The necessity to enhance the indoor air quality is a key to a healthy home and well-being. Begin by managing the sources of pollution- do not smoke inside, use chemical cleaners sparingly, and repair leaks and mold will not develop as fast. Improve ventilation by opening windows when outdoor air is clean and install exhaust fans in kitchens and bathrooms to get rid of moisture and pollutants. HVAC filters should be changed regularly and air ducts cleaned to avoid accumulation of dust. Air purifiers that have HEPA filters can be considered to trap allergens and pollutants. It can also be purified naturally by adding indoor plants such as spider plants to help purify the air. All these measures combined make the living environment healthier and fresher.
