Spring is in the air – and so is pollen. And also dust, bacteria, and virus-causing germs. But we aren’t talking about outdoor air; we’re talking about your home’s indoor air.
Since this time of year is peak season for asthma and allergy sufferers, the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America has declared May as National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month.

Air Filtration
Hospitals use HEPA (High Efficiency Particular Air) filtration systems and, depending on your family’s immune systems, you may want to invest in one of these high-efficiency filters, too. Even if you feel like your allergies are pretty mild, people are often surprised by the nearly sudden change in how they feel after switching to a high-efficiency air filtration system.
If you don’t feel like such a high-efficiency air filtration system is a good choice for your home, there are several options to choose from when it comes to improving your family’s air quality. Below are different air filters and cleaners that you can choose for your home’s health.
Germicidal UV Light Systems
Germicidal UV Light System is quite the mouthful to say germ killer. These systems help eliminate germs and bacteria that contribute to allergies and can exacerbate the symptoms of asthma. According to a study, one in five people who suffered from allergies was also exposed to fungi and bacteria in their HVAC systems. Investing in a UV light system helps to kill off these allergens and keep your family healthy.
Humidify or Dehumidify
Dry air can irritate your nasal passages and take your typical 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.
Help improve the quality of your family’s air with A-Plus. Call today for an in-home air quality analysis and we’ll help you decide which system is the right choice for you to keep your home healthy.
