We have all sizes and lots of fragrances, Lavender, for relaxing qualities, tea tree if you have skin conditions or want to disinfect something, including unscented, which is Baby Mild. Try a small size, or one of the bar soaps. I'm sure you'll find dozens of uses as I have. If you buy it on our website and would like a sample of recipes that I use it in, just include a note and we'll include those.

Natural Air Fresheners

I love for my house to smell good. Not like pine cleaner, clorox or other chemical cleaners. But fresh and clean. I use a variety of ways to accomplish this. The first is by using Fresh Wave Products. I became a believer in these products when we were given a sample at a Trade Show. We were traveling and checked into a hotel where the room smelled strongly of smelly carpet powder (to read about this go here). I have sensitivities and have more than once ended up sick in a hotel room. Time to give the Fresh Wave a test. We sprayed the room, went to eat dinner and when we cam back, the room truly smelled fresh, no more odors.

Our dog, DJ stays in my husband's office most days. He keeps a jar of Fresh Wave Crystals in there at all times. An all-natural product, when you first open or spray it has a citrus smell. But as it absorbs the odor, it just smells fresh.

Love candles? Try soy candles.

Stay tuned for more ways to keep your house fresh and smelling good as I add more products to www.vacshack.com.

Indoor Air, a Point of Differentiation
For Miele, safeguarding the air its customers breathe is a priority. Indoor air quality is a concern for everyone, not just those with allergies and asthma. Vacuuming can contribute greatly to indoor air pollution if a vacuum doesn’t retain the dust, dirt and allergens it collects from floors and furnishings. That’s why it’s so significant that the S5 series has been awarded HEPA certification by the DMT Air Quality Testing Institute for “excellent air quality.” This means the entire vacuum, and not just the filter, conforms to the most stringent standards for filtration (EN1822). Miele was the first to receive this prestigious certification for its innovative Sealed SystemTM technology. The key to Miele’s exceptional filtration is their exclusive combination of a Sealed SystemTM made of quality components, an electrostatic IntensiveClean PlusTM dust/filter bag and a selection of three high-quality filter cartridges that include a post-motor HEPA filter with a charcoal insert for odor control.
Quality Tested to Last 20 Years
Every Miele vacuum that leaves the production line in Bielefeld, Germany is put through rigorous quality checks before it is deemed worthy to bear the “Miele” name. In fact, Miele’s unique Vortex Motor System™ is engineered to last for an average of 20 years of residential use – and to provide the same superior suction in year 20 as it does in year one. Like the durable and powerful Miele-made Vortex motor, all Miele’s parts are road-tested for endurance.
Description:
The Active H.E.P.A. (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filter not only captures and retains tiny, lung-damaging particles (including dust mite feces and pollen), it also uses the same Generally Activated Charcoal filter (GAC) that the Active Air Clean filter uses to absorb odors. This Miele filter conforms to the new stringent European standard for filtration (EN 1822). The Active HEPA Filter is an optional exhaust filter for Miele series S300 through S600 canisters. The sealed system in Miele vacuum cleaners retain 99.97% of pollens, household dust, dust mite droppings and other allergens as small as 0.3 m in size when equipped with a Certified HEPA Filter. This filter is highly recommended for people with dust related allergies or asthma.
