Episode notes

Andy Pace works with homeowners, builders, and architects around the globe to create healthy and safe living environments for residents. He joins me today for the first part of a two-part series to explain why that is so important and offer advice and tips. He clarifies what makes a home healthy, safe, and non-toxic, what to prioritize when making your home healthier and how to reduce mold and off gassing inside your home.

Two types of off-gassing that occur in a new house:

Cured or applied materials, like paint adhesives and caulking liquids, cure on site and off-gas daily but generally take anywhere from two-and-a-half to four-and-a-half years to completely off-gas.
Odiferous chemicals tend to off-gas much quicker and flush out through the ventilation system.
