How Indoor Air Quality Affects Your Health

Mold, pollen and pet dander are common pollution sources in your home. Other sources include household cleaners and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

VOCs can be emitted by products in your home, such as building materials, flooring or furniture. They can also be found in some air fresheners and scented candles. Heightened VOCs can result in respiratory irritation, headaches and dizziness, among other symptoms.

Many scientific studies have learned respiratory diseases, asthma and other health problems are connected to bad indoor air quality. Allergies can also be aggravated by indoor air quality issues.

 

10 Signs Your Home has Poor Indoor Air Quality

If your family has conditions that are bad at home and get better when you leave, you may be suffering from indoor pollution. You should also talk to your doctor if you’re concerned about your health.

  1. Ongoing cold or flu symptoms. A sore throat or runny nose that never gets better could be linked to air quality. This is especially true if you feel better when you leave your home.
  2. Watery, itchy or dry eyes. Your eyes are sensitive to indoor pollution and may react by growing dry, itchy or watery.
  3. Fatigue or feeling faint. Taking in chemical pollutants can have an influence on your energy levels.
  4. Constant asthma attacks. Dust, pet dander, smoke and other triggers can be spread through the air or get caught in carpet.
  5. Coughing and sneezing. Allergies or colds can cause these symptoms, but they shouldn’t be worse at home.
  6. Heavy dust despite periodic cleaning. You may need to upgrade your air filter or install a filtration system from Coastal Service Experts.
  7. Humidity problems. Dryness can cause itchy eyes and worsen respiratory symptoms. Too much moisture can cause mold or mildew growth.
  8. Musty scents. Mold or mildew thrives when the humidity in your home is too high.
  9. Hot or cold spots. This can be linked to air quality, especially if your HVAC system is having issues regulating temperature and humidity.
  10. Nausea. This can be a response to the chemicals or pollutants in your home. It can also be a indication of high carbon monoxide levels. Ensure that you have a working carbon monoxide detector in your home.
