72: How to Improve Indoor Air Quality With David Milburn of HypoAir

The Primal Shift

Your indoor air quality might be worse than you think, and it’s not just about dust or odors. The air in most homes can harbor hidden dangers like mold spores, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and even harmful bacteria — all of which can quietly undermine your health. 

Plus, modern building materials and design choices often make the problem worse, sealing contaminants inside and creating environments that allow them to thrive.

In this episode, David Milburn of HypoAir explains why so many homes struggle with indoor air quality, and highlights a range of solutions that are as practical as they are innovative. 

One effective solution that many people overlook is ionization, which can be leveraged indoors to neutralize pollutants, combat mold growth, and reduce toxins that traditional filters often miss. 

Whether it’s addressing mold from damp crawl spaces, mitigating air pollution from nearby roadways, or choosing the right air purification technology for your space, Milburn’s insights will help you transform your home into a healthier environment.

If you’ve been overlooking the air you breathe, this episode is a wake-up call to take control of what enters your lungs and your life.
