Headaches and Allergies Caused by Poor Indoor Air Quality
HEADACHES
If you suffer from regular headaches only
when you are in a particular room or building, there are two likely
causes: Mold or Clogged Air Ducts
- Mold - The presence of mold in
your home or building will not only weaken the structures of your home,
but can also lead to several health issues. In addition to headaches,
recurring mold exposure can produce the following symptoms: decreased
attention span, fatigue, respiratory distress, asthma, irritations of
eye, nose, throat, and lungs, and redness and rashes, among others.
AirCare
Services specializes in mold remediation and removal services. If you
suffer from any of these symptoms, a mold test should be performed in
order to identify the levels and types of species of mold in your home
or office.
- Clogged Air Ducts – If the ductwork in your home or
building is clogged, clean air cannot reach the room or rooms it is
vented into. When this happens only stale air and carbon dioxide
re-circulates and the lack of oxygen-rich air will cause headaches. The
best way to treat poor indoor air quality is to have your air duct
system cleaned and disinfected. Click here to learn more about AirCare’s air duct cleaning services!
ALLERGIES
If
you experience allergic reactions like: itchy or watery eyes, sneezing,
swelling, rashes, asthma or a sore throat more severely when you are in
a certain room, space or building than you do in others, it is likely
caused by the presence of unknown allergens. If you or other building
occupants complain about recurring allergic irritations, you should
consider an indoor air quality test to identify potential pollutants
and allergens in the air that could be impacting your health.
