I admit I do not have much knowledge on this front, so I would like to ask knowledge here from others for best options to reduce. While I know there is no perfect solution truly, what could be a good resource for reducing?

    I remember bigclive trying to make a simple air filter with toilet paper. I wonder if you could scale that up to something like a corsi-rosenthal box?

    Then also what kind of filtration you actually get from toilet paper. Should make a good dust filter at least, but not sure about smaller particles.

      I don’t think that would work well. I did a crude thing with a single furnace filter instead of 4 of them and that worked ok though.

        May have to try and dig out his video. It absolutely worked, but may have been more of a dust filter.

          It might be useful as a desperate improvisation but otherwise get a real filter. You want to filter out very fine particles. AQI is measured at 2.5 micron but you want sub micron filtering if you can get it.
