What is Indoor Air Quality?

Health officials define Indoor Air Quality as the quality of air inside a home or building, particularly as it relates to the comfort, health, and well-being of the people inside.

By cutting down on or eliminating indoor pollutants that are airborne, you can reduce the risk of health problems significantly. The concern with a lot of indoor air pollution is that many of the health implications aren’t always obvious right after exposure. Sometimes, it can take years before serious health issues are noticeable.

As such, residents need to ask themselves: What kinds of hidden toxins are floating around in the air I breathe in my home?

How Important is Indoor Air Quality?

Maintaining healthy breathing conditions in your home (with optimal air quality) is essential for ideal health and overall wellness.

Americans spend most of their time — an estimated 90 percent of it —indoors, whether it be at home, in an office, or in some sort of restaurant, work building, factory, or warehouse. In many of these kinds of places, experts are finding smoke, aerosol, toxic gases, chemicals, and other types of pollution floating around. A lot of this stuff is known to cause allergies, headaches, fatigue, and other breathing problems, in addition to irritation of the eyes, throat, nose, and skin. On a more serious note, the more severe indoor pollutants can cause heart disease, cancer, respiratory problems, and other grave long-term health conditions.

Ultraviolet (UV) means “beyond violet.” Since violet is the highest frequency of visible light, UV light is mostly invisible to the human eye. Most of the UV light on earth comes from the rays of the sun, which causes freckling, sunburn, and raises the risk of skin cancer. Luckily, most of the UV radiation gets absorbed into the atmosphere before it reaches us.

UV light is a type of electromagnetic radiation. UVA (Ultraviolet A) Radiation is used in black lights and tanning beds, for example. You may be familiar with black lights that emit ultraviolet light, causing certain items to fluoresce, or glow in the dark. Limited exposure to these low-power UV lights doesn’t present a hazard to skin or eyes. The other types of UV rays, however, can be very harmful.

3 Ways to Improve Your Indoor Air Quality.

On top of our many effective Indoor Air Quality services and products, we suggest the following 3 tips to promote your home’s air quality:

1.) Always Utilize Proper Ventilation

A lot of indoor air quality problems in modern homes arise out of the kitchen and the bathroom. Always remember, adequate ventilation is important for maintaining optimal indoor air quality.

2.) Make Your Home a “No Smoking” Home

Secondhand smoke from tobacco is the most preventable cause of indoor air pollution, health officials say, and yet it’s among the most harmful.

3.) Keep Rugs and Carpets Clean

Rugs and carpeting actually perform an air quality function similar to an air filter by capturing tiny particles like dust and dirt. Vacuuming once a week can improve the quality of air in your home.
