In the modern era, we spend a significant portion of our lives indoors, whether it's at home, work, or in various public spaces. It is within these indoor environments that we expect safety, comfort, and well-being. However, there is an invisible factor that profoundly impacts our lives—indoor air quality (IAQ). This book sets out on a compelling exploration of IAQ, delving into the intricacies of what constitutes clean and healthy air within our indoor spaces. It aims to empower readers with knowledge, insights, and practical solutions to enhance their understanding and take meaningful action to improve the air they breathe. Throughout these pages, we will unravel the mysteries surrounding IAQ, dissecting the sources, pollutants, and potential health effects that can arise from poor air quality. We will explore the science behind IAQ, helping you comprehend the complex interplay between indoor environments and the air we inhale. With a keen focus on education, we will navigate the different aspects of IAQ assessment, providing guidance on how to identify potential risks and understand measurement techniques. We will shed light on the significance of monitoring and how it can shape our decisions and actions to ensure the air we breathe is healthy and safe. While exploring the book, you will encounter various chapters dedicated to the common indoor pollutants that plague our indoor spaces. We will uncover the secrets behind volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter, mold, radon, and other pollutants that can silently compromise our health and well-being. Moreover, we will examine their sources and equip you with the tools to mitigate and control them. Our journey will continue by focusing on the strategies and technologies available to improve IAQ. From effective ventilation systems to advanced air filtration and purification methods, we will explore a myriad of solutions that can transform the quality of the air we breathe. We will delve into design considerations, sustainability practices, and regulations that shape the IAQ landscape. As we progress through the book, we will highlight the importance of awareness and education in cultivating a culture of healthy indoor environments. We will emphasize the role each individual can play in advocating for clean air and fostering positive change. This book is a call to action, urging you to be proactive in safeguarding your health and the well-being of those around you. It is an invitation to embark on a journey that unveils the importance of breathing clean air and empowers you to take control of your indoor environment. Together, let us embrace the mission of breathing clean, cultivating indoor spaces that prioritize health, and advocating for improved IAQ on a global scale. By the end of this book, it is our hope that you will be armed with the knowledge, motivation, and determination to champion the cause of indoor air quality for a healthier future. So, take a deep breath, join us on this enlightening journey, and let us embark on a quest to breathe clean. Sincerely, Charles Nehme
