Many indoor triggers are causing medical challenges. Dr John teaches us the triggers of asthma and allergies within the home and how to talk about it.

Finally we look at how to mitigate against these common allergens and have better, more productive conversations with your customers on this topic.

Unfortunately, because of the recent need to stay at home, many of us have also been subjected to increased exposure to sources of poor indoor air quality (IAQ).
