The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of carpet on indoor air quality (IAQ) as perceived by practicing interior designers. A mail survey of 440 Rocky Mountain area designers was conducted. Findings revealed that designers perceived that carpet affected both IAQ and occupants’ health, and that glues/adhesives andfinishing chemicals were the carpet items most considered to affect IAQ. A minority of respondents felt that they had adequate IAQ information or actively searched for IAQ information. Statistically signijkant relationships existed between IAQ perceptions of carpet in general, IAQ information, and IAQ perceptions of specific carpet items
