- So, exactly what is indoor air pollution?
- While they may not have asthma, allergies, or chemical sensitivities, they may have other life-draining health complaints related to unhealthy homes.
- Air-quality testing can be helpful to understand what is wrong with your air, but since there are hundreds or thousands of possible pollutants, and testing for them all is impossible, a test result may be misleading.
- There is a growing body of evidence that poor indoor air quality and other indoor pollutants are negatively affecting us all. Yet it is still difficult to define precisely what makes some materials unhealthy.
- Consider these thought-provoking gems from Advisory Board Member, Mariel Wolfson.
- We get a lot of questions about what we call “simplistic solutions to complex situations.” For example, most people want an easy way to solve the problem of poor indoor air quality. Well, we’d like that too and, in some cases, there are relatively simple solutions. But in many cases, the solution isn’t easy.
- That is the debate HHI has been having with a few industry leaders from the home ventilation sector.
- According to the book, The Nature Principle: “The home nature-restoration market is growing. A Canadian company called Nedlaw Living Walls, Inc., produces indoor "living walls" of ficus, hibiscus, orchids and other plants.
- While it is difficult to determine the dollar cost of poor indoor air quality (IAQ), insurance-industry observers agree that the costs may be unrecognized—and ascribed instead to more conventional medical conditions such as respiratory ailments, allergies, and asthma. One report on insurance costs found that “there is strong awareness and growing concern over the ‘silent crisis’ of IAQ and its potential to cause large industry losses.”
- Three misconceptions about tight houses are: 1. They have poor IAQ, 2.They have mold and moisture problems, and 3. Chimneys don't work well in them.
- It’s often a good idea to consult a specialist for help in designing a system for your particular needs.
- Since our home is a source of many potential allergens, the answer to this question is important.
- Improving and cleaning your air is an often forgotten task of spring cleaning.
- A tremendous number of water cleaning and purifying strategies and devices are now available to improve the quality of your home’s water.
- Many "green" products are healthy, but many aren’t - so be careful of green claims.
- HHI made this statement back in 2000.
- Focusing on more than traditional ways to remove VOCs and allergens in the air can lead to better prevention and treatment of allergies and asthma.
- First of all, we’re now building houses tighter for greater energy efficiency, but without mechanical ventilation systems. And second, we’re filling these tighter houses with synthetic, man-made building materials, furnishings, and cleaning products...
- The easiest way to test for formaldehyde is to use a passive monitor.
- An alternative to higher-priced solid wood furniture, but low-VOC and free of formaldehyde.
