Many of today's homeowners worry about the quality of the air in their homes, since we spend so much time indoors (especially around this time of the year). What follows are some ways to better the air quality inside your home:
- Have your furnace inspected and cleaned annually to ensure that no unhealthy gases end up leaking out. It is important to make sure that there is no gas leaking out!
- Have any fuel burning appliances inspected by a professional each year to prevent the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning. Also if you have a gas range, you must have a hood fan that exhausts the outdoor air. Turning on that fan will remove gas fumes
- A simple way to prevent dust accumulation is to de-clutter your home. Keep your household items organized and store toys, books, etc. in containers and place them in closets. Also, don't forget how important it is to vacuum on a regular basis
- Have your duct work inspected if it runs through an uninsulated attic. Why? Because humid air condenses and can cause mold and rust. Consider having your attic insulated.
