As the summer heat rises, many of us shut our windows and rely heavily on air conditioning to stay cool. While this helps beat the heat, it can also cause indoor air to become stale and polluted. Dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can all become trapped inside.
This contributes to allergies, headaches, fatigue, and even respiratory issues. The good news? You don’t need expensive equipment to make your air healthier. There are plenty of budget-friendly strategies that can improve your home’s air quality this summer.
