Air Filter

Check the air filter on your HVAC unit every month, especially during heavy use months (winter and summer). If the filter looks dirty after a month, change it. At a minimum, change the filter every 3 months. A dirty filter will slow down air flow and make the system work harder to keep you warm or cool — wasting energy. A clean filter will also prevent dust and dirt from building up in the system — leading to expensive maintenance and/or early system failure.

Allergies

Most of the time due to allergies you stay at home in order to escape from pollen, but you forget the fact that Indoor Air Quality can be more dangerous than outdoors!  As of now most of the houses are well sealed and insulated, which means that your home is acting like a bubble, which has trapped unhealthy air inside.

According to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), six out of ten homes and buildings are hazardous to our health. This means that almost no building is immune from the indoor air quality epidemic. The basic reason is that even when the indoor pollutants are already trapped inside, you also bring the outdoor pollutants along with your shoes, clothes and pets in your house.
