Bedroom Air Purifier Placement Guide

Why Placement Matters

An air purifier in the wrong spot can be 40-60% less effective. Airflow patterns, room geometry, and pollutant sources all determine optimal placement.

Best Locations

Place the unit 3-5 feet from your bed, elevated on a nightstand or dresser. Avoid corners, behind furniture, or near windows where fresh pollutants enter.

Room Size Considerations

For rooms under 200 sq ft, a single unit near the bed works. Larger bedrooms may need two units or a higher-CADR model positioned centrally.

Common Mistakes

• Placing against a wall (blocks intake vents)
• Running on low speed overnight (insufficient filtration)
• Ignoring filter replacement schedules
• Using an undersized unit for the room
