Air purifier.

[Jxdeeyy]

Hi, would someone be able to tell me if this air purifier is safe for birds? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Levoit-Purifiers-Filtration-Eliminator-LV-H132/dp/B071D58ZY5
Or if not could someone recommend me one thats not too expensive - my bird room isn’t massive so does not need to cover a large amount of sq ft.

Following! I have two Winix purifiers in my home that are for large rooms. I've been happy with their performance. I've since purchasd a 3rd to put in my bird room. I ordered the same kind for the sake of simplicity when changing filters. They're not expensive, but that's relative of course. They're $150 USD, which is reasonable for me as some purifiers can run quite a bit more.

To be honest, I didn't consider if they were bird safe or not. I wasn't aware some weren't. ‍

I have outlawed other "unsafe" items in my home now such as candles, teflon coated stuff (air fryer, rice cooker , clothing and hair irons) . Those have been relocated to the enclosed patio and used there now.

I didn’t realise either until after I’d bought one! I believe the ionizing kind are dangerous as they emit ozone, which can cause respiratory issues, even for people apparently! But I’m not sure what else to look out for, hopefully can get some advice

The unit you link to would be fine. Levoit are a trusted brand so if they state a product is ozone free then rest assured it is.
I'm due to buy new filters for mine but I'm looking at this one now - great performance for it's size.

Oh no! I had no idea. It seems the units I have do emit ozone, but the feature that does can be turned off. I think I'll be returning my new one to be on the safe side.

I used a Levoit just like the one you linked for several years until we upgraded to a Rabbit Air. We had no problems with it and still have it.

Okay brilliant, thank you. I’ll order that one then
