LACK OF VENTILATION IN THE HOME CAN CONTRIBUTE TO HIGH VOC LEVELS AND POOR INDOOR AIR QUALITY.

THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF ALLERGY, ASTHMA & IMMUNOLOGY RECOMMENDS KEEPING HUMIDITY LEVELS BELOW 50% IN THE HOME WITH A DEHUMIDIFIER TO REDUCE DUST MITES.

EPA reports health problems associated with poor indoor air quality include eye irritation, headaches and allergies.*
