There are few things about the pandemic that have been good.
- I have not been a fan of spending so much time in the HVAC security of my home.
Having my normal life back would be much better. But, this is what it is and it won’t last forever. If staying healthy means staying in my house and soaking up the HVAC then, I can live with that. There has been one benefit from dealing with the pandemic. I have addressed my overall health much more consciously. It was overdue anyway. But, I felt that it was really important to make sure that I started making the healthier choices on a consistent basis. One of those choices was something that I really knew nothing about until this all happened. I recently learned that the HVAC has so much to do with our respiratory and immune health. It makes total sense when you think about it. Just like your diet, good stuff in is good for you. Same thing with the air that we breathe in our home. Somehow, in my mind, just being inside the house makes the air cleaner. Well, I was totally wrong about that. Poor indoor air quality is a leading cause of respiratory distress and poor immune health. I immediately upgraded our HVAC air filter to the HEPA type filter. This air filter will trap and remove nearly all of the airborne contaminants that chip away at our health. I am even thinking of taking the air quality to the next level. My husband and I are looking into installing a whole house air purifier. That thing will kill airborne hazards and make the air as clean as possible.
