<\/p>\n

Use this map as your guide on your journey to freshness (with the help of dorm air purifiers and fans)<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Your overpriced burrito smelled great when it was delivered last night. The remnants this morning? Not so much. Ditto last week\u2019s pizza boxes on the kitchen counter and under the coffee table.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Cleaning up immediately after feasting is an odor-prevention must. This means taking out the trash and recycling \u2014 extra credit if you compost \u2014 and doing any dishes. However, smells linger. Sure, you can scrub the floor super-clean, but you still need help scrubbing your indoor air.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Get yourself an air purifier\u00a0for your dorm<\/span>. Seriously. An effective air purifier, like a\u00a0Honeywell air purifier<\/a>, quietly\u00a0cleans<\/a> and recirculates a room\u2019s air several times an hour. The right air purifier sucks in dirty air, filters it to capture microscopic airborne particles like smoke, pet dander, dust, and dust mite debris, returning<\/span> cleaner air to your room 4.8 times per hour.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When shopping for an air purifier that will be most effective, look for one that uses\u00a0activated carbon<\/a> filter <\/span>that is engineered to\u00a0reduce<\/a>\u00a0not only odors, but dust, pollen, pet dander, VOCs (volatile organic compounds, gasses, or chemicals emitted from household products), and smoke.

It\u2019s all about air circulation! Using an <\/span>air-circulating fan<\/span><\/a> in your dorm prevents stagnant pockets of moist air from accumulating and getting odorous. Even without an open window, dorm fans create currents to keep air moving consistently. An extra plus is that your fan will keep you cool if your dorm is hot and\/or stuffy!<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Your new workout shoes look cool, but the scents they\u2019re tracking indoors aren\u2019t doing you any favors.
