    I think Amazon is about the only place you can get them now, there are some good deals on the refill packs too.

    Most houses leak air like a sieve.Trying to get rid of airborne dust is just about impossible.It would be like trying to aircondition a house with the windows & doors open.The only chance you have is with a really well sealed passive home with a filtered air to air heat exchanger fresh air system.

    I'm trying out a Ioniser with a fan in the hope that it will collect the dust that goes on the system.

    Much like an Ioniser and air filter.

    So far this is not working, or if it is not very well.

    Going to try vacuuming the room more often, cleaning out the Ioniser again soon and see if that works. Not 100% hopeful !
