Create a Clean Room During a Wildfire
- Choose a room that is comfortable and fits everyone. Having an attached bathroom is helpful, if available.
- Avoid creating smoke and other particles indoors from cooking, smoking or burning candles.
- Filter the air with a portable air cleaner that does not product ozone.
- Close windows and doors to prevent smoke from entering the room.
- Stay cool. Run fans or set your air conditioner to recirculate. If possible, use a MERV 13-rated filter. Close blinds and curtains.
