Allergy Season Defense - Breathe Cleaner Air in Your Home

The indoor air quality of your home or commercial buildings play a key role in your health. Common air pollutants can trigger allergies, asthma, and a variety of respiratory conditions. A clean heating and conditioning system minimizes your exposure to mold spores, dust, and pollen.

Common Fall Irritants

Ragweed is rampant all over Florida and is a prime cause of allergies, especially in Fall. 

Ragweed is a type of weed common almost everywhere in the United States and its pollen can travel quite far. This means you don’t need to live out in the country to experience the effects of it; Even people who live in the bustling cities can suffer from a ragweed allergy.

The season usually starts during the last half of summer and lingers into the fall as late as into November.

Mold thrives in damp, humid, and cool environments, especially in decaying plant matter – leaves and grass clippings, compost piles and rotting, wet wood. Mold spores spread like pollen allergens. Mold spreads easily indoors; it goes dormant in winter until temperatures warm again.

Indoor Air Quality Control

The comfort experts at Air Conditioning and Heating, Inc. recommend scheduling a Duct Cleaning once every 3-5 years in accordance with the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) and installing the air purification system Air Guardian REME HALO™ available for your whole home or business air quality purification.

HVAC Duct Cleaning

You may consider having your air ducts cleaned simply because it seems logical that air ducts will get dirty over time and should be occasionally cleaned. Provided that the cleaning is done properly, no evidence suggests that such cleaning would be detrimental. EPA does not recommend that the air ducts be cleaned routinely, but only as needed. EPA does, however, recommend that if you have a fuel burning furnace, stove or fireplace, they be inspected for proper functioning and serviced before each heating season to protect against carbon monoxide poisoning.
