Improving Indoor Air Quality
Improving Indoor Air Quality
Often times the concentration of VOC's are higher indoors than outdoors...2 to 5 times higher! This is due to lack of ventilation. The best way to reduce the exposure to these harmful chemicals is to follow label instructions carefully. It may be beneficial to install additional exhaust fans, replace the ventilation system or upgrade the Heating & AC System. Often times it's just a matter of bringing in some broad leaf indoor plants to help filter out the toxins.
Some other causes of poor air quality and allergens in the office and ways to reduce the harmful affects:
Leaky Vacuums - change to HEPA filters
Fabric-covered Couches and Chairs - replace with leather or micro fiber
Forced-air Duct System - clean ducts; implement radiant heated floors
Carpet Floors - switch to wood or tile floors
Smoking - provide a place for smokers, outdoors and away from ventilation systems
Your customers will enjoy the experience of your indoor space and your employees will appreciate the care you've shown them. They may even want to stay at work longer.

Have you ever said, "I need to go outside for some fresh air"? Or, how about the smell of new carpet, fresh paint, or experienced that "new car" smell. These odors are the off-gassing of VOC's, or Volatile Organic Compounds. VOC's come from certain solids and liquids containing chemicals which have adverse affects such as cleaning supplies, building materials, glues and adhesives.

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
