Indoor air quality From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Indoor air quality IAQ ) is a term referring to the air quality within and around buildings and structures , especially as it relates to the health and comfort of building occupants. IAQ can be affected by microbial contaminants ( mold bacteria ), gases (including carbon monoxide radon volatile organic compounds particulates , or any mass or energy stressor that can induce adverse health conditions. Indoor air is becoming an increasingly more concerning health hazard than outdoor air. Using ventilation to dilute contaminants, filtration, and source control are the primary methods for improving indoor air quality in most buildings. Determination of IAQ involves the collection of air samples, monitoring human exposure to pollutants, collection of samples on building surfaces and computer modelling of air flow inside buildings.

Indoor Air Quality According to the American Lung Association, we typically spend up to 90 percent of our time indoors at home or work. And of that, up to 65 percent is spent inside our homes. Since the energy crisis in the 70's, people have been busy insulating their homes to conserve on energy loss. As homes and businesses become better insulated, this has effected the quality of the indoor air we breathe. People have reported symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, headaches, and drowsiness due to poor quality indoor air. Breathing airborne pollutants often triggers allergy, asthma, and hay fever as well as flu and cold symptoms. At Bourque Mechanical Systems, we offer a complete line of total indoor air quality equipment to improve the air you breathe and reduce the risk of illness at home or business.

Residential Commercial / Industrial Overview Products Air Purification Literature Services Services Air Quality Topics Corrosion Protection Indoor Air Quality Odor Control Documentation Bi-polar Ionization How Bi-polar Ionization Works CONTACT US MFG REPRESENTATIVES Indoor Air Quality Indoor air quality can be eroded by point source contaminant generation in your own office building. Copy machines, printers, laboratories have all been shown to generate point source contaminants which can degrade the quality of the indoor air. ASHRAE Standard 62 prescribes the use of outdoor air for ventilation purposes. Many situations exists, (EPA indicates at least 50% of the time) which cause unacceptable outdoor air being brought in to your facility by your air conditioning system. In industrial areas, it has been shown that air pollution can come from a variety of places such as local industrial and municipal facilities and heavy vehicular traffic. In non-industrial areas such as large cities it is common to find products of in-complete combustion emitted from vehicle exhaust being transferred throughout your facility by the air condition system. These contaminants are volatile organics, aldehydes, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and particulates. Moreover, it is common to see outdoor air intakes in the vicinity of jet engine exhausts in airports and helicopter, diesel trucks, and generators exhaust at hospitals. As these contaminants increase they can cause noxious odors, and irritate your eyes, nose or throat. This causes sensitive people to feel poorly, take sick leave, and in some severe cases result in hospitalization. The symptoms of poor indoor air are non-specific but some common problems include: headache, shortness of breath, sinus congestion, cough, sneezing, skin irritations, dizziness, and nausea. This costs thousands of man hours and millions of dollars every day. This is why a Bioclimatic Air purification system installed at your facility is a great investment.

Indoor pollution sources that release gases or particles into the air are the primary cause of indoor air quality problems in homes. Inadequate ventilation can increase indoor pollutant levels by not bringing in enough outdoor air to dilute emissions from indoor sources and by not carrying indoor air pollutants out of the home. High temperature and humidity levels can also increase concentrations of some pollutants. Pollutant Sources There are many sources of indoor air pollution in any home. These include combustion sources such as oil, gas, kerosene, coal, wood , and tobacco products ; building materials and furnishings as diverse as deteriorated, asbestos -containing insulation, wet or damp carpet, and cabinetry or furniture made of certain

Indoor Air Quality Duct Cleaning Hepa Filters All of us face a variety of risks to our health as we go about our day-to-day lives. Driving in cars, flying in planes, engaging in recreational activities, and being exposed to environmental pollutants all pose varying degrees of risk. Some risks are simply unavoidable. Some we choose to accept because to do otherwise would restrict our ability to lead our lives the way we want. And some are risks we might decide to avoid if we had the opportunity to make informed choices. Indoor air pollution is one risk that you can do something about. In the last several years, a growing body of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities. Other research indicates that people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. Thus, for many people, the risks to health may be greater due to exposure to air pollution indoors than outdoors. In addition, people who may be exposed to indoor air pollutants for the longest periods of time are often those most susceptible to the effects of indoor air pollution. Such groups include the young, the elderly, and the chronically ill, especially those suffering from respiratory or cardiovascular disease.

Also, some specific diseases have been linked to specific air contaminants or indoor environments, like asthma with damp indoor environments. In addition, some exposures, such as asbestos and radon, do not cause immediate symptoms but can lead to cancer after many years. Many factors affect IAQ. These factors include poor ventilation (lack of outside air), problems controlling temperature, high or low humidity, recent remodeling, and other activities in or near a building that can affect the fresh air coming into the building. Sometimes, specific contaminants like dust from construction or renovation, mold, cleaning supplies, pesticides, or other airborne chemicals (including small amounts of chemicals released as a gas over time) may cause poor IAQ.
