Key Factors for Healthy Homes
There are seven key factors in maintaining a healthy home. A healthy home should be
clean, free of contaminants, and kept dry to prevent mold and structural damage. It
should also be well-maintained, pest-free, and safe for its occupants. Lastly, proper
ventilation is essential to ensure good air quality and overall well-being.
