When allergy season hits, most people blame the outdoors, pollen, grass and dusty air. However, often the real problem is hiding inside your home. Indoor Air can carry just as many irritants, and because we spend so much time indoors, it can have a real impact on your comfort, health and well-being. That’s where Kelso Heating & Cooling can help. We identify common triggers and offer proven solutions to help you breathe easier year-round.
What Could Be Circulating in Your Air?
Here are a few common indoor allergy triggers that could be floating around your home:
- Pet Dander
Tiny skin and saliva particles from your pets can settle into carpets, furniture and vents, which lingers long after your pet has left the room. - Biological Contaminants
Damp, poorly ventilated areas, may as allow for the growth of airborne irritants that can trigger symptoms like coughing or congestion. - Pollen Brought Indoors
Pollen clings to clothes, shoes and pets and can become trapped in your HVAC system, recirculating through your home’s air. - Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
Found in common household products like cleaners, air fresheners. and paint, They can cause irritation even though you can’t always smell them.
Where Filter Fall Short
Standard HVAC filters are mostly designed to protect your system, not necessarily your air quality. They do a good job of trapping larger debris like dust but may miss the smaller particles that contribute to allergy symptoms. That means common irritants like pollen and VOCs can continue to circulate through your air.
