Summer Is Just About Here...Allergies May Not Be Taking a Vacation.

Summer is just about here for most parts of the country. Some of our customers up north are still having a few cold snaps but all and all summer is pretty much here. Many people think the runny noses and red eyes of spring are behind them and it is for some, but for others summertime just brings different symptoms.

In early spring the budding trees produce the symptoms associated with allergies, watery/itchy eyes, runny noses and constant sneezing. Then starting in April and ending in May your discomfort is triggered by pollens from grasses and flowering plants.

Now as summer starts to heat up it gets drier in some places and more humid in others. When it gets really dry the vegetation starts to die allowing it to get blown around by the wind along with the dirt and dust. Very humid climates produce an excellent environment for the mold and mildew which grow on dead grass and leaves and other plants. Another problem associated with high humidity is the increase in the dust mite population. Once the heat is off and the humidity level increases you may notice you’re stopped up and/or sneezing when you wake up in the morning.

Either way you may find that your allergy symptoms have not gone away this summer just changed. Here are just a couple of little tings you can do to help yourself during the summer season.

· Wear a pollen or dust mask when outdoors for a long period of time.

· Keep doors and windows closed up during heavy pollen counts

· Change or clean air-conditioner filters monthly, high quality pleated filters every couple of months.

· If using a window air-conditioner, keep it off when no one is at home. Once it is turned on, stay out of the room for at least thirty minutes as some window units emit short bursts of mold when they are first turned on. (Hard to keep window units clean)


Mold and Your Air Conditioning System

Mold is a natural part of our world. It is everywhere we go. It plays a very important part in our world by breaking down dead organic matter such as leaves, decayed trees, grass cuttings and other things of nature. It does not belong indoors and should be avoided.

It grows in your A/C Unit because it is a wet environment by the coils. The coil is a vital part of your air conditioning system. If it is not kept clean, your system will not work efficiently. (Read Complete Article)


Air Pollution Endangering Lives Of 6 In 10 Americans, Report

Over 185 million Americans or about 6 out of every 10 people in the US live in areas where the air is so polluted that it endangers life, said a new report released earlier this week.

Although there has been a lot of progress against air pollution, nearly every major US city still has bad air pollution and for many of them the figures show the air this year is dirtier than it was last year.

American Lung Association National Board Chair, Stephen Nolan said this should be a "wake up call".

"We know that air pollution is a major threat to human health, when 60 percent of Americans are left breathing air dirty enough to send people to the emergency room, to shape how kids' lungs develop, and to kill, air pollution remains a serious problem," he said.
