I wouldn’t be so sure that your living space isn’t filled with carcinogens, too. The air inside is coming somewhere, and furniture, carpets etc. often gas out harmful substances.

  Depends on what it’s made of. If it’s like pure, unadultered cotton or wool it’s probably inert, but the kinds of carpet that are supposed to cover a room wall-to-wall and have a sort of rubbery bottom tend to be rather unhealthy.

    It’s something that everyone should have imo. Especially with increased risk of forest fires. I have the Shark HP102 which has built in sensors, most of them do I think. Ofc it’s always good to cross reference. :3
