Guest guest Posted October 11, 2005 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 When living with a smoker (which I would never do) ionic air cleaners get clogged. One needs to have they type of air cleaner which allows to to change the ion emitters. Changable or cleanable filters also helps. Alobar ..

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2005 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 I recently sold my Ionic Breezes - Consumer Reports Magazine did a good article 2 months ago on the efficacy of these air " purifiers. " I had them about a year and noticed an increase in my allergies and upper respiratory problems. Consumer Reports claims that the ionic effect can actually make your health worse, which it seemed to do in my case. They sold in a day after I put them in the paper because they are advertised as being so outstanding, but in fact, I think they are not good at all. This is just my experience but you may want to go to the library and check out the last few issues of Consumer Reports who did an excellent job evaluating these machines.

Now it seems like when I use it, it makes my upper chest uncomfortable, almost like it is congested. I didn't notice this until recently.
