FAQs
How often should I have my home’s indoor air quality tested?
Under normal circumstances, test your home’s indoor air quality every two years. However, if you have recently renovated your home, moved to a new home, or have a household member who has developed chronic allergies or respiratory issues, test more frequently.
Can indoor plants improve indoor air quality?
Yes, indoor plants can improve air quality. They absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen; some plants can also remove toxins. However, plants do not replace proper ventilation and regular air quality inspections.
What common sources of indoor air pollution should I be aware of?
Indoor air pollution can come from tobacco smoke, household cleaning agents, pesticides, gases like radon and carbon monoxide, building materials like asbestos or lead, and biological sources like mold, pet dander, and pollen.
