The most important and interactive thing that matters most for all of us is the air we breathe in. Due to the industrial revolutions around the world, air quality is one of the most affected factors among all of them. United Nations along with other leading nations of the world is taking all the necessary steps to take measures against the spread of air pollution.

According to the stats from the U.S Environmental protection agency, air pollution is causing serious health issues like allergy, asthma, and several other issues to over 25 million people around the world every year including 7 million children. These facts and figures show how important it is to keep your home air clean and healthy.

Here we are going to discuss a few quick steps you can take to make your home air quality clean and improved for a healthy lifestyle.

1. KEEP IT CLEAN

Half of the job to improve home air quality is done by keeping it clean. Internal hygiene plays an important part in maintaining a healthy atmosphere inside the home. If you have pets at home, it becomes even more important to have a daily check on covers on sofas, pillows, bed sheets, and other places which could bring in allergic germs and hence cause serious skin issues.

2. BUY SOME GOOD QUALITY AIR FILTERS

Air filters greatly help in keeping clean from the dust particles that come from the outside air. Electrostatic filters are used worldwide to ensure that dust and other pollutants are trapped and don’t circulate in your home.

3. DON’T MISS OUT ON DUST

Dusting on daily basis can potentially decrease the chances of your indoor air quality to affect. Cleaning of furniture, carpets, walls, and curtains can greatly reduce air pollution and give a fresh and healthy feel to you and your loved ones.

4. USE AIR FRESHENERS AND PURIFIERS

If you’re sensitive to indoor allergens and can’t control the source of the problem, for example, you’re unwilling to give up your family pet; it may help to use an air purifier. Placed in the most commonly used areas of the house, these devices, in particular ionic purifiers, can help capture some of the irritants that may trigger your symptoms. You’re probably not going to be able to remove these allergens completely, but you can cut down on them, which may help the problem.

5. AVOID SMOKING

Smoking is not only dangerous as far as the health issues with you are concerned, but it can severely affect the environment around you. If you’re a committed and honest head of your family, you should be more responsible and careful while smoking cigarettes or cigars inside your home and especially where your children and loved ones spend their quality time.

6. ALWAYS HAVE A GOOD VENTILATION

Having a balanced ventilation system can help decrease air pollution by 50%. Because the dust particles divert they do not recalculate in the air inside the home. Keep observing and optimizing the home ventilation according to the needs. This not only diverts air pollutants but also helps fresh air crossing, hence maintaining the room temperature at the best possible level.
