Air purifier in drying room, good or bad?

I have two thoughts about using an air purifier in the drying room. Yes, it is great for removing mold and other pathogens from the air. The UV setting kills germs? So, using an air purifier seems like a great idea. However, it removes odors. Do we want to keep odors or eliminate them. Will an air purifier destroy terpenes? As long as the room temperature is kept cool would an air purifier still destroy terpenes? It's a toss-up. I already own one so cost is not the issue. Should I use it or not? I definitely will not use the scent pads.

what is an air purifier but a filter to remove dust, spores etc. how can it damage your plants? uv setting or some charged filters inside may produce very small amounts of ozone but i use an air purifier and i havent noticed reduced smell or anything.

Seems pointless imo, they can grow in outside air, they dont have allergies
I was speaking about "In the drying room". Will an air purifier destroy terpenes? The air purifier claims to eliminate mold spores which is a good thing. It provides air circulation at the very least. It's the removing of odors that has me concerned. I'm probably over thinking it like always.

If its purifing air it dont do anything to your buds. Just captures evaporated terpenes and rest of shit. If the uv is working on drawn air, like dont shine outside it also wont have any effect. Certainly can keep your drying buds better protected from mold spores etc
 
It would not have any effect. As for odor, I am not sure about it, but I think not using - it is a fine choice.

Thanks
