Without effective dust collection at your tools, even the best air filtration system will not maintain healthy air quality.

The Shop Hacks Ultimate DIY Air Filtration System required only 15 minutes to clear the air after the initial cuts, with no more cuts being made. Without dust collection or air filtration, the dust concentration remained in the unhealthy range for over 5 hours even after just one set of cuts were made.

A $500 Powermatic PM1200 air cleaner took 41 minutes to bring the air quality back into the 'good' range.
