Indoor Air Quality
Pollution Prevention is key. Good ventilation in the fire place and kitchen. No incense. Natural beeswax candles.
Radon Testing

Ventilation
open windows whenever whether permits
only use strong scented products in very well ventilated areas like outside
Air Purification
Air purifiers, air conditioners and dehumidifiers
Put mechanical pleated filters in ac ducts
vacuum with HEPA filters
don't use filters treated with microban
clean gutters regularly
musty smell= mold spores
evaporative humidifier or steam vaporizer (clean with hydrogen peroxide)
