Colorado Clean Indoor Act – Considerations for Improving Indoor Air Pollution With Odor Blocking Paint

The general assembly has passed new legislation updating the existing Clean Indoor Air Act. The new provisions ban smoking indoors in all public places. The ban includes e-cigarettes and vaping, which means you can no longer use them in public places.

The intention is to control vaping among Colorado teenagers whose vaping statistics are above the national average, according to the Department of Public Health and Environment.

There must be specific considerations in your Odor Management Plan to be able to protect occupants from the danger of smoke and odor from smoking.

Initially, people couldn’t smoke within 15-feet of public building entrances. However, the new legislation increases this distance to 25-feet. The change is in relation to the new data from a survey on public health in Colorado schools. The survey findings state that secondhand smoking is prevalent in public entryways.

The new legislation removes all exemptions for vaping or smoking in airport designated areas. Besides, under the new law, motels and hotels can no longer designate rooms allowed for smoking. The legislation aims to limit exposure to secondhand nicotine and smoke.

The law ensures Coloradans no longer have to suffer from secondhand smoke outside entryways to buildings. The new law protects service industry employees and customers from heavy metals, nicotine, and cancer-causing chemicals. Nicotine from vaping devices and aerosols are a major air pollutant in public spaces.

What does the new legislation mean? All businesses are now vape-free and no smoking areas. Plus, assisted living facilities are also no-smoking zones.

However, there are places where smoking is still permitted, like marijuana tasting rooms. Nevertheless, the business must have a license for consumption, and only people over 21 years are allowed to enter the establishment.
