Unlike pollution such as thick smoke or visible dust that glares you in the eye; most cases of poor indoor air quality go unnoticed. Outdoor allergens, pollen, mold spores, cooking smoke etc, re-circulating in closed spaces can lead to unhealthy air, which in turn, can trigger allergies, cause respiratory problems and other ailments and exacerbate asthma. While obvious signs such as foul odor or frequent illnesses or accumulation of dust indicate a problem with your indoor air quality, it’s wise to get professional opinion from an expert who can test the indoor air and measure the level of contamination in it.
