Here’s some easy to implement and effective tips for improving air quality as prepared by the professional Denver air duct cleaning and Denver ductwork cleaning team here at Air Improement Denver.
Removing Bed and Pillow Dust Mites
Dust mites, and the waste they deposit, decrease air quality inside the home. These microscopic insects eat human skin flakes, and thrive in moist and warm environments, like inside bedding and pillows. Remove sheets from your bed, vacuum the bed and mattress, and allow it to air dry in order to reduce potentially irritating dust mite or dust mite waste particles. Consider using zip on dust mite covers on your bed for an extra layer of protection.
Eliminating Carpets and Rugs
Try to reduce the amount of carpets and rugs in your home, as they easily become a living place for dust and dust mites. Removing your carpets drastically improves home air quality, even while removing the comfort of the soft underfoot decor.
Vacuum Regularly
Regularly vacuum your floors, couches, and other home surfaces to reduce the level of dust and floating particulate matter that can irritate your respiratory system. Stay aware that cleaning can easily stir dust into the air, which is why we recommend wearing a secure mask while you do so.
Opting for Scent-Free Cleaning Products
Avoid heavily scented cleaning products, as they can release pollutants and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air. As much as possible, use gentle and/or unscented cleaning solutions in order to prove home air quality,
