HVAC Care Helps Your Allergy Symptoms

If you suffer from allergies, you know how uncomfortable breathing can be when your indoor environment is contaminated with allergens. Whether your allergic symptoms are caused by asthma, another respiratory ailment or a simple sensitivity to common airborne irritants, taking steps to minimize the air pollution inside your home can make a big difference to your comfort and well-being. One key way you can lower pollution levels inside your home is through proper HVAC system care.

Initial Steps toward a Cleaner HVAC System and a Healthier Home

The most basic steps to reducing indoor air pollution are simple yet important not to overlook. For easier breathing, do the following:

• Clean or replace air filters monthly to capture particulate matter that flows through your HVAC system.
• Examine, clean, and treat your HVAC drain pan periodically to eliminate mold or algae growth.
• Visually inspect HVAC equipment and vents for dirt, dust or debris, and vacuum or dust as needed.
• Make sure your gas or oil-burning system is properly vented to the outdoors.

Optimizing Indoor Air Quality Control with Expert Help
