The latest 10-day forecast for Ridgebrook, Summerlin South, Nevada calls for a mix of sun and clouds, with highs in the mid-70s Fahrenheit and lows in the mid-50s. Meteorologist Sara Tonks explains how regularly 'burping' your home by opening windows for a quick burst of fresh air can dramatically improve indoor air quality, sleep, and overall health by clearing out harmful pollutants that can build up in stale indoor environments.

Why it matters

Poor indoor air quality is a growing health concern, as people spend more time indoors and homes become increasingly airtight. Stale air can trap pollutants like dust, mold, and chemicals, leading to respiratory issues, sleep problems, and other negative health effects. Regularly introducing fresh outdoor air is an easy, low-cost way for homeowners to maintain a healthy living environment.

The details

Meteorologist Sara Tonks recommends 'burping' your home by opening windows for 5-10 minutes each day, or whenever you notice stuffy, stale air. This quick burst of fresh air can dramatically improve indoor air quality by flushing out pollutants and allowing for better circulation. Tonks notes that this practice is especially important in newer, more energy-efficient homes that are designed to be airtight.
