Basic repairs and maintenance provide great opportunities to make your home healthier. Learn more our Healthy HousingTM concept and what you can do to correct moisture and air issues in your home
Moisture and Mold
Too much moisture in the air can lead to mold, and has been linked to respiratory problems for home occupants. CMHC provides useful information about humidity and moisture problems and outlines a number of different solutions to ensure satisfactory humidity levels in the home.
Indoor Air Quality
The need for clean air in our homes should not be underestimated. Canadians spend an average of 90% of their time inside; and our homes contain many substances that may be hazardous to our health. Indoor air pollutants range from minor irritants such as dust and animal dander, to major irritants such as molds and chemical vapours that may be emitted from building materials and furnishings. It is important to be aware of how air contaminants can affect our health and to adopt corrective measures that will improve indoor air quality in our homes.
Healthy Housing™
Healthy Housing™ is a CMHC vision of housing that promotes the health of its occupants while considering the environment and preserving our natural resources. Healthy Housing™ is not about building new high-tech houses. It`s about making Healthy Housing™ features available and affordable to everyone, for new or older homes in the city, country or suburbs.
