The human body is the composition of five elements; i.e. Earth or Prithvi; Water or Jal; Fire or Agni; Air or Vayu and then Ether or Akasha. Vayu or Air is one of the basic ingredients of life. Perfect knowledge about air and its importance for human being, indeed very vital for the present generation. If we seriously investigate the cause of pollution, it will be clear before us that the root cause of air pollution is man.

Recent researches have shown that the effect of indoor pollution is more furious compared to outdoor pollution. Report shows that indoor pollution kills millions of people every year. Indoor air pollution is the second biggest killer after high blood pressure in India. Survey says that around 1.3 million people died of indoor air pollution in 2010 whereas death because of outdoor air pollution was around 6.20 lakhs.

This era of technological the advancement is regarded as the greater gift to the mankind. But, in this happiness we forgot to notice that not only outside but; the dangerous effect of technology is found indoor today.

So called intelligent man is quite unaware about the products which are really polluting the internal environment. The list starts from the regular perfume and deodorants to fresh new carpet and different cleaning products. In the wildest of their dream they never thought that the insect killers which kills insect are also silently enters into our body and killing us slowly.

Human beings are unknown about the chlorofluorocarbon coming out from their refrigerator and air conditioners. Smoking becomes the symbol of pride for youngsters which are another reason of killing and even polluting the environment surrounding them.

Other evil products like broken Fluorescent bulbs, different new electronic devices, other plastic products, glues and adhesives, heating equipments (stoves, fire places, heaters and chimneys), paint and strippers, upholstered furniture and pressed wood products, cleaning products, air fresheners, etc. are coming under these category.

Sometime we immediately know its affect. A single exposure invites irritation of eyes, nose and throat which gradually leads to headaches, dizziness and fatigue. These effects are sometime short-lived and can be treated easily. The problem can be vanished with simply eliminating the source of pollutant from nearby areas.

But, in other cases health effects can be noticed after a prolong period. These effects lead to some respiratory diseases, heart diseases, cancer, etc. So it is important to improve the Inside Air Quality (IAQ) in home and indoor areas one spends most of their time.

There are five primary sources of pollutants of indoor air:

(1) New electronics and other plastic products,

(2) Paints and strippers,

(3)Combustion,

(4)  Cleaning products (Many house cleaners, Chemical air fresheners),and

(5) Tobacco smoke

Measures to Control Indoor Pollution: 

1. Install local exhaust ventilation facilities to deal with the concentrated sources.

2. Ensure proper design and construction of the air conditioning and ventilation systems and keep them in normal operation by good maintenance to provide adequate good quality air (together with enough fresh air) at the places where it is needed.

3. Use an air exchanger or an air cleaner at special locations to improve indoor air quality.
