1) To make sure fresh air is circulating in your house, set your AC’s air circulation setting to 50 per cent. This way it will take at least 50 per cent of air from outside to flush the room inside.
2) A very easy way to get good indoor air quality is to open your window half an hour in the morning and half an hour in the evening when the weather permits. This will automatically flush the pollutants and bring fresh air inside. It will dilute the concentration of pollutants inside the house.
3) Conduct regular maintenance for your AC. Cleaning the AC ducts will help you breathe in clean air.
4) Put plants inside the house. Plants emit oxygen.
5) Avoid using humidifiers and atomisers. Avoid drying clothes inside the house, especially during winter. Doing so will keep moisture content inside the house high and support mould growth.
6) Make sure your cleaning agents are tightly closed and stored in a room that has proper ventilation.
7) Choose furniture that does not emit formaldehyde or VOCs.
