According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), The definition of indoor air quality is the quality of the air in a home, school, office, or other building environments.
We hear all the time about pollution and outdoor air quality, but there is very little emphasis on indoor air quality, which for most people is where the majority of their time is spent.
Why is your indoor air quality so important? Here’s what the EPA says about the importance of indoor air quality.
- Americans, on average, spend approximately 90% of their time indoors, where the concentrations of some pollutants are often 2 to 5 times higher than typical outdoor concentrations.
- People who are often most susceptible to the adverse effects of pollution (e.g., you children, older adults, people with cardiovascular or respiratory disease) tend to spend even more time indoors.
- Indoor concentrations of some pollutants have increased in recent decades due to such factors as energy-efficient building construction (when it lacks sufficient mechanical ventilation to ensure adequate air exchange) and increased use of synthetic building materials, furnishings, personal care products, pesticides, and household cleaners.
In summary, your indoor air quality is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT when it comes to your health and your family’s health.
What can you do to help improve your indoor air quality?
- Change your air filter every 1-3 months
- Go through your household cleaning products and throw out ones that have harmful chemicals in them (here’s a resource we found about toxins lurking in your cleaning products: https://experiencelife.com/article/8-hidden-toxins-whats-lurking-in-your-cleaning-products/)
