The effects of odors and chemical vapors on your family’s comfort and health depend on the types and concentrations of them within your home, as well as your individual sensitivity. Generally, the more odors and chemical vapors in the home, the more likely you are to suffer an adverse reaction, such as dizziness or shortness of breath. This is especially true if you have asthma or some other respiratory ailment.
