Johnson County Indoor Air
With tighter building construction in recent years, the quality of indoor air in Johsnson County has declined dramatically.
The air circulating in the duct work of the average home can be concentrated with contaminants, including molds, bacteria, viruses, and dust mites. We fill our lungs us to 20,000 times each day. Over time, these contaminants can cause inflammation of the mucous membranes, upper respiratory problems, asthmatic conditions, headaches, and flu-like symptoms, especially among children.
According to the National Center for Health Statistics, 2001 National Health Interview Study, over 7.6 million children (5-17 years) and over 12.7 million young adults (18-44 years) suffer from asthma. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ranked indoor air pollution among the top five environmental dangers to the public.
