Air Conditioning and Allergies: Is it time for air conditioner service?

Published on June 17, 2015
Air-Conditioning-And-Allergies.jpg

As we welcome back summer to Gaithersburg we also have to welcome back something much less pleasant: allergies. While your home is supposed to be a safe haven from the various discomforts of nature, allergies are often an unpleasant exception. However, routine air conditioner service can help soothe those annoyances and make a big difference in your comfort.

While most spring and summer allergies are due to the activities of trees, flowers, and grasses, the majority of indoor allergies are mostly due to conditions already in your home. Many varieties of dust can collect in your home’s air ducts which then get distributed and redistributed throughout each and every room every time your air conditioner runs. In addition to dust knocked loose from the walls of your duct work, your air conditioner, air handler or furnace blower motor can also contain microbes, pet dander, dead insect matter, and maybe worse.

In fact, Indoor air pollution levels can be two to five times higher than outdoors. 1

If your air conditioning system is making your allergies worse, your kids will probably be the ones to suffer first2. That’s because their lungs are less developed and will become irritated more noticeably with exposure to contaminated air.

The first thing to consider if you think your air conditioner may be contributing to your allergies is upgrading your air filter to one with greater protection against allergens. High efficiency air filters have a MERV rating greater than 14. Parker Pearce Service Experts can provide a free estimate and install a high-efficiency filter system for you.

If a new air filter doesn’t lessen your family’s allergy problems or you want to feel certain that your air conditioner and ducts are free from dust, microbes, and other air contaminants, call the Gaithersburg HVAC experts at Parker Pearce Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning to schedule air conditioner service now. A licensed and experienced technician will be at your home promptly with all the tools and expertise required to make an assessment of the health of your system.

Your family’s health and comfort is our highest priority, and your health should not be at your air conditioner’s mercy. If you think your central AC system is not operating up to standards, call 301-476-4577 or use our online scheduling form to set up an air conditioner service with Parker Pearce Service Experts today.
