We spend much of our time indoors, as much as 21 hours each day!

Did you know that common products and practices can be a source of air pollution? Also, naturally occurring humidity, mould, and radon also affect indoor air quality.

Indoor air pollution can cause serious health problems for some people, especially for people with lung diseases such as asthma or COPD, and increase the risk of a young child developing asthma.

Common sources of indoor air pollution include:

• Cigarette smoking – no one should smoke indoors.
• Mould or mildew
• High humidity
• Household cleaners
• Household chemicals
• Scented products
• Pesticides
• Radon gas
• Wood smoke
