Does anyone know if air filters or purifiers help COPD? With spring on its way I thought maybe it could help with the pollen...

Hi @fourwinds, thank you for opening this discussion. Let me tag some other members who can possible share with you!

Hello everyone, how are you today? 😊

Do you know if air purifiers or air filters can help with COPD? Have you used one yourself? Has it helped you breathe easier? If so, can you recommend a particular model or device?

Take care,

From the amount of dust they collect I'm sure they help clean the air I breathe. I have just ordered another for the bedroom. I have paid under £100 for each and they work well. More expensive machines presumably work. much better.
