Does my home have an indoor air quality problem?

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), most homes in the United States suffer from poor indoor air quality. In fact, the EPA estimates that the average home’s indoor air quality is two to six times worse than outdoor air.

People exposed to indoor air pollution may experience one or more of the following symptoms:

  • Dryness and irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, and skin
  • Headache
  • Fatigue
  • Shortness of breath
  • Hypersensitivity and allergies
  • Sinus congestion
  • Coughing and sneezing
  • Dizziness
  • Nausea

If you are experiencing any of the symptoms above, note when your condition is the worst and if it gets better when you leave your home. Do others in your home also have similar symptoms? If so, your home may have an indoor air pollution problem.

Did you know?

Dirty air filters are the main reason air conditioners don't work as well as they should. Every time the air conditioner runs, it pulls air through its filter. The purpose of the filter is to catch impurities in the air. With those particles stuck to the filter the path for air gets blocked to a greater and greater degree, meaning there's less air through the air conditioner and thus less cooling. It also means the air conditioner works harder and uses more power.
