Real hardwood improves air quality

These days, we want to know what’s in everything we put in and on our bodies. But did you ever stop and think about what you put in and on your home? Sorry to break it to you, but if it ain’t wood, it ain’t good. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) confirms that homes with hardwood floors have better indoor air quality than homes with other types of look-alike flooring. Hardwood is hypoallergenic and easy to clean.
