Use Air Cleaners Instead Of Allergy Medication

For allergy sufferers, I find that air cleaners really help me. I have one in the bedroom and one in the living room. Better than piling on the meds!

Buy the air cleaner with the highest room cleaning/hour rating you can afford.

The ionizer actually makes asthma worse, so you don't need a model with this feature.

I have a nice Kenmore Hepa Supreme Air that does a lovely job of cleaning the air. One in the living room and one in the bedroom. I only run them when I am in the room for any length of time. Seems to help a lot. Was told to do so by an asthma doc. Been using them for years.

Sears keeps filters in stock for discontinued models, so you won't have to pay shipping when ordering new filters in a few years. Every few months they have a coupon in their flyer for 5% (or more) off of anything in the store. Even better!
