Q: I always look forward to the end of summer when we can open up our house and enjoy the cooling outdoor breezes. I'm concerned about this flow of air, however, since I have read often about controlling outdoor air. Is it bad for us to open the windows when the weather allows?
A: Nope. Opening up your home to ventilation means that fresh air will be coming in and diluting or even totally getting rid of stale air and contaminants, such as radon, that may accumulate.
