Thanks for posting. To those buying, beware: BlueAir air purifiers have something called an "ionizer", which has been shown in multiple peer-reviewed studies to cause hazardous health effects.

If you're buying an air purifier, I recommend a Levoit or other non-ionizing air purifier brand.

Posting this because I'd want to be informed if I didn't otherwise know.

Can you mention which peer-reviewed studies?

There are literally hundreds of studies on ozone. Here's one for example

Ionizer does not mean ozone creator, but here is one of those peer reviewed studies. Always have to consider what they are studying vs what you are buying. https://phys.org/news/2021-03-unc...fiers.html (A link to the journal article is at the bottom of this summary article - http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2021.107750)

This is generally a misinformed comment. While all BlueAir filters do charge the air, they emit 5 parts per billion or less and are even certified in California.

The background level of ozone indoors is 4-6ppb, only 25% or so of the average outdoor value of 20-45ppb.
