How Clean is Your Indoor Air?

Your indoor air quality may not be as wonderful as you think. In fact, it may be dirtier than the outside air and affecting your health. Having clean indoor air should be a top priority since the Environmental Protection Agency estimates that people spend almost 90% of their time indoors.

Types of Pollutants

  • Respiratory tract infections stemming from secondhand smoke.
  • Radon gas. It is silent and odorless. It causes lung cancer and is present in many American homes.
  • Gases released from paints.

  • Dust-mites.
  • Pet allergens.
  • Asbestos.
  • Dry-Cleaning Chemicals.
  • Formaldehyde.
  • Pesticides.
  • Toxic chemicals in cleaning products.

How to Keep Your Indoor Air Clean

  • Increase ventilation in your house by using trickle ventilation, which is a 10-inch high screen with extra filters. It adjusts to most windows and allows fresh air in and helps indoor pollutants out.
  • Turn on the A/C. Air conditioners remove water from the atmosphere, they remove these pollutants and they also remove pollen and particulate matter.”
  • Install a HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) filter. Do NOT smoke in your home.
  • Install a Carbon monoxide monitor.
  • Test for Radon.
  • Use Low-VOC, lead-free paints.
  • Fix leaks to prevent moisture which can cause mold.
  • Clean your A/C and dehumidifier.
  • Clean up after your pets.
  • Kill Dust Mites.
  • Check for Asbestos.
  • Beware of dry cleaning chemicals.
  • Remove any formaldehyde and pesticides.
  • Remove toxic products from your home.
