Monitoring indoor air quality can have significant benefits for both asthma sufferers and older adults.
For asthma sufferers, exposure to certain pollutants, such as dust or mold, can trigger asthma attacks. Indoor air quality monitoring can help to identify and eliminate sources of these pollutants, which can help to reduce the frequency and severity of asthma attacks. Additionally, real-time monitoring can also help asthma sufferers to quickly identify and address any changes in air quality, which can help to prevent an asthma attack from occurring.
For older adults, poor indoor air quality can lead to a variety of health problems, such as respiratory infections, allergies and heart disease. Older adults may also be more sensitive to pollutants due to age-related changes in their immune and respiratory systems. Indoor air quality monitoring can help to identify and eliminate sources of pollutants, which can help to reduce the risk of health problems for older adults. Additionally, real-time monitoring can also help older adults to quickly identify and address any changes in air quality, which can help to prevent health problems from occurring.
Overall, monitoring indoor air quality can help to improve the health and well-being of both asthma sufferers and older adults by reducing exposure to harmful pollutants.
