@TheSeege @KiwiNikki , what I like about the article is that they highlight how surprisingly bad the quality of #IndoorAir is generally, even in places that you thought might be great (gyms, e.g.), not just from a Covid standpoint.
Of course the best protection against airborne disease right now are respirators. There is no gaming Covid. There are only layers of protection.
I'm hoping improved ventilation in all buildings will lead to a reduction in circulating viruses.

Does anyone know about ventilation in cars? The CO2 in my work vehicle was reaching near 3000ppm despite having the fan constant (and was not set to recirculate). Definitely showing pattern I just don’t understand and seems like engineered cycle. #CO2 #CO2Monitor #CO2Monitoring #AirQuality #IndoorAir #IndoorAirQuality #Engineering

Seattle Space Needle is another #CovidSafeBusiness! This should be a model for all public spaces for #IAQ #IndoorAir #CleanAir

This iconic building has upgraded:

-#Ventilation: air changes over at least 6x per hour and in some spaces up to 30x per hour".

-#Filtration: Using HEPA and Merv-13 filtration

-#UVC light behind-the-scenes to clean the air as it changes over through the HVAC system.

⭐️ “Improvements in ventilation & filtration should happen in schools & other buildings

⭐️ “As the saying goes, we wouldn’t accept a glass full of dirty water, and we should no longer accept a lungful of dirty air.”

“If the pandemic was whispering to us about air quality, the wildfires are screaming to us about it.” Great OpEd by Linsey Marr.

⭐️Long-term exposure to air pollution ➡️ incr risk of heart disease, cancer, worsened asthma symptoms, etc.

⭐️ Portable air filtration units can remove viruses, smoke particles, pollutants, common allergens like dust, pollen, mold, etc. 1/2

So, air purifiers work.

I noticed something in all of my friend's Billy Joel posts and just confirmed it. SoFi Stadium has Far-UVC lighting installed to sanitize the air. I'd probably have gone if this was being advertised. Of course, I'd still be in a mask if I did, but I would definitely feel far-safer there. Perhaps I'll catch a Rams game this year.

Passive houses apparently great for indoor air quality.
More proof that combating climate change and pandemics are linked.

We've thought about it, and some of us have resolutions to share. Do you have any clean air resolutions this year?

Have you done this calculation for your home yet?

Welcome to our 🧵on clean indoor air! Each Monday we’ll post threads about indoor air quality (IAQ) and its significance to health. We’ll cover the composition of air, how to measure harmful elements, and how to improve unhealthy indoor air. 1/6

#IAQ #IndoorAir #AirQuality

Hoping to get some input from #HVAC #Engineers and other experts: in a school built in the 70s that originally had no walls and is now divided up into classrooms via a mixture of full height, 3/4 height, and half height walls and dividers...would getting walls & doors be helpful or harmful from a #CleanAir standpoint? HVAC has #MERV13 filters, & the building has a handful of #HEPA air purifiers, but very few windows.
#Covid #IndoorAir #Schools

Glad to see that the White House is finally paying attention to indoor air quality https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2022-03/508-cleanairbuildings_factsheet_v5_508.pdf
Now I wish my local school system would do the same. Look at this CO2 level plot from during a school day. The early spikes are dining areas, where masking isn’t even an option. The later high plateau is in classrooms. #iaq #IndoorAir

#iaq #indoorair folks, I'm hoping you can help. These two CO2 meters are giving me very different readings. I'm inclined to trust the Aranet4 and assume the other is crap. But is there a way for me to check, without buying a third meter?.

Today we've opened window four and received a tip about portable air cleaners. #IAQ #ventilation #indoorair #MaskUp

The third open window of our Air-Vent Calendar reminds everyone to keep an eye on the humidity in their homes. #IAQ #ventilation #indoorair #MaskUp https://t.co/irO6zS1xBw
