Zero-ozone air purifiers for bedrooms

Ranking criteria: reported ozone emissions of exactly 0 ppb; technology listed as fan and filter only (no ion generator or PlasmaWave); smoke CADR 100–249 cfm, which by AHAM's 2/3 rule suits rooms of roughly 150–370 sq ft; ranked by lowest annual energy use. Data: ENERGY STAR certification records (retrieved 2026-10-17); electricity estimates use EIA rates (July 2026 (preliminary)). These rankings are calculated from published data only. They are not hands-on tests, and noise, filter price and build quality are not considered (no such data in ENERGY STAR records).
