Factors affecting indoor air quality

We know that viruses transmit much more effectively where indoor air quality is poor. But many other factors associated with air quality can have detrimental impacts on health and wellbeing

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is produced by respiration and the combustion of carbon-based fuels. Typically, 800ppm CO2 is accepted as an indication of decent ventilation in a room.

Particulate matter (PM 2.5) is less than 2.5 µm in diameter and is small enough to enter deep into the lungs and even the bloodstream. A moderate level is considered 5 µg/m³.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are organic chemicals that may be emitted as gases at normal temperatures and pressures. 300 µg/m³ is considered a moderate amount for VOCs in a room.

Humidity is the concentration of water vapour in the air. Indoor air quality becomes compromised when humidity levels rise above 50% as excessive moisture can create a breeding ground for bacteria.

Temperature tells us how hot or cold a place is. Not only does it affect our well-being, but high temperatures can also affect air quality as the air may be stagnant and not get dispersed well.

FAQs

What are the main indoor air pollutants I should be measuring?

CO2, PM 2.5, VOC, humidity, and temperature are some of the main factors that affect your indoor air quality and should be measured.

Why should I monitor the indoor air quality at my workplace?

Not only does good indoor air quality improve one’s health, but it also has a proven positive impact on productivity, performance, and absenteeism.

Why is it important to have indoor air quality monitoring in a company?

Good indoor air quality can help improve employee performance. A study led by academics at Oxford Brookes University and LCMB Building Performance, and supported by Innovate UK found that employees worked 60% faster when the office had lower CO2 levels.

What should I do if the air quality indoors is bad?

The most important thing to maintain good air quality is ventilation so that the air is not stagnant. By ensuring you collect enough indoor air quality data, you can keep an eye on trends when air quality goes bad and implement relevant measures to fix it.
