What You Can Do
There are many things we can do collectively to help improve both indoor and outdoor air quality. You can also take a look at our Summer and Winter suggestions.
Indoor Air Quality is often described as being healthier than outdoor air quality. On some days this might be true, but there are still issues to be aware of regrading indoor air quality.
Sometimes during winter months, a layer of cold air is confined within the Wasatch Front valleys by the surrounding mountains. Above the cold, dense layer is warm air. This inversion acts much like a lid, trapping pollutants within the cold air.
Proper insulation, storm windows, and weatherizing are your first steps in winter home energy conservation. These measures reduce the amount of heat necessary to keep your home warm. The less wood burned, the less pollution generated.
