Smoke-day plan

When Perth's air turns smoky, do these in order.

1. Check the air. Live reading at clearairperth.com, and alerts on Emergency WA.
2. Close up. Windows, doors and the pet door.
3. Turn off the evaporative cooler. It pulls smoke inside.
4. Recirculate. Reverse-cycle air con is fine on recirculate.
5. Pick a clean room and run a purifier on high with the door shut.
6. Don't add smoke. No candles, incense, frying or wood fire.
7. Take it easy. Skip outdoor exercise. Children and older people stay in.
8. Follow action plans for asthma and heart conditions.
9. Check on neighbours who are older or live alone.

Chest pain, severe breathlessness or collapse: call 000. For advice any time: healthdirect 1800 022 222.
