5 Steps How to Breathe Freely and Create a Healthier Home for Your Loved Ones

At Jewelry and More Auctions, we spend a lot of time thinking about the things we keep in our homes. Whether it’s a stunning Rainbow Ring or a rare commemorative coin, we take pride in the beauty and history of our collections. But there is one thing in your home that is more precious than any gemstone, yet completely invisible: the air you breathe.

Many of us spend up to 90% of our lives indoors, surrounded by our favorite treasures. However, indoor air can often be five times more polluted than outdoor air. Dust, allergens, and invisible pathogens don’t just affect your health; they can also settle on your delicate jewelry and coin collections.

That’s why we are proud to support the America Breathe Freely campaign. This initiative isn’t just about "cleaning" the air; it’s about a scientific revolution in home wellness. By following these five steps, you can transform your living space into a sanctuary of health for your family and your heirlooms.


Step 1: Shift from Passive Filtering to Active Purification

Most people think that a standard air filter is enough. You put a HEPA filter in a box, it sucks in some air, and hopefully, it catches the bad stuff. But that is "passive" technology. It relies on the air finding its way to the filter. If a sneeze happens on the other side of the room, that filter is a long way away.

The core of the America Breathe Freely mission is introducing ActivePure Technology. Originally developed for use on the International Space Station, ActivePure doesn't wait for pollutants to come to it. Instead, it sends out specialized "scrubbing" molecules that travel through the air and onto surfaces, seeking out and neutralizing contaminants at the molecular level.

Think of it as the difference between a security guard standing at the door (passive) and a specialized cleaning crew that moves through every corner of the room (active). For collectors, this means fewer particles settling on your sterling silver chains or vintage brooches.

Step 2: Embrace Your Inner Astronaut (The NASA Connection)

Why settle for "home grade" when you can have "space grade"? The history of ActivePure technology is rooted in a NASA-funded project designed to keep plants alive in space. NASA needed a way to remove ethylene gas: a natural byproduct of plants that causes them to wither: from the closed environment of a spacecraft.

This research led to the creation of an "ethylene scrubber" that used UV light and a titanium dioxide catalyst. Today, that same science has been refined and inducted into the Space Technology Hall of Fame. When you bring an ActivePure device into your home via AmericaBreatheFreely.com, you are utilizing technology that has protected astronauts in the most extreme environments known to man.

It’s not just "air cleaning"; it’s orbital-level science designed to keep your family safe from airborne viruses, bacteria, and mold.

Step 3: Protect Your Treasures and Your Lungs Simultaneously

As a community of collectors at Jewelry and More Auctions, we know that environmental factors are the enemy of longevity. Humidity and airborne pollutants can cause tarnish on silver and degradation of organic materials in vintage jewelry.

By maintaining a purified environment, you are essentially creating a "clean room" for your collection. ActivePure has been shown in peer-reviewed studies to reduce airborne SARS-CoV-2, MRSA, and even mold. When the air is cleaner, your home is cleaner, and your maintenance routine for your jewelry assets becomes much easier. After all, if the air is clear of particulates, there’s less dust to settle on that intricate Swan Vintage Brooch you just won at auction.

Step 4: Implement a Holistic Wellness Routine

Technology is a powerful tool, but it works best when combined with smart lifestyle habits. To truly "breathe freely," consider these three wellness tips:

  1. Control Your Humidity: High humidity encourages mold growth, while very low humidity can cause certain gemstones to become brittle. Aim for a consistent 40-50% humidity level.
  2. Choose "Green" Cleaners: Avoid harsh chemicals and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that off-gas from standard cleaning supplies. These gases can irritate your respiratory system and react with the metals in your jewelry.
  3. Ventilate Wisely: While ActivePure handles the heavy lifting of purification, a quick blast of fresh air on a clear day can help refresh the oxygen levels in your home.

When you combine these habits with the active power of NASA-certified technology, you create a fortress of wellness for your loved ones.

Step 5: Join the "America Breathe Freely" Movement

The America Breathe Freely campaign is more than just a marketing slogan; it’s a commitment to public health. By visiting AmericaBreatheFreely.com, you can learn more about how this technology is being used in schools, hospitals, and homes across the country to create safer indoor environments.
