HB 1656 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act promoting indoor air quality in facilities housing or serving vulnerable populations; providing for tax credits, for certification programs, for public education and for data collection; and imposing duties on the Department of Health.

HB 1656 requires facilities serving vulnerable populations (like nursing homes, shelters, or group homes) to improve indoor air quality through specific measures. It provides tax credits to help these facilities cover costs for air quality upgrades, establishes certification programs for facilities meeting standards, and funds public education campaigns about air quality benefits. The bill also mandates the Department of Health to collect data on indoor air quality conditions across these facilities. These provisions aim to create cleaner indoor environments for residents without specifying outcome predictions.
