1>Air Purifiers for Dog Hair: HEPA Filters More Important Than Carbon for Allergy Relief</h1>

When you’re trying to remove airborne dog hair to cut down on allergies, one of the first things you think of is to buy an inexpensive air purifier. And that’s a smart move because most air purifiers will do a fairly good job of removing the dog hair from your home, rooms or other indoor spaces. There are a couple of important considerations, however, that can make a big difference in how much allergy relief you actually get and how much you have to spend: 1) the quality of the filters, and 2) the output or cubic feet of air that the unit is cleaning, per minute (CFM). 

 

First, buying an inexpensive or cheap air purifier usually means you’re going to get air cleaning that is ‘ok’, but still leaves some of the hair, dust, and dander in the air for you to breathe. This is because the filters are usually not up to true HEPA standards and the filters sometimes do not fit snugly in the unit and that allows polluted air to blow around the filters and out into your room. To control or prevent allergies from dog hair (and dander), you have to remove the larger hairs and all of the tiny hair fragments—and the only way to do this consistently is to use a true HEPA filter that has been tested to remove well over 99% of all particles down to 0.3 microns in size.

 

Second, the output of the pet air purifier or whatever air cleaner that you choose needs to be at least 200 CFM or so. Many people buy a pet air purifier that is too small for the room or amount of air to be cleaned, with an output that is less than 200 CFM. That means the unit cannot cycle all of the air fast enough to remove all of the dog hair before you breathe it, which means it won’t help your allergies very much. It is best to buy an air cleaner with at least 200 CFM (more if possible) because the air purifier will then be able to cycle all of the air in an average 10×10 room in about 4 minutes, which is fast enough to make a difference.

 

A third consideration is that if you don’t really have a lot of odors, you don’t need a pet air purifier with a lot of carbon, so don’t pay for that extra filtration if you don’t need it. There are several excellent, top-rated HEPA pet air cleaners that are much cheaper or inexpensive, such as Blueair and Winix, that do an excellent job of removing dog or other types of pet hair without spending 30-40% more on heavy carbon filters. Our two best recommendations for the most affordable air purifiers for dog hair are the Blueair 403 and the Winix P450–both of which have excellent HEPA filters, a strong output, have cheap replacement filter costs, and don’t cost a fortune. If you stay with the best top-rated air purifier brands such as Blueair, Winix or Aller Air and choose the HEPA versions for hair, dust, & dander removal, you’ll save a lot of money and get a lot more allergy relief.
