Indoor air quality (IAQ) is the quality of the air inside your home. It is important to have good IAQ because you spend a lot of time indoors, and poor IAQ can cause a variety of health problems, including allergies, asthma, and respiratory infections.
There are a number of factors that can contribute to poor Indoor Air Quality, including:
- Dust mites
- Pollen
- Mold
- Pet dander
- Secondhand smoke
- Volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs are chemicals that are released into the air from paints, varnishes, cleaning products, and other household products. They can cause a variety of health problems, including headaches, nausea, and dizziness.
