2021’s Best Air Purifiers for Dog Homes

Air purifiers are a must have if you or someone in your family is allergic to pet hair or dander. Air purifiers work by pulling the air in your home through a series of filters. These filters catch and trap pet hair and dander, as well as dust and other allergens. Then, the purified air is circulated back into the room.

We have created a list of the best air purifiers for dog homes in 2021!

If you are looking for a small but mighty air purifier this model from Levoit is just the thing. This air purifier will, of course, tackle pet hair, dander, and smells but it also will free the air of any smoke, dust, pollen, and beyond giving you safe and fresh breathing air.

Best for Odors: Alen BreatheSmart Customizable Air Purifier with HEPA-OdorCell Filter

If you’re ready to make a serious investment in your air purifier, Alen BreatheSmart has a pedigree that’s worth the steep price tag. Designed by NASA airflow engineers, it’s capable of cleaning the air in spaces up to 1,100 square feet and features four filter options.
