According to the EPA about 90% of our lives are spent indoors, including the office and in your own Hodgenville home. The majority of our exposure to impurities happens indoors, with indoor air being two-to-five times more polluted than outdoor air. That is why your home’s indoor air quality is essential for good health. So what are some indicators that you may need to improve your indoor air quality?
How You Feel
There are a number of physical symptoms of poor indoor air quality in Hodgenville, like: fatigue, watery eyes, headaches, coughing, sneezing and a number of others. The symptoms can often be mistaken for other ailments such as allergies or a cold. If your symptoms seem to go away when you’re outside of the house, it might be an indoor air quality matter.
