Over the last few years, air quality has received more attention than ever before. Because of COVID-19, everyone is wondering who and what we’re sharing the air with. But it’s not just the viral particles that we need to be concerned about. There are other sources of pollution in our homes and workspaces that are not always obvious and can be difficult to spot.

Take our clean air quiz to see if you need air purification. Or keep reading for more information.

The Hidden Pollutants in Your Home and Workspace

Everyday products such as cleaners, room fresheners, and beauty items emit dangerous VOCs and chemicals into the environment. Furniture, flooring, heating and cooling systems, even some appliances can release contaminants into the air, too. That’s not to mention the toxins produced in old buildings from mold, plaster, and peeling paint. And these are just a few of the many hidden pollutants lurking inside homes and workspaces.

The Effects of Pollution Are Not Always Easy to Spot

For people with respiratory issues such as COPD, asthma, or allergies, the effects of poor air quality can be easy to recognize. But for many others, it is not always clear whether pollutants in our environment are impacting our health. We don’t always attribute sleep issues, fatigue, anxiety, weight gain, regular headaches, or skin irritations to contaminants in the air. But it’s a possibility.
