Indoor air quality in Canadian homes : policy, regulatory and consumer education issues / Peter Russell, Bruce M. Small. : NH15-725/1984E-PDF
"There are a number of reasons to question whether regulation should be the primary means of dealing with indoor air quality problems. The nature of hypersensitivity to indoor pollutant exposures is such that any practical form of regulation may not address the population that is experiencing the greatest difficulty from indoor pollution. The primary conclusion is tnat a broad look at various limited forms of regulation and of alternatives to regulation should be undertaken. For example, consumer, industry and professional education represent important components of an overall solution and could in some cases be significantly more effective than regulation in reducing residential indoor air pollution and improving health. Many indoor air quality problems are not technically difficult to solve. Encouraging technical innovation in housing design and better communication of early warnings could forestall proliferation of construction methods that cause indoor air quality problems"--Abstract, p.
