Your air conditioner helps keep your home cool and comfortable during summer and warm in the winter. But, did you know that your air conditioner does more than just keep you comfortable?
Your air conditioner is actually an instrumental piece of equipment for keeping allergens at bay and you allergy-free. Air conditioning companies are always looking for better ways to not only maintain the temperature of your home, they are also very aware of how important it is to breathe clean healthy air. New advancements are always being made in the efficiency of air filtration in your air conditioner.
Mould
If left unattended, mould can cause respiratory problems and can heighten allergy issues.
Mould grows most commonly in areas high in moisture and humidity, making the inside of your air conditioner the perfect breeding ground for this allergy causing nasty.
Dust Mites
The thought that there are tiny living creatures around your house can be a little disconcerting, but they are present in most homes. Although nearly invisible, a regular household contains a great number of them.
The by-products of dust mites are a major cause of common allergies like coughing, wheezing and can trigger asthma attacks. While it is impossible to completely rid your home of dust mites, there are measures you can take to keep them at bay.
Like other mites and parasites, dust mites thrive in humid areas. It makes perfect sense then that keeping the air dry and cool limits their growth and population. Regular cleaning of the filters in your air conditioner will help keep them out of the air.
Purified Air
An air conditioner doesn’t just keep the air cool in summer and warm in winter, it also helps keep the air fresh and clean. When your air conditioner pulls stale air out of your house, it is also pulling significant amounts of pollen, dander, dust and even pet hair that may also be present. So, the air that remains has a lot less pollution, contaminants and allergens.
While you can help to maintain clean healthy air by cleaning your filters once a month, however, it is vitally important that you have your air conditioner professionally cleaned and sanitised by a trained technician twice a year.
