Potential indoor air contaminants in UNR facilities include volatile organic compounds, microbial agents, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, pollen, environmental tobacco smoke, and other agents may cause discomfort or illness.
Adequate ventilation is the driving force behind good indoor air quality.
Indoor air quality cannot be maintained without proper ventilation. The goal of the UNR Indoor Air Quality and Ventilation program is to minimize discomfort and illness related to indoor air contaminants by ensuring that quality and quantity of air exceeds both regulatory requirements and best management practices.
