Outdoor pollutant sources

Seattle has plenty of outdoor pollution from congested traffic, I-5 truck traffic, trains, airports, and industrial sources.  Also, ETS from adjoinging apartments can be problem.

Did you see any homes in your study that may have been impacted by such sources?  These impacts may have confounded some of your results.

Did you try any measures to mitigate the impact of such sources?

TIA,
