Finding F-1664

“In addition, we found that natural ventilation (window), compared to those with a central ventilation system, was associated with a 3.00 (95%CI: −2.79 to 8.80) μg/m3 increase in indoor PM2.5 levels.”

Structure

Factor
Particulate matter (PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀)
Intervention
Natural ventilation
Setting
home, US
Study design
field study of homes during a wildland-urban interface fire: indoor and outdoor fine particles measured in each home and related to the use of portable HEPA air cleaners, the ventilation type, the age of the building and the room volume (class 4)
Effect
difference 3.00 (-2.79–8.80)
Caveat
the interval crosses zero; during a wildland-urban interface fire, opening windows brings the smoke in
