Monitoring Air Quality to Help Protect Employees and Customers in the Work Place from Wildfire Smoke

Wildfires are a major health hazard for local communities not only outside but also on the inside of buildings. Outdoor air pollutants in fact, significantly affect the quality of the air within indoor environments and can contribute to several health effects including eye irritation, sore throat, asthma, and bronchitis.
