Indoor air pollution is a stealthy invader that can compromise the health and comfort of your home without leaving obvious signs. The basement, if unmonitored and unmaintained, can become a breeding ground for pollutants like mold spores, dust mites, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

 

These pollutants can easily migrate to other areas of the home through the stack effect, a phenomenon where air moves through your house from bottom to top. Although we often focus on outdoor air quality, indoor air pollution is equally, if not more, impactful on our health, leading to respiratory issues, allergies, and other health concerns.

 

By maintaining a well-sealed and dry basement, you mitigate these risks and contribute to a healthier living environment for everyone in your household.
