How to eliminate musty, foul odours at home in the rainy season, with HCU + FAU clean-air purifiers. The rainy season brings to many people's minds dampness, mustiness and discomfort — which does not affect daily life all that much, until it really starts to bite, namely when musty, foul odours begin to appear inside the home. Whether it is the musty smell of clothes that have not dried properly, the musty smell of belongings sensitive to water and weather, or having to keep the house shut up for long stretches until the air goes stale, these are all factors that can cause musty odours in the home.
So how can we eliminate musty odours at home in a rainy season like this? Let us just say that anyone reading Sanyawit's article has come to the right place, because today we will show you all how to reduce musty odours in the home during the rainy season — using ordinary methods you can do yourself, as well as recommending an item every home should keep on hand to elevate quality of life, make living more comfortable, and make life easier than before, so you no longer have to endure the musty smells of pathogens, mould and dampness throughout the rainy season.
As for what those methods are, read on together right now!
How to Eliminate Damp, Musty Odours in the Rainy Season — Don't Endure It at the Cost of Your Sanity
Tackle damp and mustiness with charcoal
The classic method many households have surely used is placing charcoal to neutralize unpleasant odours in the fridge, or to neutralize bothersome smells around the home. But did you know that, besides eliminating unpleasant odours, this charcoal also absorbs moisture well? Just set it in a corner of the room and it helps already — an economical method, and exceptionally easy to do.
You can choose charcoal for absorbing moisture and unpleasant odours in many forms. If you have the space, you might pick out good-looking charcoal logs to arrange as a stylish, uncluttered home decoration; or if charcoal logs are inconvenient, you could use a moisture-absorbing product containing charcoal instead. As well as reducing damp, musty odours, it also makes the home look more stylish.
Tackle damp and mustiness by opening up the house to ventilate
Naturally, the best and easiest method is none other than opening up the house to ventilate. Even though it is the rainy season, we believe it surely does not rain at every single moment, so you can pick a day when it is not raining and the air is a little drier to open up the house and air it out. Better still, choose a day with strong sunshine so that outdoor sunlight can stream in and help kill off pathogens and mould inside the room. But if your room is in a recessed, shaded spot that never gets sunlight, as long as it has a window you can open it to ventilate — perhaps switching on a fan to help circulate the air, pushing the old air out and drawing fresh air in.
For airing out the house this way, Sanyawit recommends doing it on a day with strong sunshine and clear skies, because the PM 2.5 dust level tends to be fairly low then; midday to around 2 p.m. is best. Very early morning or very late evening is not recommended, however, because the dust settles lower and you might end up clearing the mould only to get dust back in return — which is not worth it. If you are unsure, it is best to check the dust level before opening up the house.
Tackle damp and mustiness by moving indoor plants
Having plants in the home, during the hot season, surely makes us feel cool and refreshed, as if always sitting in the shade of a tree. But the moment we cross into the rainy season, the room's humidity from the weather, combined with the moisture the plants transpire, may well leave us with new friends in the form of mushrooms sprouting at the base of the plant instead. So during a rainy season like this, we should move our little plants out to a well-ventilated area with sunlight for the time being, to keep the room or home from becoming too humid.
Tackle damp and mustiness by cleaning the air conditioner
Did you know? Many times the musty smell drifting about originates from the air conditioner in the room — especially a unit that has not been cleaned in a long time, where moisture, dirt and dust accumulate. Besides causing a foul smell, this also risks clogging the air conditioner and leaving it unable to cool. You should therefore clean the air conditioner every 3 or 6 months, which helps keep the room's air clean and fresh and also extends the life of your home air conditioner.
Tackle damp and mustiness by cleaning the house
For the most part, a home with clean, non-musty air is a home that is cleaned regularly. Vacuuming, mopping, and wiping down the various parts of the home help keep it free of unpleasant odours and pathogens, and also keep the home feeling new.
But if you have done all of the above and the musty rainy-season odour still will not go away, Sanyawit recommends:
The HCU pathogen-controlling air purifier + the FAU clean-air supply unit.
The HCU air purifier is the innovation for the cleanest air available today, having passed operational testing across the medical field, the industrial field, and on to residences. With its performance, the HCU air purifier can thoroughly screen impurities from the air, powerfully reducing dust, pollution, pathogens, mould and bacteria in the air, while also lessening musty odours around the home through efficient air circulation, the whole time the unit is running.
And for anyone who wants to further boost air-exchange performance, Sanyawit recommends using it together with the FAU clean-air supply unit — a solution that helps quickly supply clean air inside the home and exhaust the air that has not left the home, for cleanliness, freshness, and air that is truly and lastingly free of odours and pollution.
Air purifiers fitted with a HEPA filter capable of screening up to 99.999% of impurities from the air, changing the air around you into clean, pollution-free air the moment you switch it on.
The FAU air-supply unit, a high-airflow, quiet air supplier that helps your room circulate clean air at full efficiency, letting you breathe deeply and feel refreshed with every breath.
How good would it be if the air in our home stayed fragrant and fresh even on days of heavy rain? All of that can be achieved by reducing the factors that cause humidity, and by letting helpers like the HCU and FAU keep circulating the air inside your home so it is always fresh, new air. With just this, you can breathe freshly, with no more musty odours to trouble you.
Beyond its performance in filtering impurities and circulating away musty odours, the air purifier also runs with a quiet-operation system at just 50 decibels, so it does not disturb work or living and can be installed in a bedroom or patient room without affecting rest. In short, it is convenient, easy to use, and truly answers every need for clean-air purification.
