My wife and I just welcomed a new puppy into our home around Christmas. Shes a tad allergic to dogs, but the allergist stated that as long as the dog was never allowed in the bedroom we should be safe. We’re both allergic to dust, dust mites, and mold. Something that our current residence struggles with. Given all of this, I finally decided to ‘man up’ if you will and try getting a hepa filter to ease some of our problems.

What we found was amazing. The Honeywell 18155 SilentComfort Permanent, True HEPA Air Purifier is amazing. It’s quiet at High, and almost silent at medium and low. It’s filtration capacity is 210sq feet. It’s not big enough for the whole house, but it does wonders for our bedroom. It cleans enough air that we can leave the bedroom door open at night so we don’t freeze from a lack of a heat source in the bedroom.

I have no scientific data, air quality tests, etc to prove it works. What I do have, is the clear fact that every morning since we’ve had the Honeywell 18155 SilentComfort Permanent, True HEPA Air Purifier, I have woken up less stuffed up (if at all) then I ever have in my life. We’ve had it for about 2 weeks now, and I’m already considering buying the bigger brother model that we have at work to help clean the air in the rest of the house.

The purifier comes with a small strap-like charcoal prefilter that wraps around the intake on the bottom. The air is then pushed out the HEPA filter at the top, which only needs vacuuming twice a year. Afraid you’ll forget to clean it? Don’t worry, the purifier comes with little indicator lights when it’s time for maintenance. Making the Honeywell 18155 SilentComfort Permanent, True HEPA Air Purifier easy to set, and um, forget. ;-)
