■ Impact of Indoor Air Quality on Wellbeing ■

01 Pollutants

02 Health Impacts

Particulate Matter (PM2.5 andPM10):

• Ventilate with cross-ventilation and exhaust fans.

• Use HEPA filters in air purifiers or HVAC systems.

• Clean surfaces regularly with damp cloths.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs):

• Choose low-VOC products.

• Utilize air purifying indoor plants.

Formaldehyde:

• Ensure adequate ventilation.

• Choose formaldehyde-free materials.

Carbon Monoxide (CO):

• Maintain appliances for best performance

• Pollution Source Control

• Increase indoor ventilation

• Install CO2 detectors

  
  

Biological Pollutants (Mold,Bacteria, Viruses):

• Use dehumidifiers

• Clean moldy surfaces

• Improve ventilation in damp areas

• Maintain air conditioning systems

Air Filtration Systems

• HEPA Filters: These high-efficiency particulate filters capture tiny particles like dust, pollen, pet dander.  

• Activated Carbon Filters: These filters absorb harmful gases and odors.  

• UV-C Light Air Purifiers: These use ultraviolet light to kill bacteria and viruses

  
  

Ventilation Systems

• Mechanical Ventilation: This system brings in fresh outdoor air and removes indoor pollutants.  

• Exhaust Fans: These remove moisture and pollutants from bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms

  
  

Smart Technology

• Air Quality Monitors: These devices measure various pollutants like PM2.5, VOCs, and Carbon Dioxide.

• Smart Air Purifiers: These devices can be controlled remotely and adjust on real-time air quality data

The WELL v2 ‘Air’ concept aims to ensure high levels of indoor air quality across the lifecycle of a building.

Building materials and products may contain VOCs (content), the emission rate can alsovary depending on the environmental conditions. When considering products,check their eco-labels, seals or VOC certificates.

*Preconditions are mandatory, Optimizations are optional.
