According to the EPA about 90% of our lives are spent indoors, including the office and inside your own Auburn home. Most of our exposure to pollutants occurs indoors, with indoor air being two-to-five times more dirty than outdoor air. That is why your home’s indoor air quality is vital for great health. So what are some signals that you may need to boost your indoor air quality?
How You Feel
There are a number of physical symptoms of reduced indoor air quality in Auburn, for example: fatigue, watery eyes, headaches, coughing, sneezing and a host of others. The symptoms can often be mistaken for other problems such as allergies or a cold. If your symptoms seem to vanish when you’re outside of the house, it could be an indoor air quality problem.
Odors and Damage
Poor indoor air quality doesn’t just impact your health; it may damage the furniture in your home. You may start noticing your walls or ceilings look tarnished, your wood furniture warping or your paint chipping. These are all things that show that you might have bad indoor air quality. There also could be a musty smell that doesn’t seem to go away.
