I've gotten the Winix ones from Costco and they work great. I really notice a difference now that it's getting cold and my windows are shut most of the time.

The problem with shutting windows is CO2 quickly gets up to unhealthy levels. Takes about 2 hours in my office.

A good quality CO2 monitor (e.g Aranet) is a worthwhile investment.

That probably explains the weird sensations in my chest, especially when turning on the stove to cook something.

What levels are you seeing?

1100-1200. I believe in the mining industry anything over 800 inside a truck cab is considered unsafe. Fresh air is 470ish. I try to keep my room around 600 but not always possible.
