Improving Your Wake County Air Quality Since 2002

One of the most effective ways to keep your family healthy at home is with good air quality. Keeping your home clean is a great start, but because air quality is not something you can necessarily see or smell, it is often overlooked. Your indoor air can suffer during the cold winter months as there is often no flow of fresh air from outside, so it’s especially important to prepare your home as seasons change.

What Are Some Common Symptoms of Poor Indoor Air Quality?

Some common symptoms associated with poor indoor air quality include:

• Respiratory issues: Persistent coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and throat irritation are common symptoms. People with pre-existing respiratory conditions like asthma may experience exacerbated symptoms.
• Allergies: Frequent sneezing, nasal congestion, runny nose, itchy or watery eyes, and skin irritation are common allergic reactions caused by airborne allergens such as dust mites, pet dander, pollen, or mold spores.
• Headaches: Indoor air pollutants, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), can trigger headaches or migraines in sensitive individuals.
• Fatigue and dizziness: Poor air quality can lead to feelings of fatigue, tiredness, and general malaise. In some cases, it may also cause dizziness or lightheadedness.
• Irritated throat and eyes: Exposure to airborne irritants like smoke, dust, or chemicals can cause sore throat, irritated eyes, or excessive tearing.
• Increased asthma or allergy symptoms: Individuals with asthma or allergies may experience worsened symptoms, increased frequency of attacks, or heightened sensitivity to triggers due to poor indoor air quality.
