According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), indoor air can often be more polluted than outdoor air due to the accumulation of dust, allergens, chemicals, and other pollutants. Sources of indoor pollution include cleaning products, building materials, and furniture, as well as mold, pet dander, and tobacco smoke.

Poor IAQ Can Affect Health

Poor indoor air quality has been linked to a range of health issues, especially respiratory problems. Long-term exposure can lead to conditions like asthma, allergies, headaches, fatigue, and even more serious issues like lung disease or cardiovascular problems. Vulnerable groups like children, elderly people, and those with pre-existing health conditions are at higher risk.

Air Quality Can Be Improved with Simple Steps

Improving indoor air quality doesn’t have to be complex. A few actions can make a big difference:

  • Use air purifiers to filter out dust, allergens, and particulate matter.
  • Maintain proper humidity levels to prevent mold growth 
  • Regularly clean and vacuum, especially if you have pets.
  • Inspect your HVAC system to ensure it’s clean and functioning efficiently.

HVAC systems work more efficiently when the indoor air quality is good. Clogged air filters or poor airflow caused by pollutants can force HVAC units to work harder, leading to higher energy consumption. Maintaining clean air quality improves the efficiency of these systems, which can lead to lower energy bills.

Mold and Moisture Issues
