PowerPoint Training Presentation This professionally produced Power Point training presentation comes with 66-slides and colorful illustrations to enhance instruction and student retention. We breathe the air, so we best know what the health effects are from indoor air pollutants and how to control them. Indoor air quality (IAQ) refers to the quality of the air inside buildings as represented by concentrations of pollutants and thermal (temperature and relative humidity) conditions that affect the health, comfort, and performance of occupants. Other factors affecting occupants, such as light and noise, are important indoor environmental quality considerations. Why is Indoor Air Quality Important? Buildings exist to protect people from the elements and to otherwise support human activity. Buildings should not make people sick, cause them discomfort, or otherwise inhibit their ability to perform. How effectively a building functions to support its occupants and how efficiently the building operates to keep costs manageable is a measure of the building's performance. What Causes Indoor Air Quality Problems? Indoor pollution sources that release gases or particles into the air are the primary cause of indoor air quality problems in homes. 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 temperature and humidity levels can also increase concentrations of some pollutants. Specific topics of discussion include: Understanding Indoor Air Quality * Volatile Organic Chemicals * Respirable Particulates (Asbestos, Fiberglass, Pollen, etc.) * Respiratory Products (Water Vapor, Smoke, Carbon Dioxide, etc.) * Molds, Fungi, Bacteria, Viruses * Volatile Chemicals & Mixtures * Sources Outside the Building * Equipment (HVAC and Non-HVAC Systems) * Building Components & Furnishings * Miscellaneous Other Sources * Ventilation to Meet Occupant Needs BONUS: Print-ready Certificates of Completion in PowerPoint.
