For me, outdoor air quality is just one piece of the equation. So many things we bring into our homes "shed" dust, odors, chemicals that I feel confined indoor air may be riskier than outdoor air. In addition, if I run them full time, I actually see a marled difference in the amount of dust on my floors and furniture. Not sure of your electric rates, but ours cost less than $5.00/mo each to run full time.
Seems like a big return for a liitle money.

They do say that just building materials are full of toxicity as is cooking with gas, though I ran the fan while cooking. And have a shoeless house. But the grit that accumulates on window sills is awful so you are right. I live in Northern CA and rates are high, but I should see if I could figure out what it’s costing me.

I will have to work until I die so I live frugally. My lung illness started with TB contracted at 19 on a trip to India and misdiagnosed for a year. So there’s extensive damage to my lungs that has really affected my work history even though I managed to become an attorney despite the ongoing problems that emanated from damaged lungs after TB was cured. That being said I have a lot of hope and have managed quite well in spite of this. Thx for listening and for the good tips always!

Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah!
