 Continuous
media attention given to outdoor air pollution diverts our attention
to the fact that today we spend more than 90% of our lives indoors
and that our indoor air quality can be as much as 10 times worse
than the air outdoors. Allergies, work related absenteeism,
respiratory ailments in children under five and in extreme circumstances,
lung and heart problems are all health related problems that
can be attributed to poor indoor air quality. Everything from
pet hair, pollen, fungi and dust mites can be responsible for
all sorts of health issues that cause needless suffering for
many individuals.
Think of air pollution and you usually think of factories and
freeways, not bedrooms and family rooms. The real danger isn't
from stepping outside, it's from sleeping, eating and just plain
living in your own home. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
warns that indoor air is commonly two to five times, even ten
to twenty times or more polluted than the air outside. Even
more alarming, there's evidence that more than half of all illnesses
are caused or aggravated by poor air quality from airtight buildings
and homes. Daily indoor use of cleaners, aerosols, sprays, harmful
chemicals, laser printers and photocopiers all contribute to
this modern day Health Hazard.
Humidity control, air handling units (AC/Heating units), dry
soil removal and regular fabric cleaning are all important factors
in maintaining good indoor air quality. FabriZone can advise
both home and business owners on how to improve indoor air quality.
