Air out after cleaning, painting or buying new furniture
When you have been cleaning, painting the walls or buying new furniture, it is important to remember to air out. The air quality in your home or workplace can be affected by these activities, and it is therefore important to provide fresh air to ensure a good indoor climate. In this article, we will take a closer look at why it is important to air out after cleaning, painting or buying new furniture, and how you can best ensure a healthy indoor climate.
Cleaning agents and chemicals
According to the Danish Environmental Protection Agency , it is important to be aware of the chemicals in your cleaning. Many cleaning products contain substances that can negatively affect air quality if they are not properly vented. Therefore, it is a good idea to ensure good ventilation after cleaning to avoid inhaling harmful substances.
The same trend is seen in a report from the National Research Center for the Working Environment , which points out the importance of airing out after using cleaning agents. The report emphasizes that good ventilation can have a positive effect on air quality and thus on your well-being.
Paint and indoor climate
When you paint the walls in your home or workplace, the paint can emit harmful fumes that affect air quality. According to sundhed.dk , it is therefore important to ventilate well after painting to avoid inhaling these harmful substances.
New furniture and degassing
When you buy new furniture for your home or workplace, the furniture can release chemicals that affect air quality. According to the Homeowners' Knowledge Center, it is therefore a good idea to air out well after purchasing new furniture to reduce the risk of inhaling harmful substances.
