Review of Florida's Indoor Air Quality Programs

Report 96-32, January 1997




Report Summary

  • Although indoor air problems pose public health risks, present state action appears to adequately address the largest known risks.
  • The effects of other common indoor air pollutants cannot be accurately estimated due to the difficulties in identifying the specific causes of building-related illness.
  • Florida's current programs for addressing indoor air pollution are a cost-effective response to these public health concerns. However, should the risks associated with indoor air contaminants increase, legislative actions may be necessary.
