Can a House Cleaning Service Improve the Quality of the Air in Your Home?
Did you know that millions of people worldwide are made ill by bad indoor air quality each year? Actually, about 60% of homes are unsafe to occupy because of the quality of indoor air. Even the plane air quality is usually better than the one in your house or office building. A good house cleaning service can certainly improve the situation.
Indoor pollution is a top environmental concern!
According to EPA (The Environmental Protection Agency), indoor air quality is a top environmental risk to public health. Pollution indoors is usually 2 to 5 times worse than outdoors. Despite this striking number, nearly ¼ of all Americans show no concern about the quality of the air they breathe when they are indoors.
Startling facts about indoor pollutants.
Nearly 10% of American homeowners have never changed the filter of their HVAC system and have no intentions of doing it. Particulate matter in indoor pollution can inflame the airways and lungs, which impairs immune response, reduces the blood’s oxygen carrying capacity, and therefore increases allergic reactions.
Babies crawling on the floor of your home inhale the pollution equivalent of four cigarettes a day, the result of out-gassing from carpets, mildew, dust mites, fungi, and molds. Next time you want to save money on booking a professional dirt extraction carpet cleaning, think again. A thorough carpet or rug cleaning service can save the health of your children.
Household waste also contributes to the poor indoor air quality in your home. About 2 million people worldwide die prematurely because of this.
