Good Housekeeping
We’re all hyper aware of the importance of the quality of indoor air. Not only because of the off-gassing or toxic products used in our homes, but also so that we keep viruses and illnesses away. A routine we love to do each morning is to open up the windows and let a fresh breeze in.
With our firm’s focus on Green Living, we get a lot of requests to help create not just beautiful, but healthy homes. One of our more popular posts on 13 Terrifying Toxins to Remove From Your Home is a must read.
Another must have to maximize indoor air is to have an air purifier in the home.
The bedroom is a great place to have an air purifier because this is where you rest, regenerate and restore every cell in your body for about 8 hours a day. And you’ll want to give your cells the best chance to recuperate.
ARE THERE ANY AIR PURIFIERS THAT ACTUALLY WORK?
Trust us when we say, don’t waste your time or money buying inexpensive filters that won’t actually do a great job purifying the air.
Remember the phrase You Get What You Pay For. Or Pay Once, Cry Once. Just bite the bullet and buy the best out there. This is one area where buying new (or refurbished) and the best is always worth it.
