March marks the beginning of tree and grass pollen season in Northeast Ohio. Pollen can enter homes through windows, doors, and HVAC systems, aggravating allergies, asthma, and respiratory discomfort. Proper preventive steps keep your home healthy and comfortable.
Tips to Reduce Allergens
Upgrade Air Filters:
Use HEPA or MERV 13 filters to capture pollen, dust, and fine particles. Replace them regularly for optimal airflow.
Clean Ducts and Vents:
Dust and pollen accumulate over winter. Professional duct cleaning removes allergens and ensures even airflow throughout your home.
Seal Gaps:
Prevent pollen from entering by sealing gaps around windows, doors, and ducts.
Consider Air Purifiers:
Portable or whole-home air purifiers can complement your HVAC system, improving air quality and reducing allergen exposure.
