How to Make Your Home Pollution-Proof: Top Air Quality & Cleaning Hacks for Jalandhar (2025)

Jalandhar, just like many cities in Punjab and North India, faces seasonal pollution, airborne dust, vehicle emissions, and indoor allergens. Even when your home is tidy, the air you breathe can still be compromised. At CleanNest, we believe a clean home isn’t just about what you see—it’s about what you breathe. Here are smart tips, natural hacks, and professional cleaning advice to make your home safer, fresher, and pollution-proof.

1. Prioritize Indoor Air Quality

• Keep windows & doors closed when outdoor air is heavy with dust or smog. Open them during times when air is cleaner (early morning or after rain).

• Use exhaust fans in kitchen & bathrooms to reduce humidity and odors.

• Consider air purifiers, especially ones with HEPA filters, to trap fine particles.

2. Cleaning Habits that Reduce Indoor Pollution

• Instead of sweeping only (which can stir dust), use mopping or vacuuming with good filters. Microfiber cloths trap dust better than regular cloths.

• Wash bedding, curtains, pillowcases regularly in hot water to kill dust mites and reduce allergens.

• Clean filters of AC units, fans; dust ceiling fans & vents. Small details, big effect.

3. Natural & Gentle Cleaning Hacks

• Use salt + baking soda + essential oils (like lemon or tea tree) for toilets and surfaces — these reduce bacteria & odors without harsh chemicals.

• Vinegar for mirror & glass surfaces, natural disinfectants over chemical sprays to reduce VOCs in indoor air.

• Avoid strong chemical cleaners or mixing them (can release harmful fumes).

4. Seasonal & Weather-Based Cleaning Adjustments

• During winter and Delhi Smog season etc., reduce outdoor exposure of clothes/drapes—wash after exposure.

• After rains or high humidity, mold can develop — dry rugs, carpets, cushions. Use dehumidifiers if possible.

• When air quality improves (after rain etc.), ventilate rooms so stale air escapes and fresh air circulates.

5. When to Call Professionals

• If dust accumulation is heavy (on surfaces, vents), or there are strong odors or mold, a professional deep clean by CleanNest can help.

• Professional carpet & upholstery cleaning is especially effective; mud, dust, allergens get deep within fibres.

• Deep cleaning also for AC ducts, kitchen exhausts & chimneys which store hidden pollutants.
