The sun is out, the birds are chirping, and flowers are starting to bloom. For Sacramento residents or anyone in this region for this matter this means one thing: ALLERGY SEASON. Yes, most of our local friends stock up on allergy meds or get a prescription to even go outside to do a simple walk, and return to the respite of their home thinking it is a safe haven indoors. This could not be further from the truth. 

Home indoor air quality can directly affect your family’s health and it is a fact that a majority of families spend most of their time indoors.  As a homeowner, you are not keeping the pollen outdoors for starters if you are not maintaining your HVAC system. Exposure to poor indoor air quality cannot only cause discomfort, but long term exposure to indoor air pollution that can lead to effects not just limited to allergies, but chronic illnesses and respiratory problems.

How can a homeowner prevent this? The solutions are simple. 

Maintain Your HVAC. Lack of HVAC maintenance just doesn’t only create allergy problems in the home, but it is a proven fact that regular HVAC maintenance can help improve the indoor health for the whole family. This includes a regular cleaning, high quality air filters and inspections for contaminants to reduce these problems. Additionally, dirty and dusty air filters need to be replaced and are crucial for indoor air quality. A professional Bonney Service Technician can easily help with these needs and keep busy homeowners on a maintenance schedule, so they do not need to give this to-do list a second thought.

Other problems that many homeowners do not think about are mold and pet dander. With our recent heavy rains, mold is a valid concern when it comes to potentially extra moisture in their HVAC system. Bonney technicians are trained to detect mold and will advise on the best measures the homeowner should take for removal as well as the best filter for those homeowners wanting to minimize pet dander circulating throughout their home. Both of these issues create problems with indoor air that resemble allergies or hay fever and a skilled Bonney HVAC technician can recommend an upgraded filter to deal with these indoor pollutants.

The bottom line is that scheduling regular maintenance of your HVAC system to eliminate or reduce the circulation of contaminants in your home is key. Bonney HVAC technicians can perform regular inspections and cleaning  of HVAC units and ductwork. For more information, please visit: https://www.bonney.com/ or call 866-459-3909.
