Why Is Indoor Air Quality Important?
Indoor air quality is important because it can directly affect our health. According to the World Health Organization, “Both short and long term exposure to air pollutants have been associated with health impacts.” Breathing air that is free of pollutants can reduce the risk of several health issues, including respiratory illnesses, heart disease, and cancer.
Health Issues Associated With Indoor Air Pollution
- Respiratory complications
- Coughing
- Headaches
- Asthma complications
- Cancer
- Dry, itchy skin
- Allergic reactions
- Fatigue
What Steps Can I Take to Improve My Indoor Air Quality?
There are a number of things you can do to improve the indoor air quality in your Gresham home. Some of the most effective steps include:
- Source control: This involves eliminating or reducing the sources of indoor air pollution, such as gas stoves, fireplaces, and tobacco smoke. According to the EPA “Usually the most effective way to improve indoor air quality is to “eliminate individual sources of pollution or to reduce their emissions.”
- Air purification: Air purifiers can remove pollutants from the air, such as dust, pollen, and smoke.
- Ventilation: Bringing fresh air into your home can help to dilute and remove indoor pollutants.
- Humidification: Adding humidity to the air can help to reduce dust and allergens, and improve respiratory health.
