MY HOUSE IS KILLING ME
Home inspector Jeffrey May helps people identify what’s
causing their otherwise inexplicable health problems. In My
House Is Killing Me!, he explains how air conditioning, finished
and unfinished basements, and other home features affect air
quality, and offers a step-by-step approach to identifying,
controlling, and often eliminating the sources of indoor pollutants
and allergens. 338 pp.
