Do you 'air' your house every morning?

Please help settle an ongoing dispute between me and DH! I admit I'm a bit obsessive about it but I really like to open the windows in the morning before work! Especially bathrooms after showers, bedrooms and the kitchen. My husband thinks I'm insane. He says he doesn't have time to open and close a window. Every winter we have the same disagreement every single morning. I used to just do it myself, but with 2 young DC to get ready we need team work in the mornings! Should add we live in a radon area if that makes a difference...

I had mould in the bedrooms before so now I always open the bedroom windows slightly ajar for half an hour each morning to air the rooms. I don't open the downstairs windows though.

I open the downstairs windows just before going to bed in the winter (windows stay open all summer), and the bedrooms first thing in the morning. At the current temperatures, they don't stay open really long though!

Yes, I do, if I don't I get condensation on the windows.
In summer I do it at night though (trying to avoid flies coming in, I have a massive phobia of them!🤤)

Our windows have air vents and they're almost always open so the house is constantly aired.

You see the vents just being open isn’t enough for me - I like to smell and feel the fresh air
