Bad air indoors is as much of a problem as outdoor air pollution. But there are easy ways to ensure the air we breathe is clean and safe. Outdoor air has gone from bad to very nasty in recent years. Indeed, the millions of deaths each year due to air pollution suggest that the problem could be more serious than COVID-19. Worse, however, is the fact that the air inside homes and offices can be just as hazardous to human health. Thankfully, there are simple solutions to improve the quality of air indoors — with HomePure Zayn.

1. THE AIR WE BREATHE
Exposure to outdoor air pollution can lead to death and serious illness. Yet staying in can prove just as tricky
considering the high prevalence of indoor contaminants, among them:
● Dust and bacteria ● Pet dander and pollen ● Tobacco smoke ● Microplastics ● Hazardous gases
The good news, however, is that indoor air quality can be improved with a few simple steps.
Carpets, furniture and drapes can
trap dust, pet dander and other
particulates. The best solution is to
replace carpeting with hardwood or
tiled floors and curtains with blinds.
If that’s not an option, ensure that all
these are cleaned regularly.

On top of releasing oxygen, plants are
natural air filters. Devil’s ivy, also
known as the money plant, thrives in
low light and is great for pulling
contaminants like benzene,
formaldehyde and carbon monoxide
from the air. Ferns and lilies,
meanwhile, have the added benefit of
being perfect for sprucing up spaces.

Ventilation is vital to controlling
humidity indoors. But just as
important is ensuring that doors and
windows are adequately sealed to
keep out dust and pollutants. Home
supply stores have numerous options
for sealing cracks and gaps, so look
into those.

Cooking vents filter out harmful
contaminants while air ducts help
distribute air throughout the home.
Unfortunately, both these, as well as
dirty air-conditioning filters, can
make indoor air worse when not
properly maintained. Engage a
professional to regularly check and
service these.

Invest in a good, compact air purifier
with a multi-step filtration system,
such as the HomePure Zayn, which is
capable of expelling bad odour and
filtering out allergens, viruses,
bacteria, mould, airborne particulates
and microplastics as small as 0.1
microns. The HomePure Zayn is also
equipped to cover a 36 sq/m area —
that’s five (5) times more than most
other air purifiers.
