About AirPick

An independent, spec-based guide to home air purifiers and purifier combos.

AirPick is published by Informative Buy, a small independent business run by Gerardo Galicia in Venice, California. We built it because air-purifier boxes lead with 'covers up to 2,000 sq ft' claims built on one air change an hour, while the figures that decide how clean a room gets (smoke CADR, sleep-mode noise, carbon life) are buried in spec tabs, or not published at all. Here, every product is compared on the specs its manufacturer publishes, scored with a formula printed on the page, and linked back to its sources.

Today the site covers 4 categories, 66 products and 42 head-to-head comparisons, from 34 CFM desk purifiers to 568 CFM open-plan machines, HEPA + carbon units for wildfire smoke, and purifiers that also heat, cool or humidify.

How we research

How we make money

AirPick participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. When you buy through a "Check price" button, Amazon may pay us a commission at no extra cost to you. Commissions never change the order of a ranking, and no brand can pay for placement. Details are in our affiliate disclosure.
