Extractions: Chapter 9: INDOOR AIR QUALITY KEY POINTS Solving indoor air quality problems Steps to remove or reduce the source of contaminants: Prohibit smoking indoors or limit smoking to areas that are under negative pressure and exhausted to the outside. Locate fresh air intakes away from polluted areas or exhaust vents. Install separate local ventilation for machines and operations that give off odors and contaminants. Steam clean carpets and partitions, and vacuum again with a high-efficiency particulate air filter vacuum.

While most of the sources of indoor air pollution do not in themselves present a great health risk, the cumulative effects of several sources may cause health problems, particularly in more susceptible individuals such as the very young, elderly, or health-impaired. http://www.epa.gov/iaq/index.html The Summit County Environmental Health Department regularly receives inquiries about radon and mold; however, we do not regulate these common air quality problems.

Extractions: While outdoor air quality and pollution have become issues of concern for many people, the quality of the air we breathe at home or at work has gone largely unnoticed. Many people suffer from illnesses or discomfort that are either caused or aggravated by poor indoor air quality. Boston University believes its students and employees deserve healthful and comfortable work environments, and is dedicated to address problems that may be associated with poor indoor air quality on campus. Indoor air contamination may be a result of different factors. Some common causes of poor indoor air quality concerns are the following: Poor Ventilation As we breathe, we use up available oxygen and replace it with carbon dioxide, which is a simple asphyxiant. A poorly ventilated room, especially a crowded one, sometimes lacks enough proper fresh supply air to keep carbon dioxide concentrations at low levels. This sometimes results in drowsiness or discomfort. Although elevated carbon dioxide levels are generally not dangerous, this type of scenario can make workers uncomfortable or drowsy; Sometimes the air supplied to a room through a buildings air intakes is contaminated. A poorly positioned air intake can draw outdoor pollutants into the building. Exhaust from busses and cars and from neighboring building furnace exhausts often enter ventilation systems this way;

Extractions: Area Sources Group - Indoor Air Pollution Garages and Toxic Vapors Gasoline vapors are toxic. There are two ways which gasoline fuel evaporates from your vehicle: 1) Due to the increase in daily temperatures, the vapor in the fuel expands and leaks from the vehicle if the evaporative controls on the vehicle are not working properly. Evaporation for daily temperature changes occur each day for all vehicles with gasoline fuel in the tank, even when stationary. 2) Evaporation from the fuel delivery system when a hot engine is turned off and the vehicle is stationary. The vapors arise as the heat from the engine and hot exhaust reach the fuel system where fuel is no longer flowing. Older vehicles with carburetors (carburetor float bowls) contribute significantly to evaporated gasoline vapors. Pressure imbalances in houses suck garage vapors (which can include evaporated gasoline vapors) into living spaces through cracks in furnaces, duct work, the garage ceilings and walls, and doors leading into the home. People in the building sciences world call it the ''stack effect.''

Further Reading Bibliography To escape the harsh winter wind, beating rain, or hot summer sun, we seek the refuge of the indoors. Yet how safe is our indoor environment ? Studies performed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have shown that indoor levels of air pollutants may be two to five times higher than outdoor levels. [i] This is particularly striking considering that Minnesotans spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. [ii] We spend so much of our time indoors, it is logical that we would want an indoor environment that is healthy and comfortable. Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) encompasses everything in the indoor setting including air quality, ventilation, thermal comfort, noise and lighting . IEQ is of concern because it affects both our physical and mental health. An estimated 15 to 100 billion dollars of our nations annual medical bills can be attributed to indoor air pollution. [iii] Although people have varying sensitivities to poor indoor air quality , symptoms may include headache, fatigue, sinus congestion, coughing, sneezing, dizziness, nausea, and irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, and skin. Additionally, indoor air pollutants may provoke allergies, asthma, chemical hypersensitivity or building-related illness
