I don’t have the heating on during the day if possible. I wear lots of layers.

I like to have the bedroom and bathroom windows open, even when it’s cold, to freshen things up and ‘change the air’.

What I want to ask, if you have the heating on during the day, do you have any windows open or not? If so, it would seem to defeat the object surely.

Just curious really.

One of the effects of the current weather is an increase in air pollution. Therefore at present, it's much healthier to keep your windows closed and use air purifiers.

I always understood that air purifiers were as polluting in the home as the pollutants outside it. Something to do with using ozone.

I think modern air purifiers use HEPA filters, not chemicals.
