When the sun hits an area of your home with direct sunlight, what do you see? Sure, household dust is normal, but what else in in there? That dust is invisible most of the time, but you have to remember that you breathe that every day in your home. During seasons with closed windows, this air can have nowhere to go. This leads to more sicknesses, less energy, and flared up allergies.

Using air purifiers is a big way to help cut back on those air pollutants and irritants. Choose from floor models and table models with many features like fan speed, oscillation, etc. The more expensive the model, the more filtration and cleaner air you usually get. 

In addition, if the outdoor temperatures are comfortable, the biggest pollutant reducer is to use window fans and have them blow outside. Nevertheless, that only works for a limited time. But that can still reduce the amount in your home for a while.

A vacuum cleaner can make a huge difference in air quality too, assuming it's a good one. Cheaper vacuums tend to just blow the contaminants around while still picking up dirt and debris. In fact, several are marketed with HEPA filtration, but often fail to send most of the air to the filter. Others are cheaply made and the dirty air escapes through openings, pockets, or zippers. A good vacuum may not get everything, but it will surely contribute to a healthier home environment.

A home that is air contaminant free is basically nonexistent, but can be controlled to a comforting level with your dedication.
