Can A Vacuum Cleaner Actually Help With Allergy Season?

By: Abigail Franks Home | Business | Home-Business


It's no secret that Springtime is when many of the dormant allergies raise their ugly head and make us miserable. Of course, it's not really the season of spring that causes the allergies, but the new growth plant life. While brilliant grandeur of new green leaves on trees and the beauty of fresh flowers, cannot be disputed, they also bring an explosion of pollen.

Pollen and other allergens are the reasons why spring is so difficult for many who suffer with allergies. Spring also can aggravate and bring on many allergic symptoms by the amount of dust and dirt in the air caused by the breeze. Wet and snowy winters keep the level of dust and dirt in the air down. That gentle springtime breeze however can bring misery to many with allergies

Chances are you live in a home that was built in the last 50 years. The focus on energy efficiency in newer homes has caused other challenges especially for those who suffer from asthma or allergies. One of the biggest problems is that while the homes are more energy-efficient, they are also tighter and can trap pollutants and allergens inside your home. This in turn can make indoor air actually more likely to trigger hay fever or an allergic reaction.

To limit this exposure, every effort should be made to remove the pollen dust and other allergens from the air. A high-quality vacuum cleaner has the capability of capturing these allergy causing particles using high efficiency particulate air filtration systems. These HEPA filters are designed to remove 99.97% of the dust, pollen, mold, bacteria and any airborne particles down to .3 micrometers.

Selecting a vacuum cleaner is a personal choice and should not be based on what others thing is best. Only you can decide what features and functions are important to you and your family. When considering a new vacuum, look for those with HEPA filtration to help limit allergy triggers in your home. For more information on how to select the right vacuum cleaner for you, visit the link below.

By regularly using a vacuum cleaner featuring HEPA filtration, it's possible to collect many of the allergy triggers the land in your home from the outdoors. While the best idea is to simply keep doors and windows closed, many of us prefer the fresh air even if it increases the number of allergens in our home.

Vacuuming can not only clean your home but also make it more habitable for those who suffer with allergies. Add to this an air purifier to help remove particulate matter in your home and you will soon have much cleaner air.

While a vacuum cleaner is not the complete solution to keeping your home allergy trigger free, it can be an important part of your on going battle with pollen, bacteria and airborne dust.
