Abstract: There exists limited testing of air cleaners under indoor wildfire smoke conditions. This study characterized 13 air cleaners, determining size-resolved particulate matter (PM), black and brown carbon, and volatile organic compound (VOC) clean air delivery rates (CADRs). Two do-it-yourself (DIY) configurations composed of MERV 13 filters affixed to a box fan proved effective at removing particles in the 1−2.5 μm diameter range with average CADRs of 1467 and 842 m 3 /h, respectively. In contrast with units with… Show more
