House cleaning work never seems to end, especially because you want a healthy home. Nevertheless, your home has dust with contaminants and allergens that regular cleaning or maid services do not get. You can never completely eliminate those pollutants, but you can certainly help reduce them to a healthier level.
As you grace upon the beautiful ray of sunlight entering your home, you notice a stream of dust dancing across the room. That dust is always present and can carry numerous contaminants and allergens that lead to sickness or allergic reactions. At times when there is no ventilation like having closed windows, the air pollutants have nowhere to go.
A great way to fight those allergens and pollutants is to use air purifiers. They take the air in and send it right back out without many of the particles and inhibitors. Each model has different features, like oscillation, etc. No matter which model you end up getting, it will help a little. However, more expensive purifiers typically perform with better results. It is advisable to get several and place them in the most commonly used rooms.
An additional method is to install window fans and have other windows open. This allows the pollutants to escape the home and clean the air. If you decide to try it, be sure to have other windows open so fresh air can enter when the polluted air escapes. You will be required to periodically clean the screens, but this is minor because of the positive results you receive from doing this method.
Vacuum cleaners can help reduce those air pollutants too, if a good one. Cheaper vacuums tend to just blow the contaminants around while still picking up dirt and debris. Some advertise HEPA filtration but fail to send all the air into the filter. Some let the air escape through gaps, openings, cracks, or even unsealed containers. A good vacuum may not get everything, but it will surely contribute to a healthier home environment.
Air pollutants will always exist in every home. Nevertheless, you can employ certain methods to help take control and reduce those annoying allergens.
