- On warm days, open doors or windows and turn on fans -- the one on the heating-cooling system or ceiling fans to push out bad air and bring in fresh air
- Limit use of hot water.
- Take showers instead of baths (lessens chances of UTI).
- Limit number of showers per week when possible.
- Take showers in early part of the day to limit exposure during sleeping hours.
- If you have 2 bathrooms, use the one farthest away from sleeping areas.
- Use exhaust fans in bathrooms and kitchen.
