According to the EPA, indoor pollution in residential buildings is caused by particles and gasses released into the air from many different sources. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) found in paint, home cleaning products, and wood finishes mix with the carbon emissions from your HVAC system to cause poor indoor air quality.
Other common sources of indoor air pollution include:
Tobacco products
Fuel-burning combustion appliances
Excess moisture
Newly installed carpet, flooring, or upholstery
Even outdoor sources, such as pesticides or radon may cause poor indoor air quality in Columbus.
