I hate allergy season and that I am affected.
- The people who whine about allergies get on my nerves.
Being a part of their club stinks. But, I keep my misery to myself and handle it privately. There is nothing I can do about the outside air and complaining about it does nothing. What I do is tackle my indoor air quality. If I am lazy, I will have a headache, itchy throat and sneeze a bunch. If I am on top of it, I hardly notice my allergies. I have a whole bunch of IAQ equipment that tackles the pollen. First, I have HEPA filters put in my HVAC system instead. HEPA filters have smaller holes and catch more dust from getting into the system. I stop the pollen from getting into my HVAC and cycling in the air quality. HEPA filters are quite expensive though, so I only use them during the pollen heavy times. Next, I have UV lights installed within my HVAC device. The lights clean the air before it gets released out of the HVAC. Apparently hospital operating rooms are required by law to use UV lights. They reduce mold, mildew and fungi growth. They also stop dust from sticking to the system. The final air quality product is an air purification plan. Smells and leftover dust is tackled once the air is blown out of the HVAC. With all three of these things working, my indoor air quality is as clean as it can possibly be. I do feel way better once I am inside.
