How to Tell If You Need to Improve Your Indoor Air Quality

According to the EPA almost 90% of our lives are spent indoors, including the office and in your own Wisconsin Rapids home. A lot of our exposure to contaminants occurs indoors, with indoor air being two-to-five times more dirty than outdoor air. That is why your home’s indoor air quality is essential for better health. So what are some signals that you may need to boost your indoor air quality?

How You Feel

There are a number of physical symptoms of bad indoor air quality in Wisconsin Rapids, such as: fatigue, watery eyes, headaches, coughing, sneezing and a host of others. The symptoms can often be misidentified as other ailments such as allergies or a cold. If your symptoms seem to disappear when you’re outside of the house, it might be an indoor air quality matter.

Odors and Damage

Poor indoor air quality doesn’t just play a role in your health; it might damage the items in your home. You may start noticing your walls or ceilings look different, your wood furniture warping or your paint chipping. These are all signs that you could have reduced indoor air quality. There also may be a musty smell that doesn’t seem to go away.
