Pharmacist Tiina Vaitomaa believes that comprehensive health is built upon small steps and acts in your everyday life.
“I get easily excited about new things and I’m eager to try things out both at home and at the office”, says Vaitomaa.
Fresh air available during renovation
Vaitomaa lives and works in central Helsinki. After moving to the centre of the city and having her apartment undergo renovation, made Vaitomaa soon realized the meaning of a healthy air.
“Our new home, which is located in an old building has been totally renovated. Due to this renovation, there were loads of chemicals in our indoor air. These chemicals then lead to health related problems too, such as headaches, flues and tiredness. Living in that environment made me realize the importance of air quality,” Vaitomaa recalls.
“The effect is spectacular. All of our guests have also noticed the good air in our living room, the air is fresh and humid.”
Vaitomaa wished for an air purifying solution and found Naava after some googling on the Internet. “The more I found out about Naava, the more enthusiastic I got”, Vaitomaa says.
The unique interior of the apartment is designed by interior designer Heidi Jaari.
The intelligent Naava catches the attention of the guests
Vaitomaa follows up on her Naava actively. “I’m interested in the world of technology and the solutions it offers, so for me, it’s very fascinating to follow up on my Naava.”
At her home, Naava is functioning at full capacity. “The effect is spectacular. All of our guests have also noticed the good air in our living room, the air is fresh and humid,” says Vaitomaa.
Home ecosystem
Due to her profession, health and well-being play an important part in Vaitomaa’s life.
“I heard about a home ecosystem for the first time from my pharmacy’s partner company HYLA. Home is our safe harbour, but it is also its own ecosystem", says Vaitomaa.
As we spend up to 90 % of our time indoors, the quality of the air in our homes, has a major effect on our health. Decreasing the amount of the mold, allergens, other chemicals from the indoor air, has become a growing challenge and expenditure on the public economy.
The sources of chemicals in our households are for example detergents, indoor scents and textiles. Especially in small apartments the chemical load can turn up to be quite massive. “By our own choices we can develop an ecosystem in our homes. Small acts, like favoring biologically decomposing detergents can can have a big impact," advises Vaitomaa.
Another factor that has a big impact on our health, is air humidity. Inside Naava, the Remo-box tracks Naava's functions and the environment surrounding it, with precision. “Naava is an excellent way of optimizing the humidity of the air. I can follow up Naava at home and in my pharmacy through the Naava OS -technology,” says Vaitomaa.
