Testimonials

Great shows. No I am hooked on Saturday mornings as well as Sundays.  Question: Your info on all the big projects is great, but I have lots of little projects...like putting in a new vanity or changing the fixtures in the shower...I hesitate to call one of the big guns for such little jobs...can you make some suggestions...

PS. I still recommend Tittle to all my neighbors...

Seven Steps to a Healthy Home

We all want to take good care of our families. We try to eat healthy foods. We take our children to the doctor for regular checkups. We try our best to protect our family from accidents and illness. We also want to live in a safe neighborhood.

 

But many of us have hidden dangers in our home that can affect our children’s health. Just how do we track down those hidden dangers? This fact sheet will help you better understand how to make your home a healthy home.

 

The seven steps to maintaining a healthy home are:

 

Control moisture. 

Clean regularly. 

Ventilate to improve indoor air quality. 

Keep it free of combustion by-products. 

Keep it pest free. 

Remove toxic chemicals. 

Keep it comfortable. 

 

Not all of these steps can be controlled by design, construction, or remodeling. How people actually live in a home affects how healthy it is. This fact sheet focuses on the things we do to affect how healthy our home is.

 

Step 1. Control Moisture

Water and excessive humidity support the growth of mold, insects, rodents, and dust mites. Keeping a home dry helps control mold and pests, and it discourages dust mites.

 

Relative humidity inside the home should be maintained between 40 and 60 percent. When cooking or showering, use exhaust fans or open a window if the outside air is dry. If you have a clothes dryer, make sure it is vented to the outside. Increase airflow in problem areas such as closets and behind furniture on outside walls.
