Air Filtration
Depending on the immune system levels in your home, you may want to invest in a HEPA (High Efficiency Particular Air) filtration system, which is high-efficiency and used by many hospitals. Even if you consider your allergies to be pretty mild, people are often shocked by the nearly instant change in how they feel after changing to a high-efficiency air filtration system.
If you don’t feel like such a high-efficiency air filtration system is a good fit for your home, there are many options to choose from when it comes to improving your home’s air quality. Below are several options of air filters and cleaners that you can choose for your home’s health.
Germicidal UV Light Systems
Germicidal UV Light System is just a complicated way to say germ exterminator. These products help eliminate germs and bacteria that contribute to allergies and can exacerbate the symptoms of asthma. According to a study, 1/5th of people who had allergies was also exposed to fungi and bacteria in their ventilation systems. Investing in a UV light system helps to kill off these allergens and keep your home healthy.
Humidify or Dehumidify
Dry air can irritate your nasal passages and take your standard allergies to a full-blown sinus infection in a matter of days. On the flip side, too much humidity can increase the growth of dust mites and microbes, making your allergy symptoms even worse.
