With a cat, birds, kids, and a wood burning fireplace, I seem to have an awful lot of dirt and dust in the house. I can write on the piano only a day or two after using wood cleaner. When I clean the walls, oh yuck. So, I got to thinking I should buy an air cleaning machine. I see those all the time on TV, and clean air sounds like a good idea.

is a familiar name, so Enviracaire 50200 Air Purifier. The biggest selling point besides the name brand was the filter that could be vacuumed rather than replaced constantly. With the filters for running $75 and up, that was a key consideration. If you’re looking at older or lower priced models, be sure and check about the filters. They will eat you up.

The Enviracaire pulls air in from 360 degrees, cleans it, and then pushes it back out. In any case, that’s the idea. But, it’s only designed for a 16 to 19 foot room which is not a particularly large room. Don’t expect this to keep the whole house clean. It would, in most homes, probably be a bedroom air cleaner.

My house is not particularly big. It a ranch with the main part of the house (other than bedrooms) being the kitchen and an L shaped living room. So, I put the air machine in the kitchen which gets a lot of traffic and lot of cooking with our family being southern. I didn’t measure the kitchen, but it would be around the size suggested.

Finding a home for the machine was a bit of a trick. It really is rather large as far as small appliances go. Covered with fabric, it would make a darn fine foot stool in front of the rocker. In any case, I hid it in the corner kind of behind the kitchen table. It’s still hard to miss it, but it’s not sitting in the middle of the room where we’d trip over it. Frankly it’s not very attractive, but I figured that was the price of clean air.

Once this is plugged in, all you do is pick a speed. This one has three speeds. I can hear them all running, and the highest is rather annoying to start with. After a while, you kind of forget to hear it running. But, I would say visitors would notice.

The other “controls” are indicators for needing to clean the filter. According to the company, you’d expect to vacuum the filter about twice per year. They must have tested on a cleaner house. Mine wants it more like every three months. Ignoring this cleaning results in an awful lot of dust then sitting on/sticking to the air cleaner. So, expect to vacuum, and expect that to be a rather distasteful job. Dirty filters are just rather gross.

As far as the air, I’m really at a loss to say. I wanted to think the air was cleaner. The power bill went up with this running around the clock ($10 to $20 per month I think—but other variables come into play—so it’s hard to say for sure), and I hoped it was making a difference. But, frankly I couldn’t tell. Perhaps I’d need more of these in other rooms to really know. And, at $150 a pop, I just wasn’t up for a test like that. I just wanted our high traffic kitchen air cleaner. Judging from the icky dust on the ceiling fan (my ultimate test), I’d say it didn’t do much.

In the end, I decided to chalk this one up. Since I couldn’t tell any real difference, didn’t like cleaning the nasty filter, and with the power bill higher, it didn’t seem like a good idea to keep on keeping on. I was also glad to get the corner back in my kitchen, since that’s a good place to put stuff.

If any of us had big allergy problems, I might consider this in one of the bedrooms. The thing there is that none of us spend much time in our bedrooms. We hang out in the main part of the house and all do our own things but kind of shoulder to shoulder. So, I didn’t see running the machine in any of the rooms not used much.

I guess I will just use Pine Sol and elbow grease and hope the air is cleaner with more house cleaning. I’ve also found that the air at least smells fresher with some Febreze spray now and then on the carpet and furniture.

I was excited to get the Enviracaire 50200 Air Purifier and thought it would be wonderful. I can’t really say it didn’t do anything, but I can’t tell that it did. So, I would not tell others to rush out and buy one.
