Construction Materials Used In Old Homes That Make Air Purification Challenging
When it comes to architecture and beauty, many older homes are still a source of inspiration for modern builders. However, despite their appeal, living in many such homes can lead to serious health issues, primarily due to poor quality of air inside them, which even the best modern day air cleaners find challenging to clean. This is primarily because the air pollution within such homes is not caused by the outside air flowing into them. Rather the source of the pollution often lies within the specific construction materials used in these homes. Not many people are aware of the fact that some of the most popular materials used for construction in older homes are a major cause for contaminating the indoor air. This is because they either emit substances that pose a threat to human health or are the breeding grounds for dangerous substances that can easily mix with the air and deteriorate its quality. Discussed below are the four most dangerous construction materials used in older homes that contribute towards increasing the pollution of indoor air.
