Does anyone use a HEPA air purifier for pet dander allergies? If so please let me know if it really helps.?
I live in a basement apt. and I have 3 cats. My nephew lives upstairs and he has bad cat dander allergies. We have an air purifier on the furnace but it does not really help. I am now thinking of getting one for his personal use in his bedroom. Does anyone know if this will help? I don't want to have to get rid of my cats, which is what they are asking me to do.Help.
I've had several HEPA filter units over the years due to my year-round pollen, dust and animal allergies. I had an Austin for about 5 years, and now have an IQAir HealthPro. The unit is on 24/7, at a fairly low speed because I don't want to be drowned out by it. My home office is also my bedroom, so I'm theoretically getting the benefits of it most of the day.
It's tricky trying to figure out how helpful the HEPA filter is. Overall, I'd guess it reduces my symptoms by maybe 20%. Unfortunately, the effectiveness of the device is reduced every time you open up your door and let (fresh) air in.
I'd say that getting a HEPA air filter device would be worth trying, but unfortunately I'd doubt that it's going to help your nephew much. We have two cats (Maine Coon), and they have to stay at the other end of the house, behind two doors. This actually seems to work pretty well at reducing the amount of cat dander in the rest of the house. But if i go into the part of the house where they live, or they escape and run through the house, I can definitely tell.
Maybe you can try a few things? Keeping the cats out of several rooms of the house that your nephew will be using as well as the HEPA filter in his bedroom.
Is he using any antihistamine med or nasal spray? Chances are that if he has cat allergies he also has other allergies - dust mites, mold, pollen. There are good over-the-counter med options today - Zyrtec perhaps being the strongest non-sedating option. Good luck!
