Stores that sell HEPA Air Purifiers?

I’m looking for a air purifier that uses a HEPA filter, NOT an ionizer. I live in Perth, W.A. and can’t seem to find them anywhere. I’m talking about ones by brands such as Hamilton Beach. They don’t sell them at Big W, Target or Retravision. I looked on a few online stores that ship to Australia but they only sell a few cheap Ionizers

Help anyone?

ALLERGISTS: Ionic Breeze vs. Hepa Filter :please read question?

All of my family suffers with allergies, I have heard a lot of good things about the Ionic Breese. Recently someone told me that buying that is a waste of money and the Hepa Filter air purifier is better but they did not say why- before I purchase one, I would like some opinions, which is better Ionic Breeze or a Hepa Filter purifier and WHY?? Price is of moderate importance- I want something that will really help with our allergies and is not just a fad. Thank you for serious aswers- I don’t care how long the answer is as long as it is informative and honest.

How long can asbestos stay in the air?

We bought a house a few months ago and had to pull the floor tiles. They were 9 inch tiles. Later i found out 9 inch tiles can contain asbestos. The place was built in the 50s so it is likely. We pulled the tiles 3 months ago. I didnt let my kids enter the house during this time or for some time after. When the tiles were replaced i wiped everything down ( ceiling to floor) removed the blinds from the windows and bought a HEPA filter air purifier.
I ran the HEPA filter in there and all the other rooms for a few months before letting the kids go back in the house. It has been 3 months since the tiles were removed, replaced and we have used the HEPA the whole time. Is there still any risk? We had to move in since we couldnt afford to pay rent and the house payment at the same time.
How long can it stay in the air and can it still be there 3 months after the fact and after using a HEPA air purifier? Are my kids at risk? Im still very nervous about this. Any info would be helpful. Thanks
I forgot to mention that a few of the tiles broke while being removed.

Which of these air purifiers are good for me?

I’m in the market for an air purifier and I’m not sure which kind I should get. I’ve taken a look at some, and I’m not sure which would fit my needs. I first took a look at some HEPA filters, since I know they filter 99.99% of air particulates. But I also knew that they’re usually loud, you have to change the 0 filter every other month and they take up a lot of energy. I saw a Kenmore Envirosense filter and though it looked nice, but still; the hassle with expensive filters and energy. Before I go on, I should say the men in my family (My dad, brother and me) all have asthma, so we need something that would help with that. We also took a look at some models over at Brookstone. We found a Pure-Ion Advanced Air Purifier. The thing was ugly, but it worked, saying you would have 80% cleaner air in about 8 minutes. This isn’t a HEPA filter, but it had a fan. They say this one helps with asthma, but I’m not sure. Another one from Brookstone was the Blueair HEPA filter, one that was more
impressive than the Pure-Ion. This one came in a tabletop form, but still, the filters and the whopping price tag of 0.
Anyways, after that, we went to the Oreck store because we heard about some kinda amazing deal on TV, letting us try an Oreck Air purifier, vacuum, and a refrigerator purifier. one of Oreck’s points was "You can’t clean the air if you can’t move it", which made perfect sense to me, but there was one trick up my sleeve that made me think otherwise. Anyways, the Oreck one was impressive, requireing no filters and taking up much less noise and space and eating less eletricity than HEPA filters. However, when compared other filters like this one, it ranked the lowest, but I’ve never tried it, so I really wouldn’t know. After that, came our last stop which would be the trick up my sleeve. We went into The Sharper Image immediately seeing their crown acheivement, the Ionic Breeze Quadra, the purifier I had heard about long before the other filters, so I had somewhat of a bias towards it. Like many other purifiers, these use ions and electrons and stuff like that to clean the air
And it game in multiple models, the Tabletop version, the MIDI, the Quadra, the GP, and the Hybrid GP, which is some huge powerful air purifier. The GP caught my eye because It offered deep cleaning without an over-the-top price tag. These however, don’t use fans. So I had no clue how it was cleaning all the air. An explanation from you guys would be helpful. If you guys have owned or used these fiulters, please tell me and how you liked them. Especially if it help with your asthma.

Did i do a good enough job? How long can it stay in the air?

Is it better to install a HEPA filter in the furnace or purchase HEPA air purifiers for each room?

I am trying to fight against allergens in my house, as my boyfriend is allergic to my cat.

I was considering buying a HEPA air purifier for the bedroom and a larger one for the kitchen/dining room/ living room area of my house. I’m also planning on replacing the furnace soon and could have a HEPA filter installed on the furnace then as well.

Would one of these be better than the other in term of cutting down allergens in the air? Financially, the individual units seem cheaper, but I feel like the furnace filter might be more effective as it would help the whole house.
Good individual air purifiers cost anywhere from 0-0 and I would have to purchase multiple. Getting a top-of the line furnace would cost even more. "Doing both" isn’t really an option.

Is it a good idea to run an air filter and a humidifier at the same time in one room?

Not sure if the extra humidity will affect the air purifier.It is a hepa filter type of purifier. Trying to keep the allergens out and also humidify the air because it is really dry right now and i wake up with a really dry throat the past few days.
I’m using distilled water for the humidifier.
