About 40 million people suffer from indoor allergies, according to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology. Here is one way (the one we specialize in) to reduce your exposure to allergens according to Better Homes and Gardens: Air Trigger: Your home ventilation system can be a friend or a foe. Properly maintained, it can filter out allergens. However, if you dont check it and clean filters, a central air system can circulate allergens such as pollen and animal dander. It can also be a source of mold itself if an attached humidifier pumps too much moisture through the system. Fix: Clean your dehumidifier once every two weeks. Change your furnace filters religiously according to the manufacturers directions (or the filter makers directions). Use ceiling fans to circulate air to help prevent water from condensing and mold from forming. Have fans in rooms of your house that involve water, such as a shower, sink, or toilet. These fixtures can trap vapor in a room.
