7 Common Indoor Air Pollutants

The first step to keeping your home and family safe from indoor air pollution is learning more about the pollutants/contaminants. Here are the 7 common indoor air pollutants:

• Mold

  Molds are types of fungi that grow indoors and outdoors. Some types of mold are harmless, while others are dangerous.

• Radon

  Radon is an odorless, colorless gas that is found everywhere at low levels. It is made naturally as the uranium in the earth breaks down.

• Carbon Monoxide (CO)

  Carbon monoxide is an odorless, invisible gas. It’s produced by the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels.

• Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2)

  Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) is a common oxide of nitrogen. It is a toxic and corrosive gas.
  Please note that nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is different from nitrous oxide (N2O), an oxide of nitrogen that is medically useful when administered by trained professionals, such as dentists.

• Secondhand Smoke

  Secondhand smoke, also called environmental tobacco smoke, comes from incompletely burned tobacco products. According to the Environmental Assistance and Protection Department of Forsyth County, secondhand smoke contains over 4,700 chemical ingredients.
