EPA Indoor Air Quality Schools 7.0.1

Indoor levels of air pollutants can be two to five times higher, and occasionally 100 times higher, than outdoor levels. Almost 56 million people, representing approximately 20% of the U.S. population, spend their days inside elementary and secondary schools. Understanding the impact of poor indoor air quality on the productivity of students and staff is essential. Have you conducted an assessment of your school facilities focusing on IAQ?
