Everyone worries about outdoor air pollution all around the world, from areas with extreme traffic and vehicle emissions, to places with refineries and other contaminants. However, not quite as many people remember to think about the indoor air quality of their own homes. Today we will go over a few things that can compromise the quality of your home’s air, as well as provide you with some options that can help improve it. 

Change Your Air Filters

Changing your air filters promptly is one of the best ways to keep the air in your home clean. Dirty air filters don’t function properly, and leave your air quality, and your HVAC system at risk.

Install an Air Purifier

An air purifier is a great addition to any home. You have plenty of different kinds to choose from, including ones that are built right into your HVAC system, or ones that stand alone and service one room at a time. These systems are perfect for minimizing contaminated air in your home, by trapping the contaminants within.

Use Natural Cleaners

Using just a few natural cleaners instead of traditional chemical cleaners can significantly reduce the amount of contaminants in your home’s air. If you do continue to use cleaners like bleach, be sure to open the windows while doing so.

Open The Windows

Opening the windows allows fumes from cleaning products, or smoke from cooking mishaps to exit the home before they have a chance to cling to your air filters, furniture, curtains, or anything else. Additionally, fresh air circulating through the home helps keep the air from becoming stale or over-circulated.
