    Make sure to use a range hood or exhaust fan while cooking to reduce indoor air pollution... It helps a lot in keeping the air clean and fresh. Also, consider investing in an air purifier for your kitchen space... It's a game-changer for improving air quality.

      Hey there! One thing that's helped me is using a range hood or exhaust fan while cooking – even if it's not the fanciest one, it can still help to remove some of those cooking fumes and particles from the air. Another tip is to try cooking with lids on pots and pans whenever possible to trap in steam and reduce the amount of airborne particles. And of course, opening windows and doors when weather permits can also help to improve air circulation and flush out any pollutants.🍳🌬️

        Hi everyone! When using a stovetop, cook on back burners whenever possible, as they are closer to the range hood or exhaust fan. This allows cooking fumes and pollutants to be drawn away more efficiently, reducing their concentration in the kitchen air.

          Certainly! Consider using a range hood or exhaust fan while cooking to remove pollutants directly from the air. Opt for cooking methods that produce less smoke and steam, such as simmering instead of frying. Keep kitchen windows open when possible to promote air circulation, and regularly clean cooking surfaces and appliances to prevent buildup of grease and particles. Additionally, investing in an air purifier with a HEPA filter can help capture airborne pollutants and improve indoor air quality.
