What Kinds of Factors Affect Your Indoor Air Quality and How Can You Improve It?
Indoor air quality can be affected by many factors such as:
​
- Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from paints, cleaning supplies, and other household products.
- Dust and allergens such as mold, pet dander, and pollen.
- Radon gas that can seep into the home through cracks in the foundation.
- Combustion sources such as gas stoves, fireplaces, and tobacco smoke.
​
To improve indoor air quality, you can:
​
- Ventilate your home regularly to bring in fresh outdoor air.
- Use low-emitting products and materials to reduce VOCs.
- Keep your home clean and dust-free by vacuuming regularly and wiping down surfaces.
- Install air purifiers and use high-efficiency filters in heating and cooling systems.
- Test for and address radon gas levels.
- Avoid smoking indoors and limit the use of fireplaces and gas stoves.
