Coway Airmega 250 is a powerful HEPA air purifier manufactured by the Korean company Coway which has produced many high-quality air cleaners before, including the famous Coway Mighty. This air purifier utilizes the latest design developments to clean the air at maximum efficiency, utilizing a Max2 true HEPA filter to catch particles as small as 0.3 micron, including bacteria, allergens, and dust. In addition to the HEPA filter, the unit also features a pre-filter and Activated Carbon filter to remove large particles and odors respectively.
I recommend checking my review here, where I go into more details about this excellent Coway air cleaning system.
Bissell Air320 is one of the most popular and powerful Bissell air purifiers, as it can remove harmful contaminants and dust from spaces up to 1582 square feet. Same as the Airmega 250, it utilizes 3-stage air filtration with a pre-filter, medical-grade HEPA and Activated Carbon filters without releasing any ozone.
The Bissell Air320 is a sturdy, energy certified air cleaner that was tested by AHAM to remove dust, pollen and smoke. Its powerful fan can pull air from every side of your crawl space. Replacement filters are cheaper compared to the Coway Airmega, but they have to be replaced twice a year.
Afloia Q10 is an air cleaner for smaller houses that lack auto mode. However, it comes with a built-in dehumidifier, so you won’t have to spend extra if you need one. The filtration system includes a pre-filter, HEPA and Carbon filters and it can be used with or without dehumidifying function.
If your crawl space exceeds 270 square feet, you can simply get yet another Afloia Q10 air purifier, to cover the whole area.
