How To Improve Your Indoor Air Quality?
Does the air in your house feel stale? To deal with poor indoor air quality, you need to look into source control, improved ventilation and air cleaners. Here are some tips to improve your indoor air quality:
- Get an indoor air quality test
- choose materials that off gas a small amount (or no) VOCs
- regularly change the filters in your HVAC system.
- Invest in an air exchanger, such as an ERV or an HRV to bring in fresh air
- Invest in an air purification system
- Use your kitchen and bathroom fans
I had 5 of these Panasonic air purifiers installed in my home because I wanted to have the peace of mind I’m breathing fresh, clean air.
