Indoor pollutant levels can be 10 to 100 times higher than outdoor levels, contributing to 20% of all illnesses, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and National Institute for Occupational Safety & Health (NIOSH). With over 80% of our time spent indoors, prioritizing indoor air quality is essential.
Managing indoor air quality can be complex due to the interplay of various factors, including building design, ventilation systems, occupant behaviors, and external influences.
Air conditioning systems are often a hidden source of contaminants that circulate throughout buildings, deteriorating air quality and posing significant health risks.

Challenges to Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)
Pollutants
Building materials, furnishings, cleaning products, and daily activities like smoking release harmful pollutants like volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and chemicals into the air.
Ventilation
Inadequate ventilation traps pollutants indoors, leading to higher concentrations potentially affecting people’s health.
Moisture and Humidity
Excess moisture promotes mold and bacteria growth, releasing harmful spores and toxins. Keeping humidity balanced prevents these issues.
Occupant Factors
Occupant activities introduce pollutants into the air, such as shoe dirt, hair fall, perfumes, and smoking odors.
Benefits of improved IAQ
Productivity Gains
Studies estimate that these factors can lead to annual productivity gains of between $10 billion to $30 billion. By creating a healthier and more comfortable indoor environment, employees can experience increased concentration, reduced absenteeism, and improved overall well-being, leading to higher productivity levels.
Energy Savings
Studies suggest that a 1% increase in productivity can offset a building’s entire energy costs. Additionally, clean and efficient HVAC systems not only enhance air quality but can also cut energy consumption by over 30%.
Return on Investment and Cost Savings
IAQ improvement programs offer an average ROI of 78.56% (NADCA). These programs reduce energy costs, boost productivity, and lower healthcare expenses, significantly enhancing your bottom line and driving substantial savings.
Enhanced Health and Reduced Absenteeism
Improved IAQ reduces asthma symptoms and boosts productivity. Asthma sufferers miss an average of 9.3% of work hours weekly, as per NIH. Cleaner air improves respiratory health, cognition, and overall well-being.
Why your business needs improved IAQ?
Regular indoor air quality testing and solutions are crucial because dirty ducts recirculate dust, dander, and chemicals, worsening allergies and respiratory issues. Building materials and finishes can release VOCs, while radon gas from the ground poses serious health risks.
EPSCO cleans ducts and maintains buildings to remove these contaminants, ensuring a healthier and more comfortable environment.
