First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether installing energy recovery ventilators or portable air cleaners in low-income homes can reduce indoor pollutants and mold, and improve asthma control. Researchers will monitor 80 households over one year, measuring lung function, asthma symptoms, and quality of life. The goal is to find a practical, non-medication way to help people with asthma breathe better at home.
