Indoor pollutants that release gases of particals into the air are the primary cause of poor indoor air quality. Inadequate ventilation can increase indoor pollutant levels by not bringing in enough outdoor air to dilute emissions from indoor sources and by not carrying indoor air pollutants out of the home. High temperatures and humidity levels create a habitat that incourages the growth of pollutants.
