Think Air Pollution Isn't a Problem Inside? Guess Again!
There are many sources of indoor air pollution. These include bacteria,
mold, and mildew brought inside by everyday activities such as going in and out, opening windows, or using your
heating and air conditioning systems.
Smoke, pet waste and dander, formaldehyde from carpets, furniture, and drapes, are all contributors to an unhealthy
indoor air environment. Even daily cleaning doesn't solve the problem, as the contaminants are constantly being
reintroduced. To be effective, you must deal with this around the clock.
You and your family are at risk.
Those who are most susceptible to indoor air pollution are the ones who
are home the most: children, pregnant women, the elderly, and those with chronic illnesses.

Air pollution contributes to lung disease... Over the last decade, the death rate for lung disease has risen faster
than for almost any other major disease. (Source: American Lung
Association)
Indoor air, including the air in your home or apartment, can be even more polluted than the outdoor air of a big
city. Many of today's newer homes with weather-tight construction and inadequate ventilation actually have higher
levels of unhealthy air than some older, draftier homes. (Source:

What do the independent experts say?
A rule of thumb states that a pollutant released indoors in 1000 times
more likely to reach people's lungs than a pollutant released outdoors. (Source:

As dangerous as polluted outdoor air can be to health, indoor air pollution actually poses a greater health risk
on a global level... [home] improvements sometimes make houses relatively airtight, reducing ventilation and raising
indoor pollutant levels. (Source: World Resources Institute)
Research indicates that people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. Thus, for many people, the
risks to health may be greater due to exposure to air pollution indoors than outdoors. (Source: Environmental Protection Agency)
