Although we spend most of our time indoors, the focus tends to be on outdoor air quality. Design that is sensitive to air quality issues can have a major impact on our health and wellbeing. Exposure to indoor pollutants can pose a significant health risk. It has been linked to a range of health problems. Unhealthy indoor air can cause problems such as headache, fatigue, coughing, sneezing, dizziness, and eye, nose, throat and skin irritation. Some health effects from indoor air pollutants may be experienced soon after exposure. Others may not be felt until many years later. CSIRO estimates that occupants of new homes may be exposed to many times the maximum allowable limits of some indoor air pollutants. Exposure to these levels can continue for many weeks after occupying a new home.

Mold (fungi) is present everywhere —indoors and outdoors. There are more than 100,000 species of mold. At least 1,000 species of mold are common in the U.S. Some of the most commonly found are species of Cladosporium, Penicillium, and Aspergillus. Mold is most likely to grow where there is water or dampness, as in bathrooms and basements.

Department Contact and Feedback Information What are molds? Molds are types of fungi. They grow in the natural environment. Tiny particles of molds are found everywhere in indoor and outdoor air. In nature, molds help break down dead materials, and can be found growing on soil, foods, plants and other items. Molds are also very common in buildings and homes. Mold needs moisture to grow. Indoors, mold growth can be found where humidity levels are high, like basements and showers. Molds produce microscopic cells called “spores” that are spread easily through the air. Spores can also be spread by water and insects. Live spores act like seeds, forming new mold colonies when they find the right conditions. Back to top What makes mold grow?

Business Indoor air quality Thursday, Jan 17, 2008 - 04:21 PM BY Consumer Reports Email to a Friend Printer Friendly The New York Times, as well as Newsweek magazine, carry ads for the Venta-Airwasher. It claims it's both a humidifier and a purifier. Consumer Reports just checked out two sizes. One costs $200 and the other costs $400. The devices claim they "can trap even the very finest particles, as small as 10 microns." But Consumer Reports points out that many of the particles that bother people with respiratory problems, such as dust and smoke, are a lot smaller. Particles that are 10 microns are just too heavy to stay suspended for very long. Consumer Reports tested the Venta-Airwasher the same way it tests all air purifiers, in a sealed chamber. A measured amount of fine dust is put into the room, followed by cigarette smoke. A particle counter keeps track of the number of particles in the air that are three microns or smaller. The Venta-Airwasher didn't do anything to clean the air of very small particles. The number of dust and smoke particles stayed the same over the course of 90 minutes. So tests show it's not a good air purifier. How about a humidifier? The tests show the Venta-Airwasher does add moisture, but it doesn't have a control to let you set the level of humidity. Without humidity controls, the air can get very moist and can eventually cause mold and mildew to grow. A regular humidifier costs a lot less. Consumer Reports says get one with a control that lets you set the amount of humidity you want.

It has been long-suspected that those beautiful, live Christmas trees are the cause of many a yuletide sneeze. But is an artificial tree just as maddening to allergy and asthma sufferers as a fresh one? The answer may surprise you! So is there an advantage to putting up an artificial tree as opposed to a live one? Tips for live trees: If possible, you may want to go to a tree farm where you can cut your tree yourself. This guarantees that the tree is fresh and has not had the opportunity begin experiencing mold growth. After bringing the tree home, have a non-allergic family member or friend hose the it down outside. Allow the tree to completely dry before bringing it indoors. If the temperatures are below freezing, you may want to bring the tree into the garage to ensure that it dries. If you find that you typically have a lot of allergy or asthma problems during the holidays, you may want to abbreviate the amount of time that you have your tree up. If you put it up on Christmas Eve and take it down 3 to 4 days later, you will probably notice that your symptoms are not going to be as severe in the long term. If only having your Christmas tree for a days makes you feel a little bit like the Grinch, consider putting your tree up on the front porch and then bring it inside on Christmas eve. You can decorate it with lights and some sturdier ornaments, then finish the festivities when you bring it indoors, adding the delicate and most treasured ornaments last.

Contact Customer Service Guidelines For Selecting An Indoor Air Quality Consultant Preface Introduction Investigating the Problem In-House Determine the Scope of the Problem ... Additional Resources Preface This brochure was developed to help you find a professional who can competently investigate and resolve indoor air quality problems. It is targeted to building owners, facility managers, and commercial building tenants, environmental health and safety (EHS) coordinators, and others who are responsible for indoor air quality in the workplace. Although this brochure was written for commercial buildings, some of these concepts can be applied to some residential buildings. Introduction Indoor air quality problems have been around for centuries, but our scientific understanding of the indoor environment is just beginning. Because of this, the knowledge and skills of individuals providing indoor environmental quality services vary tremendously. There are no federal regulations covering professional indoor air services (except where it involves asbestos, lead or radon). Some professional organizations, such as the American Board of Industrial Hygiene (ABIH) offer certifications in indoor environmental quality, but these are not required by law. So, if you have a suspected indoor air quality problem that you cannot readily understand and remedy, it can be difficult to decide where to turn. This guide was written to help you: Investigate the problem in-house
