Indoor Air Quality, or IAQ, refers to the air quality within and around buildings especially as it relates to personal health. Sometimes, air within homes and buildings can be more polluted than the outdoor air around it. Indoor pollution sources that release gases or particles into the air are the primary cause of air quality problems in homes. Inadequate ventilation can increase indoor pollutant levels by not bringing in enough outdoor air to dilute emissions from indoor sources and by not carrying indoor air pollutants out of the home.
It is important to ventilate properly and to keep secondhand smoke outside of the house,. Also, vacuuming and dusting regularly helps improve the quality of air inside the home. Since a bathroom can be the dampest area of a home, it’s important to ventilate inside bathroom during use and to dry damp surfaces to prevent mold.
