I have 4 sharks purifiers and am disgusted every time i change the filters. Could be the pups, or the house..
Why need a pandemic to breath cleaner air?

Well at least the dust isn’t in the air, it didn’t make it into the filter but it’s half way there. If you turn it on it might finish the job.

I put the 99.99 true hepa filter on mine, and will only ever be using it for doing plant tissue culture or mycology work. A poor mans flow hood, that doesn't produce laminar flow, but is as good as working in a lab grade positive pressure clean room... which in my case, happens to be the 30-50 gallon clear recycling trash bags I attach to the output of the purifier unit, that keep it inflated with slits for the arm holes to reach in.. 
For actual air filtering in the house, multiple higher allergen/spores grade 20x20" furnace filters metal taped up to cheap 20x20" box fans, all around the place to circulate through the whole house. Works pretty good, and tests prove the cheaper furnace filters work decently to remove the majority of the contaminants from the air. I wouldn't expensive air purifier for a whole house, if I wasn't also running them, like pre filters. They work good enough for me though.

I love repurposing things. My father told me a story about how they converted a soft ice cream machine to mix a special paint formula. Engineers are cool.I put the 99.99 true hepa filter on mine, and will only ever be using it for doing plant tissue culture or mycology work.

Last night I had a random thought about running trim through an icee/slurpie machine to separate the hash, lol.

I bought the mini washing machine $60 Walmart. It was fun but I doubt I'll be doing that too often. Messy but worth it.
There's a French guy on youtube that shows the process.
