With the start of the pandemic, each one of us has become even more cautious about their health. These are anxious times for many, as they follow additional procedures for sanitization and social distancing. Concerns about colds or viruses have become common thought for everybody. You feel as if you are doing your best to keep yourself and your family safe and healthy. You may be wondering, "What more can I do to keep myself from getting sick?". You wonder about this because you feel that you can fight the colds often, but you do not get a "full" viral or bacterial disinfection. Maybe another family member who lives in your home often complains that he feels tired for no reason. The problem may be coming from your air conditioner.
The whole point of your HVAC system is to make you and your family feel more comfortable in your home as it not only cools but also protects the belongings within it. Unfortunately, when your air conditioning unit or other components of your HVAC system are not properly maintained, the result is low air quality. The air quality in your home could be making you sick, exhausted, and in more severe cases, can cause air conditioner illness.
Air conditioners and the cold air they provide are by no means inherently harmful. Air conditioners are necessary and beneficial to countless individuals suffering from respiratory illness. The problem can start in the dark crevices of your HVAC system in the form of airborne allergens like mould, fungus, dust. As these microparticles linger in your vents, they can multiply rapidly, all the while they are circulated throughout your home, your respiratory system and are absorbed into your bloodstream. Symptoms include inflamed sinus passages, stuffy nose, throat irritation, dry skin, increase in asthma attacks, difficulty concentrating, allergies, fatigue and even flu-like symptoms in severe cases.
Regular maintenance of your air conditioning system is always the best practice. If you take proper care of your air conditioner, it will take care of you, providing you with fresh air without viruses and allergies. Cleaner air is due to the presence of a variety of filters and technologies - plasma filter, electrostatic precipitator, air ionizer and more. It is essential to note that it is crucial to clean and make prophylaxis to your air conditioner before the winter season begins to save you future headaches.
To work normally, each appliance needs maintenance that extends its service life. In air conditioners, it is mandatory to perform prophylaxis every year, and at least twice a month (depending on the middle of operation) to clean the filters so that it can process the required amount of air in the room. If the filters are blocked (contaminated) reduce the flow of sucked-treated air and do not lead to the desired effect. First of all, let's not forget what the filters are for - they filter the air from dust particles. Therefore, the better we take care of the purity of the air conditioner, the less the risk of respiratory disease decreases. Speaking of allergens, it's time to clean the air ducts of your air conditioner. Airway cleaning will remove allergens and contribute to more efficient air conditioning.
Last but not least, ventilate your home often and control the humidity for maximum comfort in your home. You can also trust our experts for excellent prevention of your air conditioner.
