Alleviate Allergy Symptoms from Dust Mites with Proper Air Quality

Millions of people experience allergy symptoms due to dust mites all year round. Dust mites can be found throughout your home because they aren't super picky about their living environment. They can be found in beds, carpets, furniture, and air ducts, and they are one of the most common causes of asthma throughout the world. Humid, warm climates are the places they reside the most, which means Wisconsin summers are prime time for them to invade. 

The best way to combat dust mites is to schedule regular cleanings of your air ducts. Air Quality Controllers cleans air ducts and HVAC systems so there is no dirt or debris left for dust mites. We pride ourselves in providing you with safe and clean air for a healthy life.

Allergy Symptoms from Dust Mite Infestation

You might not be able to piece together immediately that your home is being invaded by dust mites. Since these critters are microscopic, identifying factors tend to be worsening allergy symptoms because you can’t see or smell them. The following are symptoms that continue to worsen the longer dust mites reside in your home:

• Headaches
• Sneezing 
• Congestion
• Runny or itchy nose
• Itchy, red, or watery eyes

Nasal, ocular, pulmonary, or skin inflammation can also be triggered by dust mite allergens. If you suspect your allergies are being caused by dust mites, it’s recommended you see a certified allergist to treat your symptoms. Call Air Quality Controllers today to prevent your dust mite situation from worsening.

For those who have asthma, you may also experience:

• Difficulty breathing 
• Chest tightness or pain
• Wheezing when exhaling
• Shortness of breath, coughing, and lack of sleep
• Severe asthma attack

Benefits of Cleaning Your Ducts

It’s recommended that air ducts be cleaned every 3-5 years. You want clean, safe air for your family or the workers in your commercial building. There are several other benefits to cleaning your ducts regularly, including:

• Increase in air conditioner performance - cleaning dusty and dirty air conditioner coils to increase functionality and lower energy costs.
• Improve air handler unit filtering - Dust build-up causes fans and motor operations to become less efficient. Dust clogs coils and worsens performance, costing you more money.
• Prevent mold and dust buildup - moisture breaks down insulation and promotes mold growth. We protect the liner from breaking down and prevent growth that could lead to dust mites. 
• Save energy - Improving the efficiency of your HVAC system can save you money because it won’t have to work as hard to do its job.
