Indoor pollution can be up to 100 times worse than the outside Air Quality Index. The EPA estimates that one-third of all commercial buildings have poor air quality - and that there's over 50 million cases of occupational chronic respiratory disease in the U.S. each year. Seventeen (17) million Americans suffer from Asthma alone.
Every year indoor ozone, fumes, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide smog, and HVAC systems fouled with microbial growth, bacteria and fungi, severely impact public health. An alarmed EPA and NIOSH - after studying many indoor air quality lab reports - have created more comprehensive Indoor Air Quality Guidelines.
