Clean indoor air quality plays a big role in maintaining children’s health, especially since they’re more sensitive to air pollution. It protects them from developing respiratory diseases and viruses, such as COVID-19, asthma, bronchitis, and hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). Aside from that, it also benefits their cognition, productivity, and mood, making them less sweaty and irritated when playing or resting. 

That’s why you need to purify the air that circulates through your home on a regular basis, not only by cleaning to remove dust and dirt. Finding effective ways to keep indoor air clean can be challenging, and doing it may add to a long list of housework, but everything will be stress-free with these air purifying tips. 

Add Air-Purifying Plants

One natural way to maintain air quality at home is by adding air-purifying plants that can help absorb pollutants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which are harmful to one’s health. Just make sure to choose plants that are safe for children, like succulents. You can place them in various rooms or corners of your house.

Plants also increase oxygen levels through photosynthesis, resulting in better respiratory health for the entire family. It can even improve mental health as they emit positivity and create a more relaxed environment. This air-purifying technique will generally make your home more pleasant, giving you a sense of nature indoors that radiates good ambiance and clean air. 

Keep Rooms Well-Ventilated

Maintaining good ventilation requires a little bit of effort. You can start practicing it by simply opening your doors and windows to allow fresh air to enter and circulate through your home. Another thing you can do is install exhaust fans to remove stale air from your rooms. For natural ventilation, vents or louvers are great options.

Keeping your home clean to remove dust and dirt that can cause allergies to your children and clog up vents help a lot, too. If you prefer a more vibrant atmosphere in your room while cleaning the air, it is better to use diffusers as they don’t contain harmful chemicals and artificial fragrances in order to create a relaxing aroma and minimize allergens.

Clean Air Conditioners Regularly

Air conditioners are among the causes of poor indoor air quality that some people tend to overlook. The filters and coils can easily get clogged with dust, dirt, and other contaminants that reduce the ability of air conditioners to filter air. This can emit contaminated air, causing health problems like difficulty in breathing. 

Cleaning the air conditioners in your home will have a significant impact on improving and maintaining air quality. One method is to engage a steam cleaning service that use of high pressure steam to clean the coil, giving you clean and healthy air to breathe in your home! Not only that, steam cleaning is also the better option over the conventional method of Chemical Flushing.

They will effectively serve their purpose of eliminating pollutants, such as dust particles, pollen, and mold. It will also enhance energy efficiency, allowing you to save on electricity bills. You won’t have to spend money on repairs, either, as cleaning can prolong their lifespan.
