Air cleaner placement without blocked airflow
Manufacturer clearances and the real airflow path matter more than visual symmetry.
Key points
Keep inlets and outlets clear and account for closed doors and room geometry.
How to use this in practice
Measure the room and record the operating conditions first. Compare values at the same speed and under similar conditions. A marketed room area is not universal; volume and target airflow are more transparent.
Limitations
Outdoor conditions, building leakage, open doors, ongoing sources and furniture layout can materially change performance.
