How Officials, Spectators, and Parents Can Help

Officials, Spectators, and Parents

How can you help?

Parents, spectators, and officials spend countless hours in natatoriums supporting athletes and attending events. By understanding the importance of indoor air quality and sharing that knowledge with others, you can help raise awareness and encourage healthier aquatic facilities.

At IAQ Mission, we make it easy to get involved. Download and share our Indoor Pool IAQ White Paper with your local clubs, schools, and facility operators. Help spread the message by sharing our ready-to-use social media posts, and subscribe to our newsletter to stay informed about the latest research, educational resources, and IAQ initiatives.

Together, we can build awareness, promote best practices, and help create healthier indoor environments for everyone who visits, works, and competes in aquatic facilities.
