3m Filtrete There is more to keeping your home clean than just cleaning surfaces like counters and carpeting. A really clean home starts by cleaning the air your family breathes. Do you notice dust particles floating in a stream of sunlight? Attack the enemy, with indoor air quality. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says the air inside your home can be two to five times worse than the air outside. In fact the EPA identifies indoor air pollution as one of the top five environmental risks to public health. And if you're like many people, you probably spend about 90% of your time indoors. Getting ready for summer & winter means more than just closing your home tight and dialing up or down the thermostat. Eliminating drafts and air leaks may have the unwanted side effect of sealing in allergens. Remember to change your air filter. And, while cranking up the heat, or dialing down the air conditioning, may feel good, it can also burn up energy dollars.
