Anyone one here using a negative ion generator to help repel dust in your dark room??

I use my bathroom, and the old cleanroom trick of running a shower beforehand results in a dust free enough environment for me.

I filter the air conditioning duct twice when it goes into the darkroom and all air sources are also filtered.

I bought one from Kinetronics a while ago, and hooked it up to a small air compressor with a needle valve to regulate the pressure. A little pricey, but worth the money. It really helped! I use glass neg carriers, so 6 surfaces to dust. Now I do digital negs for ag printing, so no dust marks to spot on the final prints. It is also very useful when framing prints.

Hello,
Air purifiers that have ionizers, is a good idea.
But, not to expect a lot, even when using more than one in small room, if the room is not in the first place isolated with air-in air-out control.

Silver printing, or agriculture images?
