Q: Where is the sound coming from?

• <div><p>Identifying the source of noises is your first step to soundproofing a room without overspending. Generally, sound comes from inside or outside of the house.

External noises generally include incremental weather, disturbing neighbors, and street traffic. Inside noises require you to soundproof floors, ceilings, and doors, whereas outside noises may require you to soundproof your attic, windows, and walls facing the streets.</p></div>

Q: What keeps dust off fans?

• <div><p>Keeping dust off fans can keep them working optimally and help keep dust mites or bacteria from building up. Dust fans weekly with a duster, microfiber cloth, old pillowcase, or vacuum attachment. You can also try spraying a clean fan with a store-bought dust-repellent product or making a DIY dust-repellent with water and a small amount of liquid fabric softener mixed in.</p></div>
