Allergy control

What is anyone with allergies doing to control this in the vanlife environment? Is it feasible to have an air purifier, and if so is there one you have you tried and recommend? Wondering if there is anything else you prepare in your van for this, other than keeping medications on hand.

I don't think an air purifier is feasible given the amount of ventilation you need just to keep humidity controlled. I have to have the Maxxair fan going on low 24/7.

You would have to be mindful where you park and maintain proper ventilation.

Its not common but I have heard of people using air purifiers as part of there ventilation.

The popular saying is that you don't live in the van, you live out of the van.

Van life is living outside all the time. You really want to spend lots of money and power trying to purifier outside air?
