We take a week to 10 days to clean the house out in the spring and will start working on this in about 2 weeks. We run HEPA filters on every floor which helps with dust and pollen. We will open the windows for fresh air but it's still heating season in my area with temperatures in the 20s at night.

We open the bedroom windows every day if it’s not snowing or raining or very warm.

I air my house out at least once a month

snowverhang! leave it to a new hampshirite to come up with the best puns… beautiful photo

They came with the lights.

Hepa filters are a great idea! UV lights are nothing more than a gimmick in the consumer level though FYI, the bulbs need to be changed out like every 6 months which no one on the consumer level does

I’ve been doing it 15 min everyday it’s 30 or higher. Makes a huge difference.

Because taxation is theft. No transportation should receive subsidies.

You're for real asking Reddit how to air out a house? Open doors and windows. Do we need to tell you what the next step is once you get cold?

was quoted ~$4500 upgrade cost to add it to new construction build

Being free to do idiotic things that might ultimately end in disaster is part of being free.

Why? Is it because taxpayers who don't drive a car don't deserve infrastructure?

I try to air out the house a few times a week. I put a small fan in the window to pull in fresh air at one end, and turn on every fan in the house. I set a timer for myself, and only do about 5-10 minutes, but I feel like fresh air in the house makes everything feel better!

All windows open

Stuffy air is swept aside

Spring is here at last!

I packed my window cracks with that clay caulk stuff. It's effective, and you can remove and replace it on those warm days! It's still a hassle but not as much as plastic.

We installed one a few years ago. It really helps keep the stale air and kitchen odors away.

Counterpoint: I bought a few air purifiers with the activated charcoal/HEPA filters, and built-in UV lights, and put them in bedrooms and the home office.

When it's sunny out I crack the doors to let the fresh air in.

Thanks. Did you self install or have it done? Mind sharing how much it ran?

Mine's from Carrier.

Which one did you install?

Can I ask how much it's going to run you?

If it's nice, I open a couple windows and air it out. Heat gets turned down during the process to keep dollars from blowing out the window. Will also do it after someone's been sick. Just makes the whole place smell fresher.

That’s good!
