1. The USEPA has reported that home air can have 100 times more chemicals inside than outside.

 

2. The USEPA has also reported that adults and kids now spend most of their time indoors (90%).

 

3. The CDC has reported that 20+ million adults have asthma, and the National Asthma Survey has reported that asthma is the most prevalent chronic disease among children. These numbers continue to increase annually, suggesting that the indoor environment plays a contributing role in this trend.

 

4. Mold growth can be present within the home and be hidden behind walls or underneath carpeting or flooring.

 

5. The use of Formaldehyde is prevalent in certain building materials and the concentration of this known cancer-causing agent can be many times the safe level.
