Improving Indoor Air Quality

The air inside your home can have an impact on your health and well-being. Bad indoor air can cause various issues from respiratory problem to allergy symptoms. Here are four suggestions of things you can do to help make the air quality better in your home.

1- CHANGE YOUR AIR FILTERS

A good and easy way to improve the indoor air quality in your home is changing your air filter. The air filter in your furnace and air-conditioner system are designed to filter dirt, dust and other kinds of allergens from your heating and cooling system. Forgetting to change your filters regularly (about every 2-3 months) could be adding to the indoor air quality issues in your home.

2- KEEP DIRT OUT

People can track all sorts of dirt, chemicals, and allergens inside with their shoes. You can reduce the amount of dirt, pesticides, and other pollutants from getting into your home by putting a large mat at each door. Even if someone doesn’t wipe their shoes on that mat, most pollutants will be left on the mat -- not the floors in your home. And for even further avoidance, remove your shoes and ask everyone else to take off their shoes when coming in the house.

3- VACUUM REGULARLY

Since flooring can be a hot spot for allergens and dust, vacuuming on a regular basis is a great way in keeping those particles out of the air and improve your air quality at home. There are even vacuums that have HEPA filters which can get even more of the allergens and dust out.
