A new year brings new goals—and one of the most powerful ways to start fresh is by improving the air you breathe every day.

Your home’s air impacts your sleep, energy, focus, and overall wellness. With a few small upgrades, you can create a cleaner, more comfortable space that supports your health year-round. Here are five simple, effective ways to refresh your home’s air for the New Year:

1. Purify the Air You Breathe

Indoor air can hold dust, allergens, viruses, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs)—especially during the winter when windows stay closed. A whole-home air purifier removes these airborne particles, delivering clean, Healthy Air to every room. Cleaner air supports easier breathing, sharper focus, and fewer seasonal irritants—so you can start the year feeling your best.

2. Control Indoor Humidity Levels

Cold weather and indoor heating can make your home’s air overly dry, leading to dry skin, static, and irritated sinuses. By maintaining balanced humidity—ideally between 40% and 60%*—you can protect both your comfort and your home’s wood floors, furniture, and musical instruments. A whole-home humidifier maintains the right humidity level, ensuring you start the year comfortable and protected.

3. Ventilate for a Fresh Start

When your home is sealed tightly for energy efficiency, stale air and pollutants can build up. A fresh air ventilation system introduces a steady flow of fresh outdoor air while exhausting stale indoor air, helping reduce CO₂ and odors. With proper ventilation, your home feels cleaner, smells fresher, and supports better concentration—perfect for hitting your New Year reset.

4. Replace Air Filters Regularly

Replace your AprilAire Air Filter every 6–12 months, depending on the model. Regular filter changes help your system run efficiently, extend equipment life, and keep dust, allergens, and airborne pollutants from recirculating through your home. You’ll notice cleaner air, fewer allergy triggers, and more consistent comfort throughout every season.

Only genuine AprilAire replacements ensure the clean, Healthy Air your home needs. Off-brand replacements do not meet AprilAire standards for airflow, filtration, and efficiency. Look for the icon on the packaging to ensure you’re choosing genuine AprilAire parts—so your system can continue performing at its best while delivering trusted Healthy Air to your family.

5. Monitor and Manage Your Indoor Air Quality

Smart thermostats help you maintain comfort with ease. They can learn your routines, adjust on schedule, and customize on the fly to keep every room comfortable and energy efficient. Whether you’re home, away, or following a set routine, an AprilAire Smart Thermostat ensures your system is always working in sync with your lifestyle.

Air quality monitors continuously track temperature, humidity, and air purity throughout your home. With this insight, you can better understand your home’s environment and make informed adjustments to maintain Healthy Air—so every space feels clean, balanced, and comfortable.
