I was curious about the levels of CO2 in my room so I went and bought a sensor for my bedroom. I was somewhat appalled when I woke up this morning with heavy eyelids to see the concentration at 1700 ppm.

Guess I have to leave my door open now.

    Does your HVAC have a “circ” setting? On mine, it turns on the fan only (i.e. no climate control, just air movement) every 30 minutes.

    In the event of a house fire, a closed bedroom door can truly save your life.

      Oh huh, maybe I should install a cat door on my bedroom door. Though my landlord would probably not like that very much

        Doors come off their hinges super easy with usually 6 phillips head screws. Remove the existing door, stash it, install whatever door you like with attached cat door. When you move out, reinstall the old door.

            Could be, depends on the door and the one you’re buying to replace it. When I did it I got a door without hinges on it for cheap and hung it off the existing hinges.

          Did this for my home. Doors are all 100 years old, didn’t feel right cutting a hole for the cats, so bought a solid core door for the basement so they can go up and down as they please.
