Importance of Improving Air Quality in Your Home

Did you know that environmental health risks are more than an “outdoor” problem? According to Manitoba Health’s Healthy Indoor Environments – air quality, chemicals, noise, and pests are also present in indoor environments, including your home. This is why duct cleaning in Winnipeg is very important.

There are a number of factors, gasses, and chemicals that can affect the air quality inside your home: mold and moisture; pests; household cleaning chemicals; smoking; carbon monoxide and other harmful gases including radon; as well as building materials like asbestos or lead paint. 

Manitoba, for example, has had higher radon values in buildings than national averages. Health Canada has estimated that about 7 per cent of Canadians and about 19 per cent of Manitobans are living in homes above the radon guideline. (Source: Cross-Canada Survey of Radon Concentrations in Homes: Final Report. March 2012).

Each year numerous people die, are hospitalized, or become ill as a result of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Installing CO detectors in your home, and ensuring proper maintenance for fuel burning equipment such as furnaces, water heater/boilers, stoves, and other appliances that run on fuels such as wood, oil, propane or natural gas can help prevent poisoning. 

Molds and fungi spores contain allergens and irritants that can be harmful to your family’s health. People living in homes where mold grows are more likely to suffer from coughing, wheezing, and headaches. People with existing health conditions such as asthma may be at greater risk.
