If you\u2019re not sure <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livescience.com\/what-humidity-is-comfortable\">what humidity is comfortable<\/a>, Dr Deborah Lee, a medical doctor and representative for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.doctorfox.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.doctorfox.co.uk\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Dr Fox Online Pharmacy<\/a><span class=\"sr-only\"> (opens in new tab)<\/span> explains more to Live Science. \u201cIf the air is too humid, this can precipitate house dust mites and mold, triggering asthma symptoms\u201d she says. \u201cHumid air directly triggers the airways to constrict, resulting in allergens being trapped inside, and worsening asthma symptoms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Air purifiers can also aid those with respiratory conditions, by removing allergens from the air before they can be inhaled. \u201cExposure to a wide range of indoor allergens is known to trigger asthma,\u201d adds Lee. \u201cThese allergens include house dust mites, household pets, cockroaches, mold, and mice. One solution may be the use of air filtration mechanisms. These may be installed as an integral part of the home\u2019s heating or air conditioning system, or air filtration can be achieved using portable machines, such as a High-Efficiency Particulate Air Filter (HEPA).\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vanilla.futurecdn.net\/livescience\/media\/img\/missing-image.svg\" alt=\"Happy couple use air purifier\" class=\"lazy-image-van\" data-normal=\"https:\/\/vanilla.futurecdn.net\/livescience\/media\/img\/missing-image.svg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/HaskhVZRxWJQcEQckxBFXH-320-80.jpg 320w, https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/HaskhVZRxWJQcEQckxBFXH-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/HaskhVZRxWJQcEQckxBFXH-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/HaskhVZRxWJQcEQckxBFXH-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/HaskhVZRxWJQcEQckxBFXH-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/HaskhVZRxWJQcEQckxBFXH-1200-80.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HaskhVZRxWJQcEQckxBFXH.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/HaskhVZRxWJQcEQckxBFXH.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\">(Image credit: Getty)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-dehumidifier-vs-air-purifier-what-can-they-help-with\"><span>Dehumidifier vs air purifier: What can they help with?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The two main issues that both dehumidifiers and air purifiers can help with are allergies and asthma, which are often related.

Don\u2019t use an ionizing air purifier as this produces ozone which is known to worsen asthma symptoms. Reduce environmental triggers by hoovering regularly \u2013 twice a week or more with a hoover with a HEPA filter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If your house is particularly damp, you frequently have excess condensation on windows or cold surfaces, or you struggle with mold, then a dehumidifier might be the better option for you. However, to remain effective you must remember to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livescience.com\/how-to-clean-a-dehumidifier\">clean your dehumidifier<\/a>, as Lee explains. \u201cWithout cleaning, it can be a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses which it then releases into the air, and this can make asthma worse. Also, the chemicals needed to clean it are then released into the air and again can trigger symptoms,\u201d she says. \u201cA dehumidifier will reduce dampness and mold but cannot remove these completely.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"hawk-nest\" data-model-name=\"Dehumidifiers\" data-widget-title=\"Today&#039;s best dehumidifier deals\" data-widget-type=\"review\" data-render-type=\"editorial\">\n<div class=\"hawk-main-editorialized\">\n<div class=\"hawk-title-container\">Today&#8217;s best dehumidifier deals<\/div>\n<div class=\"hawk-grid-items-review\" data-stacked=\"0\">\n<div class=\"hawk-grid-item-container hawk-grid-item-review\" data-expandable=\"0\" data-stacked=\"0\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n<div class=\"hawk-grid-item-main-container hawk-grid-item-main-review\" data-product-type=\"1000\" data-button-type=\"\" data-stacked=\"0\" data-expanded=\"0\">\n<div class=\"hawk-grid-item-block-container hawk-grid-item-block-review\" data-name=\"image\" data-product-type=\"1000\" data-button-type=\"\" data-stacked=\"0\"><a data-google-interstitial=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/shop-links.co\/link\/?publisher_slug=future&amp;u1=livescience-us-2475312086886520300&amp;exclusive=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fbestbuy.7tiv.net%2Fc%2F376373%2F633495%2F10014%3Fprodsku%3D6257860%26u%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.bestbuy.com%252Fsite%252F-%252F6257860.p%253Fcmp%253DRMX&amp;article_name=Dehumidifier%20vs%20air%20purifier%3A%20What%E2%80%99s%20the%20difference%3F&amp;article_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.livescience.com%2Fdehumidifier-vs-air-purifier%2F%2Fdehumidifier-vs-air-purifier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\" class=\"hawk-affiliate-link-container\" data-product-key=\"131993-6257860\" data-url=\"https:\/\/shop-links.co\/link\/?publisher_slug=future&amp;u1=livescience-us-2475312086886520300&amp;exclusive=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fbestbuy.7tiv.net%2Fc%2F376373%2F633495%2F10014%3Fprodsku%3D6257860%26u%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.bestbuy.com%252Fsite%252F-%252F6257860.p%253Fcmp%253DRMX&amp;article_name=Dehumidifier%20vs%20air%20purifier%3A%20What%E2%80%99s%20the%20difference%3F&amp;article_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.livescience.com%2Fdehumidifier-vs-air-purifier%2F%2Fdehumidifier-vs-air-purifier\" data-model-id=\"788934\" data-match-id=\"172874010\" data-product-type=\"1000\" role=\"link\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/0842e61773dba15aee9a986fc3ff3c0ae34d0740-100-80.jpg\" alt=\"Vicks - 0.5 Gal.
