During certain seasons of the year, people start snitching
due to allergy and there are plenty of people who suffer from such problem. The
air pollution is mainly responsible for such allergic condition. Also, there
are number of reasons in the indoors that can cause allergic conditions. Some
of them are due to the following reasons.
·
Dust mites and dander from
pets
·
Carpet fibres and also
various furniture fabrics
·
Various chemicals used in
the building materials
·
Radon gas
·
Pesticides and many other
chemicals used for cleaning
·
Wood burning or smoking
·
Gases from appliances for
cooking and also from water heaters
Sometimes air conditioning systems supplied by Voltas
can cause allergy, if the air conditioning system is not regularly maintained
by proper HVAC professionals. That is because of mould formation on the coils
of the condensers that may be formed if the moulds are not regularly cleaned.
Therefore, following HVAC maintenance tips can help
to prevent or reduce the seasonal allergic conditions.
- Never ignore replacing your filters regularly
Any
well-maintained filter will ensure that the air quality of the indoor is pretty
good. All air filters have certain specification which is indicated by its MERV
rating. Based on this rating the filter can remove airs of any particular sizes
of particle. These specifications are quite well known to professional HVAC
professionals.
People
who are suffering from allergic problem should also know about this MERV
rating, which should be minimum value of 8. Due to this value of MERV only
certain particle size of dust will be allowed to be present in the indoor
atmosphere.
- Clean all the debris and dusts
Make
sure that there is no Air
pollution inside the room due to presence of any debris or dusts. Otherwise,
these dusts will continue to circulate inside the room and will pollute the
atmosphere further inside the room. You must regularly clean by using suitable
vacuum cleaner so that all the dusts present in the room gets sucked in by the
vacuum instead of spreading all around the room. All the items of the indoor
items including the ducts for air conditioning system also must be thoroughly
cleaned regularly.

Check for any mould
Moulds
are very much fond of moist and humid conditions. Moulds can further aggravate
allergy and asthma symptoms and create problems for respiratory conditions.
Sometime this can also lead to death.
Make
sure that humidity level inside the room should be within 30 to 50 per cent.
This not only makes you feel comfortable, but also not allow the formation of
mould or dust mites. You can use proper humidifier that should work for the
whole area and maintain constant humidity reading inside the room.
Even
after taking all such actions, you must regularly check for mould formation.
There can be humid or damp present in your room that was not noticed by you. If
there is slight mould formation then you may take care of them. However, if the
mould is too high then you must call professionals to think of some long-term
solution.
