Cooking, cleaning, occupancy, ventilation, HVAC operation, outdoor air, weather, humidity, and building materials can all influence indoor conditions. Objective measurement helps make those changes visible.
Explore the ResearchWHY INDOOR AIR MATTERS
EPA reports that Americans spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. Conditions can change throughout the day as people occupy spaces, cook, clean, ventilate, and operate HVAC systems.
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
An official overview of indoor environmental conditions, common pollutant sources, ventilation, moisture, and exposure.
EPA reports that Americans spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors and that indoor conditions are influenced by activities, building operation, and outdoor air.
World Health Organization
A global overview of indoor and outdoor air pollution and the importance of reducing unnecessary exposure.
WHO identifies particulate matter and several gases among pollutants of public-health concern.
AIRBORNE PARTICLES
Fine airborne particles can come from everyday activities, dust movement, combustion, and outdoor air. Because many particles are not visible, measurement can provide useful context before and after a defined activity or service.
Read EPA guidance →WHY MEASURE CHANGE?
Ventilation, occupancy, weather, HVAC operation, and indoor activities all influence environmental observations. Rather than relying on assumptions, measurement provides a clearer record of what was observed and when.
