We did that for a number of years and they do work OK. Two or three years ago, we finally broke down and bought standalone air purifiers when we had a newborn. I know they're expensive, but if you get them off season they're much cheaper. Might consider it if you're going to be in Seattle for the long haul, unfortunately... They work well, are pretty energy efficient, and are much quieter than the box fans.
Ikea sells some really neat air purifiers, even one that can be used as a small table!
Neat, I'll check that out
Didn't think about noise
