The tide of decoration is quietly coming. However, do you know the hidden misunderstandings behind the renovation? Let's explore how to make home decoration not only beautiful, but also healthy and environmentally friendly.

First of all, many people think that the newly renovated house only needs to be ventilated and dried, and the indoor formaldehyde can be greatly reduced. But the truth is not so simple. Although benzene, ammonia and other substances in the air can volatilize quickly, the problem of formaldehyde is far more than 'drying'. The volatilization period of formaldehyde can be as long as 15 years! Although the drying room is important, don't take it lightly. This reminds us that we must be cautious when choosing materials.

Let's take a look at whether eco-friendly materials are really "eco-friendly". Environmentally friendly and standardized decoration materials usually refer to the control of harmful substances within the safety value allowed by the state in the process of material production, rather than harmless. This leads us to think that decoration does not have to be overly extravagant, and the real environmental protection is to minimize the use of chemicals, so as to truly reduce the pollution in the room.

Another common misconception is that the absence of odor means good air quality. Although many decorative materials on the market do not emit peculiar smells, their odorless formaldehyde release is still silent, threatening your living environment. Therefore, it is more important to conduct specific analysis, scientific evaluation, and select materials and furniture that have passed the quality inspection.

Interestingly, many people like to "control" air quality with natural materials such as plants, orange peel or tea bags, and while this makes the air fragrant and adds a touch of nature to the home, it does not eliminate harmful substances in the first place. Sometimes, simple solutions are not scientific and may not be effective.

While pursuing aesthetics, we should pay more attention to the safety and health of the living environment. Home is our warmest harbor and the safest fortress. Renovation is the first step to a happy life, but it should never be a hidden danger to health. Let us plan reasonably and choose safe materials when decorating at home, and do not forget the responsibility of environmental protection, so as to create a comfortable and peaceful home environment. So, are you ready to start your journey to a healthy renovation? (Original decoration master)
