Quick Indoor Air Quality Tips

The quality of the air you breathe indoors can have a significant effect on your health, comfort, and overall quality of life. Healthy indoor air is especially important if you or anyone in your family suffers from asthma, allergies, or other respiratory problems. To create a healthy and comfortable living environment for you and your family, here are some quick tips to improve the air quality inside your home:

• Store paint, cleaning chemicals, and other toxic substances outside
• Limit the use of aerosol sprays indoors (hair spray, air fresheners, etc.)
• Weather permitting, open doors and windows to circulate fresh air through your home
• Make sure oil and gas burning appliances (stove, furnace, etc.) are well ventilated
• Have your carpets professionally cleaned at least once per year
