Many of us have a lot in common right now, we’re still spending quite a bit of time at home! And as the weather starts to cool off, we’ll be spending even more time there. With the busyness in life and the change in season, it is easy to forget about our home’s indoor air quality. Unfortunately, our indoor air quality is taking on quite a bit of damage from the extra traffic, and that can affect our health too! Home comfort starts with clean air! So what can we do as homeowners to ensure the air we are breathing at home is healthy, clean air? Keep reading to learn more!
Purify With Plants
Plants are an inexpensive and organic way to rid your home’s air of contaminants. Not only do they take in Carbon Dioxide, but they can increase oxygen levels in your home and even remove other toxins lingering in the air! Be mindful if you have pets! Some feline friends don’t mix well with certain plants, so do your research before deciding which ones are right for your home.

Humidify the Air
As we transition into a dryer, cooler season, humidity can play a big role in maintaining indoor air quality. Besides preventing static electric build-up in carpets and clothes, it can help prevent dryness of the skin, throat, and hair, that accompany the cool weather and cause irritation. During winter, the air can get dry. A whole-house humidifier can help to add moisture to the air so that you can feel more comfortable indoors.
Duct Cleaning
Your home’s air ducts collect and trap dust, allergens, and other contaminants in the air. Although you may change your air filters regularly, those contaminants will still be in the air ducts. If you find that your air filters are getting dirty rather quickly, then you should consider scheduling an air duct cleaning appointment! Check out these Before and After photos we’ve done in the past! Now that’s dirty!
