can a humidifer help get dust out the air and out of my carpet?
I can’t afford a air purifier, but i do have a humidifier will that help get some dust out of my carpet and out the air?
if u have a humidifier that has a evap pad that the h20 runs over then it will remove some dust by pulling air over the pad thus trapping the dust in the h20,u will see this in the h20 thats left when u clean it,,i would recommend a hepa portable air filter

The humidifier will make the dust moist, cause it to fall to the carpet faster, and make it more messy. A humidifier has nothing to do with removal of dust at all.

Try a whole house furnace filter either by Honeywell or Permatron. They reduce dust by 85% and make your environment cleaner. The Permatron one is usually under $65.00 and has a life time warranty. In my opinion it is better than the electronic air cleaners.

no it will wet the dust and make it stick to the carpet and make it fall out of the air.
