Last year, right when the weather started to sizzling up, I began feeling sick.
Every morning, I’d wake up with a headache and congestion.
There were afternoons when I was forced to call in sick to work. Since I don’t suffer dust irritations, I wasn’t sure what was causing it. I eventually noticed that our symptoms disappeared after I arrived at work. Once I arrived home, the stuffy nose, coughing, sneezing and sore throat would come back. I got suspicious that our was the cause. My health concerns appeared at around the same time I lowered the temperature control. I called a local Heating plus A/C corporation and busy a service call. When the serviceman took the apart, he showed me the accumulation of contaminants within the inner toilings. I was shocked by the amount of dust, debris, aglae and grime on the components. There was a significant amount of mold growth. The serviceman explained that the hot, moist interior of the is the perfect environment for bacteria and other harmful microorganisms to thrive. Every time the cooling method started it up, it was spreading allergens throughout the house, and I was breathing them in. Plus, the debris restricts airflow through the system, forcing the to run longer, toil harder and use more energy. I was playing higher than necessary weekly electric bills for diminished comfort. The greater wear and tear on the increased the risk of malfunction. After the serviceman completed a thorough cleaning of all components, our health complaints went away completely. I now make sure to have our cooling method professionally diagnosed every Springtime.
