Indoor Air Quality - A Few Sample Culprits
Molds are part of the natural environment. Molds reproduce by means of tiny spores; the spores are invisible to the naked eye and float through outdoor and indoor air. Mold may begin growing indoors when mold spores land on surfaces that are wet. There are many types of mold, including toxic Black Mold. Another example is Radon, which can't be smelled or tasted, but it may be a problem in your home. Radon is estimated to cause many thousands of deaths each year. That's because when you breathe air containing radon, you can get lung cancer. In fact, the Surgeon General has warned that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States today.
Allergies, Cold, Flu - Or Could it Be Worse?
It is estimated that humans spend as much as 90% of their time indoors. Above all, we expect our indoor environment to be free of effects that will damage or compromise our health or the health of others around us. Modern buildings are constructed with a "pot luck" mixture of materials that can contain chemicals that adversely affect our health. With a range of chemicals, molds, radon, carbon monoxide and other invisible toxins many symptoms of serious indoor air contamination are easily dismissed as a common cold, in turn doing long term harm.
The next time your feeling ill, know for sure that with an indoor air quality control inspection that the cause is a harmless cold, rather than a silent mixture of hidden toxins circulating through the air. Contact IEE to schedule an inspection today! |
