Summer is here - do we think about indoor air quality?

Of course, any season and all seasons are the time to think about indoor air quality. In the summer, we often keep our a/c on a lot (please don't!) and the home sealed tightly to keep the cool air in.
Here's a few tips for improving your indoor air quality:
• get a really great air filter
• keep windows/doors open as much as possible to let the outside air in
• use non-toxic cleaning products and low or no v.o.c. paints
• have plenty of green plants around - natures air filters!
• Change your furnace or HVAC filters every quarter minimum - this is probably the best and most important thing to do.
