 
Building occupants often complain of general health symptoms
potentially related to poor indoor air quality that include
cough or respiratory related illness, headache, fatigue, dry
eyes/throat and nausea. These health symptoms may also stem from
personal health conditions or stress. Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)
assessments assist in identifying true building-related air
quality problems. These problems may be caused by inadequate
fresh air or make-up in the building.
There are many other
potential indoor sources of contaminants such as new material
off-gassing, bacterial or fungal growth due to water intrusion,
animal or rodent feces contamination, improper or inadequate
ventilation for the type of use of the structure or the items
used, stored or manufactured in the structure.
