Die ersten Frühlingsabende und schon wird wieder alles zu einem #Lagerfeuer, was irgendwie brennbar aussieht.
In der benachbarten EFH-Siedlung wird seit gestern abend nach Sonnenuntergang alles verbrannt, was geht -> #Lüften wird so ab 19 Uhr zum Glückspiel. 🤒

Should We All Be ‘#HouseBurping’?
The German practice of “#lüften” is gaining traction on social media. It may improve your home #AirQuality.
By Dorie Chevlen, Jan. 29, 2026
Excerpt: "Experts say lüften actually works. The Environmental Protection Agency recommends opening windows to reduce the concentration of volatile organic compounds [#VOCs] in the home, which are released by a vast array of household items, including furniture, mattresses, cosmetics and cleaning products. These compounds can cause adverse reactions like headaches, itchy eyes and breathing problems.
"According to Dr. Parham Azimi, research associate at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, there’s also reason to believe airing out a home regularly could help control household #mold. In his research, keeping windows closed correlated with a higher likelihood of mold.
"Dr. Joshua Nosanchuk, a professor and microbiology researcher at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and an infectious disease physician at Montefiore Health System, said that better #ventilation could eliminate many airborne toxins that cause people irritation in the U.S. 'Part of the problem is that we hermetically seal our houses. We don’t want the air conditioning to get out and we don’t want the heat to get it out,' he said. 'No one opens their windows.' "

Mal gut durchlüften – was wir in Deutschland mit der Muttermilch aufsaugen, entdecken die US-Amerikaner gerade und erheben es zum Trend.

Im Büro wird gehustet und geschnieft - und du willst dich schützen, ohne unhöflich zu wirken. Mit ein paar unauffälligen Routinen wie Lüften, Händewaschen und smarter Distanz senkst du das Risiko spürbar, ohne Stress.#erkältungszeit #büroalltag #gesundbleiben #hygiene #lüften #arbeitsleben

House #burping: should we all adopt this #German #habit?
It’s a simple way to keep homes fresh and mould-free, and has caught on in the #US.A house doesn’t have a stomach. So: no. “House burping” is what America’s content creators have christened the German practice of #Lüften, or airing out their homes by opening windows, presumably because it’s a bit like burping a baby.

I'm still unconvinced that luften actually works outside Germany. Been doing 5-10 min opens in the bedroom at a minimum, but window moisture remains to an extent (they are old windows).
I do understand the air exchange concept though, that definitely helps in reducing in-home CO2 (which I've been wanting to track for a while)
Dehumidifier may be the better option here... also an air exchange system would be nice too.
I've seen some airex. that basically pull in cold external air into a chamber, then stop the incoming fan, before opening the outgoing fan and door to bring it into the house. -
