Having a good Indoor Air Quality program in place is becoming more and more a necessity in modern times simply because of new construction methods employed to construct buildings. Buildings, including residences, are tighter in construction thereby decreasing infiltration and exfiltration. Even with mechanical codes which require so many changes of air per hour, depending on the building and its use and occupancy, building managers need to implement indoor air quality programs to prevent health issues among the occupants of their buildings. Good health not only helps people feel better but also makes them more productive.

In today’s world our homes and buildings have become vastly more efficient in terms of preventing heating or cooling loss or gain. Unfortunately these buildings have become so airtight that they actually prevent the indoor air contaminants from escaping. While the entire world has been making concentrated efforts to clean up our outdoor environment, recent studies showed that indoor air is often found to be 60 to 90% more pollutant than outdoor air. The Environmental Protection Agency has recently listed poor indoor air quality as a major health concern, and OSHA is currently moving forward with new compliance legislation.



Studies have shown that poor indoor air quality can cause headaches, sneezing, asthma, breathing problems, allergies, skin irritations, mental fatigue, body aches, eye, nose and throat irritation, respiratory problems, cancer, legionnaires disease, and more. Poor indoor air quality also causes premature replacement of HVAC equipment and furnishings, increased utility cost, musty or stale odors.
