Inā paha ʻoe e hana ana ma kahi mamao, e aʻo ana ma ka home a i ʻole e noho mālie wale ana i ka wā e anuanu ai ke aniau, ʻo ka hoʻolilo ʻana i ka manawa hou ma kou home ʻo ia hoʻi ua loaʻa iā ʻoe ka manawa e hoʻokokoke aku ai a pilikino me kona mau ʻano like ʻole. A e noʻonoʻo paha ʻoe, "He aha kēlā ʻala?" a i ʻole, "No ke aha wau e hoʻomaka ai e ʻū i ka wā e hana ana au i loko o koʻu lumi keu i hoʻololi ʻia i ke keʻena?"
ʻO kahi mea hiki: ʻO ka maikaʻi o ka ea o loko o kou home (IAQ) hiki ke emi ma mua o ka maikaʻi loa.
Hiki i ka ʻōpala, radon, pet dander, uahi paka a me ke kalapona monoxide ke hoʻopilikia maikaʻi ʻole i kou olakino. "Hoʻolilo mākou i ka hapa nui o ko mākou manawa i loko o ka hale, no laila ua like ka nui o ka ea me ka mea ma waho," wahi a Albert Rizzo, he pulmonologist ma Newark, Del., a he luna lapaʻau nui no kaʻAhahui Mama ʻAmelika.
ʻO Radon, kahi kinoea ʻala ʻole a kala ʻole, ʻo ia ke kumu nui ʻelua o ka maʻi kanesa māmā ma hope o ka puhipaka. ʻO ke kalapona monoxide, inā waiho ʻole ʻia, hiki ke make. ʻO nā hui organik Volatile (VOC), i hoʻopuka ʻia e nā mea kūkulu hale a me nā huahana hale, hiki ke hoʻonui i nā kūlana hanu. Hiki i nā mea particulate ʻē aʻe ke kumu o ka pōkole o ka hanu, ka paʻa ʻana o ka umauma a i ʻole ka wheezing. Ua pili pū ʻia me ka hoʻonui ʻia o ka pilikia o nā hanana cardiological, wahi a Jonathan Parsons, he pulmonologist ma ke Kulanui ʻo Ohio State.Ke Kikowaena Lapaʻau ʻo WexnerMe kēia mau pōʻino olakino a pau e peʻe ana, he aha ka mea hiki i nā mea nona ka hale ke hana e hōʻoia i ka palekana o ka ea a puni lākou?
Inā ʻoe e kūʻai ana i hale, e ʻike ʻia paha kekahi mau pilikia IAQ, ʻoiai ʻo radon, i ka wā o ka nānā ʻana i ka hale i hōʻoia ʻia ma mua o ke kūʻai mua ʻana. Ma waho aʻe o kēlā, ʻaʻole ʻōlelo aʻo ʻo Parsons i nā mea maʻi e hoʻāʻo ʻia ka maikaʻi o ka ea o ko lākou home me ke kumu ʻole. "I koʻu ʻike lapaʻau, ʻike ʻia ka hapa nui o nā mea hoʻonāukiuki ma ka nānā ʻana i ka mōʻaukala lapaʻau o ka mea maʻi," wahi āna. "He ʻoiaʻiʻo ka maikaʻi ʻole o ka ea, akā ʻike maopopo ʻia ka hapa nui o nā pilikia: nā holoholona, kahi kapuahi kuni wahie, ka ʻōpala ma ka paia, nā mea āu e ʻike ai. Inā kūʻai ʻoe a hana hou paha a loaʻa kahi pilikia ʻōpala nui, a laila pono ʻoe e mālama iā ia, akā he maʻalahi ke hoʻokele ponoʻī i kahi wahi o ka ʻōpala i loko o kāu ʻauʻau a i ʻole ma ke kāpeti."
I ka hapanui o nā hihia, ʻaʻole hoʻi e ʻōlelo ka Environmental Protection Agency i ka hoʻāʻo ʻana i ka IAQ home maʻamau. "He kū hoʻokahi kēlā me kēia wahi o loko, no laila ʻaʻohe hoʻāʻo hoʻokahi e hiki ke ana i nā ʻano āpau o ka IAQ i loko o kou home," i kākau ai kahi ʻōlelo no ka ʻoihana ma kahi leka uila. "Eia kekahi, ʻaʻohe palena EPA a i ʻole nā palena pekelala ʻē aʻe i hoʻonohonoho ʻia no ka maikaʻi o ka ea o loko a i ʻole ka hapa nui o nā mea haumia o loko; no laila, ʻaʻohe kūlana pekelala e hoʻohālikelike i nā hopena o ka laʻana."
Akā inā ʻoe e ʻū ana, pōkole ka hanu, ʻūlū a i ʻole he ʻeha poʻo mau, pono paha ʻoe e lilo i mākaʻi. "Ke noi aku nei au i nā mea nona ka hale e mālama i kahi puke moʻolelo i kēlā me kēia lā," wahi a Jay Stake, pelekikena o kaʻAhahui Kūlana Ea o loko(IAQA). "Manaʻo ʻoe he maikaʻi ʻole kou ke komo ʻana i loko o ka lumi kuke, akā maikaʻi i loko o ke keʻena? Kōkua kēia i ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i ka pilikia a hiki ke mālama iā ʻoe i ke kālā ma mua o ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi loiloi piha o ka maikaʻi o ka ea i loko."
Ua ʻae ʻo Rizzo. "E makaʻala. Aia kekahi mea a wahi paha e hoʻonui ai i kou mau hōʻailona a ʻoi aku paha? E nīnau iā ʻoe iho, 'He aha ka mea i loli i loko o koʻu home? Aia kekahi pōʻino wai a i ʻole kahi kāpeti hou? Ua hoʻololi anei au i nā mea holoi a i ʻole nā huahana hoʻomaʻemaʻe?' ʻO kahi koho koʻikoʻi: E haʻalele i kou home no kekahi mau pule a ʻike inā e hoʻomaikaʻi ana kāu mau hōʻailona, "wahi āna.
