BPI Healthy Housing Principles

Have you ever stepped inside a home and felt an immediate sense of unease? Perhaps the air carried a musty odor or a stale quality that made you wary. In certain cases, the air quality might have been so poor that it caused your eyes to sting or made breathing uncomfortable. Our natural instinct is to leave such environments swiftly, but what about those living in that home? 

 
Achieving the Healthy Housing Principles (HHP) Certificate of Knowledge signifies your understanding of how the various components of a home interact to influence the health of its occupants. Homeowners and renters play vital roles in the home’s ecosystem and are impacted by their adherence to these eight principles:
 
Keep it Clean
Keep it Dry
Keep it Pest Free
Keep it Contaminant Free
Keep it Safe
Keep it Ventilated
Keep it Comfortable
Keep it Maintained
