Thuthukisa umoya wasendlini ekhaya lakho

Ikhwalithi yomoya ephansi yasendlini ekhaya ixhunyaniswa nemiphumela yezempilo kubantu bayo yonke iminyaka. Imiphumela ehlobene yezempilo yengane ehlobene ihlanganisa izinkinga zokuphefumula, izifo zesifuba, isisindo sokuzalwa esiphansi, ukuzalwa ngaphambi kwesikhathi, ukushaywa umoya, ukungezwani komzimba,i-eczema, isikhumba prizinkinga, ukuxakeka ngokweqile, ukunganaki, ubunzima bokulala, amehlo abuhlungu nokungenzi kahle esikoleni.

Ngesikhathi sokuvalwa, abaningi bethu kungenzeka ukuthi bachithe isikhathi esiningi besendlini, ngakho-ke indawo yasendlini ibaluleke kakhulu. Kubalulekile ukuthi sithathe izinyathelo zokunciphisa ukuchayeka kwethu kokungcola futhi kuphoqelekile ukuthi sithuthukise ulwazi ukuze sinikeze umphakathi amandla okwenza kanjalo.

I-Indoor Air Quality Working Party inamathiphu amathathu aphezulu:

• GWEMA ukuletha ukungcola endlini
• SUSA imithombo yokungcola endlini
• YEHLISA ukuchayeka, nokusebenzisa, imikhiqizo engcolisayo nemisebenzi yasendlini

Gwema ukuletha ukungcola endlini

Indlela ephumelela kakhulu yokugwema izinga eliphansi lomoya wasendlini ukugwema ukungcola okufika esikhaleni.

Ukupheka

• Gwema ukushisa ukudla.
• Uma ushintsha izinto zikagesi, kunganciphisa i-NO2 ukukhetha izinto ezisebenza ngogesi kunegesi.
• Amanye amahhavini amasha anemisebenzi 'yokuzihlanza'; zama ukuhlala ngaphandle ekhishini uma usebenzisa lo msebenzi.

Umswakama

• Umswakama ophezulu uxhumene nokuswakama nokukhunta.
• Zomisa izingubo ngaphandle uma kungenzeka.
• Uma uyisiqashi esinomswakama noma isikhunta esiqhubekayo ekhaya lakho, thintana nomnikazi wendawo noma umnyango wezempilo wendawo.
• Uma ungumnikazi wendlu yakho, thola ukuthi yini ebangela noma yikuphi ukuswakama futhi ulungise izinkinga.

Ukubhema nokufutha

• Ungabhemi noma uvape, noma uvumele abanye ukuthi babheme noma bavape, ekhaya lakho.
• Ugwayi we-elekthronikhi kanye ne-vaping kungabangela imiphumela yezempilo ecasulayo njengokukhwehlela nokuphefumula, ikakhulukazi ezinganeni eziphethwe yisifuba somoya. Lapho i-nicotine iyisithako esishisayo, kunemiphumela eyaziwayo eyingozi empilweni yokuchayeka. Nakuba imiphumela yesikhathi eside yezempilo ingaqiniseki, kungaba okunengqondo ukuthatha indlela yokuzivikela futhi ugweme ukuchaya izingane ku-vaping kanye nogwayi we-e-ugwayi endlini.

Ukuvutha

• Gwema imisebenzi ehlanganisa ukushisa endlini, efana nokushisa amakhandlela noma impepho, noma ukushisa izinkuni noma amalahle okushisa, uma unenye indlela yokushisisa.

Imithombo yangaphandle

• Lawula imithombo yangaphandle, isibonelo, ungasebenzisi imililo evuthayo futhi ubike imililo eyisicefe emkhandlwini wendawo.
• Gwema ukusebenzisa ukungena komoya ngaphandle kokuhlunga ngezikhathi lapho umoya ongaphandle ungcolile, isibonelo gcina amafasitela evaliwe ngesikhathi sokugijima futhi uwavule ngezikhathi ezahlukene zosuku.
