As summer begins to shine and patriotic holidays bring out the flags, fireworks, and backyard barbecues, it’s easy to focus on the visible elements of a beautiful home. We spruce up the yard, hang fresh décor, and prepare to welcome friends and family. But while you’re focused on appearances, don’t forget one of the most important (and often overlooked) aspects of your home, and that is the air you breathe.
The truth is, indoor air quality plays a critical role in your family’s comfort, health, and overall well-being. Between rising pollen counts, humidity swings, and increased time spent indoors with the AC running, your home’s air may be far from fresh. Fortunately, a few proactive steps—like changing filters, investing in purification systems, and cleaning your ducts—can make a world of difference. Here’s how to celebrate the season in comfort and style, starting with your indoor air.
