How to Tell If You Need to Improve Your Indoor Air Quality

According to the EPA nearly 90% of our lives are spent indoors, including the office and within your own Macon home. The majority of our exposure to pollutants occurs indoors, with indoor air being two-to-five times more polluted than outdoor air. That is why your home’s indoor air quality is crucial for good health. So what are some indicators that you may need to boost your indoor air quality?

How You Feel

There are quite a few physical symptoms of poor indoor air quality in Macon, for example: fatigue, watery eyes, headaches, coughing, sneezing and a host of others. The symptoms can often be incorrectly identified as other problems such as allergies or a cold. If your symptoms seem to vanish when you’re outside of the house, it might be an indoor air quality matter.

Odors and Damage

Bad indoor air quality doesn’t just affect your health; it might damage the furniture in your home. You might start noticing your walls or ceilings look discolored, your wood furniture warping or your paint chipping. These are all indicators that you might have reduced indoor air quality. There also could be a musty smell that is always around.
