Indoor air quality refers to the quality of the air inside your home or business, and how it affects the health and comfort of those breathing it. Poor indoor air quality can cause both short-term and long-term health problems, and in some cases those health problems don’t even materialize until long after exposure.

Indoor air pollution can be caused by fuel-burning combustion appliances, tobacco products, building materials such as asbestos, newly-installed materials such as carpeting, other flooring, or upholstery, and products for household cleaning, personal care, and hobbies. Inadequate ventilation makes the pollution worse, as does humidity and high temperatures, which we are especially concerned about in the Houston area.
