Combat Seasonal Allergies with Tips from Marshall Services

Spring brings with it warmer temperatures, beautiful blooms and an increase in allergens in the air. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), exposure to air pollutants can be up to 100 times higher indoors than outside, leading to potentially dangerous allergy reactions for those at the highest risk during the season.

"When it's spring, you want to open the windows and let that fresh air in your home. For those who suffer from allergies and asthma like myself, this isn't the best decision because it invites dander, pollen and other allergens into your home," said Glenn Dickey Jr., third generation owner of Marshall Home Comfort. "Checking your filters and inspecting your air ducts and cooling systems is the first step to fighting seasonal allergies that start in your home." 

The experts at Marshall Services offer Montgomery County residents these tips to improve indoor air quality and minimize exposure to allergic conditions:

• Weekly clean – Limit allergens entering a home by cleaning home hard surfaces (tables, counters, shelves, floors) with a damp cloth weekly. Using a vacuum with a HEPA filter will also help improve the home's air quality.
• Use your air conditioner – Cooling systems reduce pollen counts inside the home. Before temperatures and pollen counts rise, have your AC unit checked by a licensed professional to ensure that it and allergen reducing filters are functioning properly.
• Inspect and replace air filters – Changing air filters regularly can improve your indoor air quality.
• Consider an air purification system – For those individuals at the highest risk levels of allergic reactions to spring contaminants, a whole-home air purification system can offer significant results to eliminate the allergens and toxins in the home.
