HOME IMPROVEMENT Does Cooking Make Your Home Sick?

Poor ventilation can make kitchen air resemble that of a smog-filled city. “When we cook most of us aren’t thinking that we are fundamentally changing the air quality inside our home, but making ameal can generate a lot of particles,” said Allen. Joe Allen, a professor at Harvard, heads the Harvard School’s Healthy Buildings program. The Environmental Protection Agency defines particulate matter as matter containing microscopic solids or liquid droplets that are so small, they can be inhaled and cause serious health problems. “In your kitchen you can generate levels that look like a bad outdoor-air-pollution day in Beijing or Los Angeles, and depending on your type of ventilation or if you don’t have an exhaust over your stove, those levels can get high and stay high. “The science says you have to have an exhaust hood and it has to be exhausted to the outside,” he added, “otherwise, you are just collecting it and redistributing it somewhere else but not out of the house.” THE COMPLETE HANDYMAN HOME IMPROVEMENTS L HOME IMPROVEMENTS Serving Monmouth, Mercer and Middlesex County “No JobToo Big Or Too Small” Serving Monmouth, Mercer and Middlesex County “No JobToo Big Or Too Small” All types of repairs and installations, Finished Basements, Bathrooms, Kitchens, etc. All types of repairs and installations, Finished Basements, Bathrooms, Kitchens, etc. YOU LOOKED!
