Summer is the time to be out and about enjoying the beautiful scenery of our local community. But summer allergens can make it difficult to enjoy all of that beauty when we’re too busy dealing with itchy eyes, sniffling noses, and sneezing. Use whole-house solutions from AprilAire like an air purifier, humidifier, and dehumidifier to help you enjoy summer without all of the headaches

Top 5 Summer Allergens

#1: Pollen

• Six out of ten people are exposed to pollen trapped indoors

#2: Dust Mites

• An estimated 10% of the general population, and 90% of people with allergic asthma, are sensitive to dust mites

#3: Pet Dander

• An estimated 10% of the entire population may be allergic to pet dander

#4: Mold

Prevent Summer Allergens from Entering Your Home

Take measures to reduce the top 5 summer allergens by making sure dust, dirt, and other pollutants are prevented from entering the house. Remove shoes before entering the household. Be sure to close windows and doors during high pollen days. Do not allow smoking indoors.

Install a Whole-Home Air Purifier System

Whole-home air purifier systems remove up to 99% of airborne allergens and contaminants (even those one micron in size) and are 40 times more efficient than a standard furnace filter. This system removes summer allergens such as dust, dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, pollen, viruses, fungi, mold, and other dangerous substances from the air throughout the entire home.

Maintain Humidity Levels at Home

Whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers can help control allergens with the perfect level of moisture—one in which dust mites, mold, and mildew are not likely to survive.
