• a tower chassis, with a base of the tower chassis including a small footprint;
• one or more airflow inlet openings in the tower chassis;
• one or more airflow outlet openings in the tower chassis and substantially opposite to the one or more airflow inlet openings;
• an ionizer element positioned within the tower;
• and
• a fan unit located within the tower ionizer air cleaner and affixed to the tower chassis, with the fan unit configured to provide a substantially horizontal airflow between the one or more airflow inlet openings and the one or more airflow outlet openings and through the ionizer element.
