Hello I have a large Air purifier. I can tell that the air is much cleaner when I use it. I'm not sure about an humidifier. I feel like too much moisture could cause infection or mold which could make your symptoms much worse. Talk to your doctor before buying one

It actually helps running a humifier in the winter.
If you are also running a HEPA air filter, make sure that they are at least 3 feet apart.
You do not want the HEPA filture from collecting too much moisture increasing the chance of mold growth.
Just researched this situation.
Bottom line, those suffering from COPD show be running a HEPA air cleaner along with a humidifier, keeping the the humidity at 30-50 percent.
