Some of the additional factors that affect indoor air quality include radon, lead, asbestos,
pesticides, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, cleaning products, off-gassing from carpets,
furniture and paint, air fresheners, fragrances, and a wide variety of other toxins and
chemicals.
Indoor air pollutants cause significant damage to health globally. Poor indoor air quality
affects people from all walks of life. Affected persons include both genders, all ages, those
unborn and soon-to-be-born, homemakers, stay-at-home moms, teachers and school
children, veterans, retirees, disabled individuals, workers of all levels and skills, farmers,
professionals, owners of businesses large and small, and all degrees of affluence. In short,
anyone who spends time indoors is at risk.

| Global Indoor Health Network |
The Global Indoor Health Network is a 501(c)(3)
organization dedicated to providing education and
awareness of the health effects of mold and other
indoor contaminants. Our worldwide network of
scientists, physicians, researchers, indoor air quality
experts, attorneys, teachers, injured workers,
advocates and others are working together to
promote healthy indoor environments in homes,
schools and businesses. We have united to share
our collective knowledge, expertise and life
experiences to advance the understanding and
awareness of this very important public health issue.
Our website provides personal stories, statistics and
information on the health effects, along with an
extensive list of research papers, government reports
and scientific studies.
There are many factors that affect indoor air quality.
Our primary focus is on the contaminants in
water-damaged buildings. These contaminants
include molds, mycotoxins, volatile organic
compounds, microbial particulates, proteins,
galactomannans, endotoxins and bacteria. These
water-damage events can occur in connection with
floods, hurricanes, construction defects, roof leaks,
foundation problems, plumbing leaks, appliance
leaks, condensation, or as a result of buildings
materials that can become wet during storage,
transportation and construction.
