Our house usually has a lot of dust and hair going around because we have dogs and cats. I was wondering, would having an ionic air cleaner too close to computers, manage to cause any problems? I wasn't sure since I don't know if maybe the electric cleaning of the air might do something or have a sort of electric field.

I can try to explain it better if needed. But my main concern would be having one of those air cleaners too close to computers manage to cause any problems?

Well, I didn't really get one just for the computer... We have quite a few all around the house, it was just I was thinking I should put one in our computer room to try and help keep the computers all cleaned. I just get paranoid since I am still working on my 3000$ computer and building it for the first time, and just want to make sure I don't do something stupid and mess it all up.

No a humidifier becuse it takes the static electricity out of the air...its not like they turn the air to mist or anything...

what? static electricity is not "in the air" it comes from friction

Bump, just hoping for some more confirmation from others.
