If You Don’t Have Allergies, Open Up Your Windows This Spring

Larry Walty II • April 16, 2021

Fresh air can do wonders for your health and help your home get rid of dangerous contaminants that may have been circulating in your home during the winter.

Kansas winters can be particularly rough and opening up your windows in the thick of it can lead to all kinds of problems. However, as the temperatures hit 50 degrees or higher, you may want to let your interiors “breathe,” by keeping your windows open. Here are a few reasons from our experts at Larry Walty Roofing on why opening your windows this spring may be a good idea.

Getting Rid of Nasty Smells

Bad odors linger in the air inside your home. These can be caused by dust stirred up during a residential or  commercial roof repair , a siding replacement, or simply by running your heating system 24/7 for the winter. By opening up your windows, you’re allowing the odor particles to escape your house and, at the same time, letting in lots of fresh air to take its place.

Improving Your Family’s Health

Fresh air has been linked to a number of health benefits. Of course, if you decide to open your windows this spring, make sure that you or your family members do not have pollen allergies as open windows can actually be a trigger.

Mental Health Benefits

A study from the University of Tulsa has found that fresh air helps with learning and cognition. This, combined with the energy efficiency of a timely  roof repair  or siding upgrade, can passively boost the moods and learning abilities of you and your children.
