According to the EPA almost 90% of our lives are spent indoors, including the office and within your own Menomonie and western Wisconsin home. A lot of our exposure to impurities takes place indoors, with indoor air being two-to-five times more dirty than outdoor air. That is why your home’s indoor air quality is vital for great health. So what are some signs that you may need to boost your indoor air quality?
How You Feel
There are a variety of physical symptoms of poor indoor air quality in Menomonie and western Wisconsin, for example: fatigue, watery eyes, headaches, coughing, sneezing and a host of others. The symptoms can often be misidentified as other ailments such as allergies or a cold. If your symptoms seem to vanish when you’re outside of the house, it may be an indoor air quality issue.
