I was wondering what would be the best way to reduce the amount of dust in the house and get cleaner air? We have a newborn so we'd like to make things a little cleaner. I buy good furnace filters now but I'm wondering about other things that would help.
Answer:
Furniture upholstered in fabric, carpets, scatter mats, pets, certain embossed wallpaper, anything that cannot be wiped off, collects dust so you might want to give that some thought.
In the interests of retaining credibility that I worked several decades to establish and in fairness to all, I don’t comment on various (building, electrical, plumbing) codes, brand-specific products, recommend prices, people nor companies for various projects.
Remember, even if you don’t do your own work around the house have to hire someone, you put yourself at a great advantage when you can intelligently discuss a project with the various trades people.
