The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that people spend 90% of their time indoors, but that indoor air quality can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air. Indoor air pollution can threaten the health — and the lives — of everyone in your family.

The single most effective way to keep the air in your home healthy is to keep things out of your home that cause air pollution, including cigarette smoke and excess moisture and chemicals, and ventilate to pull dangerous pollutants out of the house.

The second most important strategy is to air seal your home. A leaky building envelope and ducts can pull in dirt, dust, particles, and mold.

Easy tips to improve Indoor Air Quality:
• Run bathroom and kitchen exhaust fans to ventilate moisture in the air
• Install a carbon monoxide detector
• Clean your A/C and dehumidifier
• If you have asbestos, hire a qualified company to properly remove it ASAP
• Install an air filtration system
• Avoid toxic products to cut down on VOCs
• Test your home for radon

Did you know? Up to 30% of the air in your home comes from your crawlspace.
