We use GermGuardian purifiers, which include a UV C light and activated charcoal screen. They really help improve the air quality and smell, especially in our son’s room.

DIY air purifiers using computer fans and HVAC filters are surprisingly effective and quiet.

I used this setup during a renovation project. It was very effective at keeping the dust down and is cheap to maintain.
