The WSU Energy Program provides education and technical support for schools, homes and commercial buildings in the Pacific Northwest. The goal of these programs is to improve the indoor environment for occupants in terms of quality of life, health, comfort, productivity and achievement, as well as provide for the durability, sustainability and energy efficiency of the structures.
The objectives are to increase awareness of asthma, identification of asthma triggers, and practical control strategies and interventions for trigger control.
Activities include workshops, electronic newsletters, on-site assessments, development of practical and quantifiable benchmarks for indoor environments using instrumentation and good practice.
