Abstract
Supplement to Air Quality in Homes in England, BRE’s national representative survey of air pollutants in 876 homes in England. The survey was designed to extend and refine knowledge of baseline levels of indoor pollutants in homes, to identify any regional differences in pollutant levels and to permit a detailed analysis of factors associated with high indoor pollutant concentrations. Describes the sampling methods, summarises the levels of pollutants found, and reports on the results of the statistical analysis of factors influencing indoor pollutant concentrations. Commissioned and funded by the Chemicals and Biotechnology Division of the DETR, now DEFRA.
