We know it\u2019s a big commitment and another system to maintain in your home, but most homeowners just assume the AC filter takes care of your air quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can assure you that it\u2019s helping, but it\u2019s certainly not pulling all that weight. Your air still has a bunch of particulate matter floating around, and it\u2019s impacting your family\u2019s health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The short answer is to ask whether your family would benefit. If it\u2019s a yes, then let\u2019s explain <em>why<\/em> so you can get a full, clear picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There\u2019s Particulate Matter in Your Air Right Now<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Perfect air quality isn\u2019t possible, but there are measurements of air quality that show you what\u2019s actually floating around. The more particulate matter, the worse off your health can be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Particulate matter can consist of mold spores, dust mites, pollen, pet dander, and more. The good news is this: your respiratory system has a method for dealing with debris that enters the lungs. It can filter it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it takes work, and it\u2019s not guaranteed to be perfect. The more particulate matter you breathe in, the more unnecessary exposure you have to whatever bacteria is present in your indoor air supply. The short version is this: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/report-environment\/indoor-air-quality#:~:text=or%20air%20conditioning.-,Effects%20on%20Human%20Health,%2C%20heart%20disease%2C%20and%20cancer.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">better air quality is linked to better health<\/a>. It\u2019s that simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reduces Symptoms of Asthma<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Asthma is a disorder where your lungs and airways can not only narrow, but they can become inflamed and result in asthma attacks. It\u2019s a serious condition, and it\u2019s made worse by poor air quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Poor air quality will affect your nose, throat, and eyes no matter who you are. Some individuals simply have an immune system that\u2019s more equipped to deal with it. But sufferers of asthma aren\u2019t so lucky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By removing particulate matter\u2013which consists of allergens\u2013from the air, you\u2019re effectively reducing the severity of any asthmatic reaction. You\u2019re also cutting down the likelihood of an asthma attack if you control your indoor air quality exceptionally well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You All Sleep Better<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your respiratory system works a lot while you sleep. Sure, your breathing slows and your BPM goes down, but not for your entire sleep cycle. Your breathing actually changes throughout the night and in different stages of sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When your lungs are pulling overtime because the bit of air it does pull in throughout the night is riddled with pollutants and particles, it doesn&#8217;t feel very good. It may even wake you up in the middle of the night. Better air means better sleep, and that\u2019s for everyone in your house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make the Upgrade Today<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your AC filter is helping, but it\u2019s not doing enough to filter all the air in your home. A whole house air filtration system is designed to improve the air quality for everyone, unlike those small filtration devices you buy that only handle a few hundred square feet. It\u2019s time to upgrade your air quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"\/contact\/send-message\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Contact Roberts Heating &amp; Air Conditioning, Inc. today<\/strong><\/a><strong> to schedule your air filtration system installation as soon as possible.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know air filtration devices work, but just what are they actually protecting you from?
