We do open windows, not all of them in winter. And just for a little bit. To let some fresh air in. Leaving them open a long time in winter may be difficult for those that live in colder climates.

We have a bagless vacuum and personally it felt cleaner with the bag. Cleaning the bagless out when it's full of dog fur is one nasty job.

The only thing that I follow even during winter is that I tend to open the door or window just for 5-10 minutes in order to allow fresh air into the house, if it isn't that cold I generally keep the window open for a while in the day. Apart from this I always use exhaust fan which I fix to th window during cooking which removes all the unwanted air and pumps in fresh air.

We just open our windows in the winter time for about five or ten minutes just to air the house out. I really seems to make a difference with the so called stale air inside.
