Air filters

Change or clean the air filters in your HVAC system regularly.

Clean filters provide better air circulation and filtration, reducing the amount of dust that settles in your home.

Humidity control

Use a humidifier to maintain optimal humidity levels, usually between 30 and 50%, to minimize the introduction of dust into the air.

Sealing gaps and cracks

Seal cracks and crevices around windows, doors, baseboards and other openings to prevent dust from entering your home.

Use caulk or other suitable sealing materials to create a barrier against dust penetration.

Regular cleaning of ventilation systems

Clean the vents and ducts in your home periodically to remove accumulated dust.

Consider hiring professionals to perform a thorough air duct cleaning to improve indoor air quality and minimize dust spread.

Air purifiers

Consider using an air purifier with a HEPA filter to remove airborne dust particles and allergens.
