after weatherization concentrations of indoor air pollutants from sources inside the home can increase It is possible for weatherization to have a negative impact on indoor air qual-ity because of a decrease in air exchange in the home and resulting increase in moisture and higher concentrations of pollutants in the air
The important sources of indoor CO emissions include unvented kerosene and gas space heaters; leaking chimneys and furnaces; back-drafting from furnaces gas water heaters wood stoves and fireplaces; gas stoves; generators and other gasoline-powered equipment; and tobacco smoke [47]

What are the main indoor air pollutants?
The main indoor air pollutants include NOx, volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds (VOCs), SO2, O3, CO, PM, radon, toxic metals, and microorganisms. The sources and health effects of some common pollutants are listed in Table 1.
What are the opportunities for research on indoor air pollution and cancer?
Opportunities for research on indoor air pollution (due to domestic use of biomass fuels) and cancer include studies of the effect on cancers, other than lung, and studies of genetic factors that modify susceptibility.
Is your kitchen causing indoor air pollution?
Kitchens are full of potential sources of indoor air pollution. Beyond the pollutants released by everyday cleaning products, cooking with gas and electric stoves can introduce a range of pollutants into the air.
What is a geogenic source of indoor air pollution?
So ventilation is important when cooking, cleaning, and disinfecting in a building. A geogenic source of indoor air pollution is radon32. Other classifications Air pollutants come in the form of gasesand finely divided solidand liquidaerosols. Aerosolsare loosely defined as “any solid or liquid particles suspended in the air” (1).
