Keep Your Air Fresh And Clean This Summer

You’ll often hear people talking about levels of pollution outside – but what about fresh and clean air within the confines of your home?

If you’re not careful, it’s possible for harmful toxins to linger in the air in your home, and who wants to be breathing in anything potentially unsafe?

Here are some tips for cleaning up the air in your home to keep it fresh and clean.

A breath of fresh air

When possible, use eco friendly products while cleaning. That might mean switching to a plant-based bench or bathroom spray and you’ll notice straight away from the smell they are nowhere near as harsh on your body as cleaners full of toxins.

It’s also important to make sure you are cleaning regularly. Mould, dust and mites can build up making your air less than squeaky clean, so be sure to dust, wipe and scrub regularly.

If you do ever need to use a cleaner such as bleach, make sure the area is well-ventilated, that you are wearing gloves and possibly even a mask. Leave doors and windows open to make sure the room airs out as quickly as possible.

Whether you’re cleaning or not, it’s important to make sure your home is adequately ventilated. That means leaving windows and doors open when you’re home to make sure there is good air flow.

Ceiling fans can also help to circulate air, as can air conditioning systems, but there’s nothing quite like an outdoor breeze to clean out your home.

Fill your home with flowers and plants. Sweet scented florae remove the need for potentially harmful synthetic air fresheners, and plants have been proven to absorb air pollutants and convert them into healthy air, according to a study by NASA. Finally, there’s the aesthetic benefits these plants can provide to your home at the same time.
