A classroom should be a safe place to learn and grow, but poor indoor air quality (IAQ) is making it harder for students and teachers to stay healthy. The air indoors is full of chemicals, dust, germs, viruses, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other harmful particulate matter. These particles spread germs and illnesses around when not eliminated which impacts the overall health and safety of occupants resulting in increased absenteeism. A new survey of teachers in the U.S. shows the urgent need for better air quality testing and monitoring in schools.
Mastering indoor air quality is vital for the well-being of people who live, work, learn, and play inside four walls. With the right tools, schools can create safer, healthier learning environments.
