While many people are aware of the dangers outdoor air pollution can pose to their health, they may not be as mindful about indoor sources. Indoor pollutants, such as household pollen, have been shown to increase respiratory tract infections in some individuals and compromise general health. Pollen or other irritants can cause conditions like asthma and other breathing disorders, but exposure to too many allergens compromises a person's general health.
Indoor air quality is more important than you think. The Lancet Respiratory Medicine Commission’s 2014 report asserted that air pollution contributed to over 3.5 million household deaths that year. Studies also show that even in the smoggiest cities, the air inside most modern homes is usually at least ten times more polluted than outside! But how can this be? There are many reasons, some of which were discovered only recently. They include invisible assassins like radon and CO2, as well as gas-emitting chemicals such as formaldehyde, which is often used in making carpets, drapery, household cleaners, furniture, and household building materials.
Modern homes are designed to be air-tight for energy efficiency, but this design causes them to trap stale air and odors. This toxic air leads to a variety of health issues, such as eye irritation, sinus congestion, sore throats, headaches, and other respiratory illnesses. One of the first things many homeowners can do is install a high-efficiency whole-house filter, or an AirCare system, that will help cut down on these risks by trapping pollutants such as particles and gases.
Indoor Air Quality is such a serious and prevalent issue that environmentalists have coined a new term to address the problem, IAQ. Today's homeowners need to become more aware of IAQ, how it affects them, and what they can do about this environmental challenge.
