- 4:57different
- 4:58route
- 4:58because

- 5:00trap
- 5:01humidity
- 5:01in

- 5:03Because
- 5:04if
- 5:04we
- 5:04get
- 5:04above
- 5:0560%
- 5:05down
- 5:06there,

- 5:08to
- 5:08have
- 5:08a
- 5:08massive,
- 5:09expensive
- 5:10cleanup

- 5:11We

- 5:12that.
- 5:12So

- 5:32bare
- 5:32minimum.
- 5:33Now,
- 5:33that

- 35:02that
- 35:02indoor
- 35:03air
- 35:03quality
- 35:03is
- 35:03worse
- 35:05than
- 35:05the

- 41:02And
- 41:02if
- 41:02you

- 41:23when
- 41:23it
