It’s funny because I used to drive my folks crazy by always complaining about the air quality when it was bad.
I never could stand seeing dust floating in the air because I felt like it was going right into my mouth and eyes, and I didn’t like that! When they asked how they were supposed to improve the air quality to my liking, I told my mother she should vacuum more often to suck up all the excess dirt and debris. I told my father he should have the HVAC professionals clean the ductwork system and we should invest in a quality air purification system. My parents just stared at me for a moment and then started laughing. They asked why I was concerned about such things when I was just a child. I tried to tell them that having good air quality is important for our health, but they just shrugged it off. The best my father would do was invest in air filters that had slightly better MERV ratings than the ones he was previously using. Admittedly, that small change improved the air quality a lot. I also talked my father into getting the ductwork cleaning done a little later, and that helped a lot in improving the air quality also, but he wouldn’t get this home service done very often. These days in my own home, I always have the best air quality possible. I use HEPA filters and a UV air purification system. It’s funny because my parents say to me these days, “Why didn’t you tell us how to get such exceptional air quality?” Hey, I tried to tell them long ago!
