Indoor Air
Do you know what your children are breathing?
Were going to tell you something that may raise an eyebrow. In fact, you may not even believe it. (I sure didn't at first!) Here are three quick questions to see if this applies to you...
Do you find your home humid in the summer and dry in the winter? "Humid" can mean you feel clammy even after you dry off from a shower. Dry air means you sometimes get a static "shock" when you walk over carpet in the winter.
Do you ever wake with a stuffy nose, headache, or have allergies? Now the most important...
Do you think any of this is normal?
I hope not. The American College of Allergists says over 50% of all allergies are related to poor indoor air quality. This means that dust mites, pollen, molds, pet dander, insect debris, smoke particulates (from you or your homes previous owners) plus the materials used to build your home could be polluting your lungs.
Problems are as minor as the above ailments or as serious as asthma and respiratory infections can result. Children and the elderly are at the most risk.
Kind of scary isn't it? I mean, the quality of the air in our home is the exact same as the quality of air we breathe. It's funny; you wouldn't drink pond water, no matter how clear. But we breathe our air without even thinking about it, and wonder why we have "unexplained" illnesses.
Polluted ductwork can spew contaminants into the air you breathe 6 times per hour.
