The Danger of Aerosol Air Fresheners in Workout Spaces
During intense exercise, human ventilation rates jump from 6 liters per minute to over 50 liters per minute. Members breathe deeply through their mouths, bypassing natural nasal filtration. When automated aerosol fresheners spray clouds of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and petroleum propellants, members inhale these irritants directly into their bronchi, triggering coughs and asthmatic responses. Commercial fitness facilities require clean, IFRA-compliant cold-air nebulization.
