Are you just using the fiberglass 99 cent filters? It looks like it. I don't think that is going to do a whole lot to keep you healthier. Those don't trap very small particles.(well not a high percentage of them) For my house I spend about $15X2 every two-3 months for the good pleated high efficiency filters. They work way better. As a matter of fact the grates that cover them both are usually covered in dust because they trap so much more than the cheap fiberglass ones. It probably reduces the airflow a little but so what. No idea how old the air handler is but Im guessing the size of the filters were not calculated using high efficiency ones.
As far as sawdust goes Its the dust you can't see that im sure is gonna hurt you and it will probably pass right through those. Especially without a lot of airflow since those rely mostly on static electricity to catch particles.
I also read in several places that the ion generators can be bad for you and do little to nothing to clean the air any better.
