The
air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted
than the outdoor air. Our staff assist the public with information
on the sources, health effects, and prevention of indoor air
pollution. While we can provide guidance, private
citizens are responsible for addressing indoor air contamination in
their homes.
Pollution sources in our homes include: combustion sources such as
oil, gas, kerosene, coal, wood, and tobacco products; building
materials and furnishings such as carpets, asbestos- containing
insulation, and cabinetry made of certain pressed wood products;
household cleaning products; biological contaminants such as molds
and animal dander; hobbies; heating and cooling systems; radon;
pesticides; and lead-based paint.
The Arizona Department of Occupational Safety and Health
(ADOSH)
handles workplace complaints at (602) 542-1770.
