What Are You Breathing?
Primary cause of indoor air quality problems are pollution
sources such as: oil, gas, kerosene, asbestos, cleaning supplies, pesticides,
chemicals, outdoor air pollution, etc.
“Poor indoor
air quality can cause or contribute to the development of chronic respiratory
diseases such as asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. In addition, it can
cause headaches, dry eyes, nasal congestion, nausea and fatigue. People who
already have respiratory diseases are at greater risk.”-American Lung
Association
Knowing your alternatives and how to improve your family’s
indoor breathing experience is highly important to A+ Heating, Cooling and
Electric. We want to know that you and

Other indoor sources such as mold, mildew, bacteria,
viruses, pollen, and dust mites can also become an issue.
The effects of breathing in mold and mildew can be quite
similar to seasonal allergies. Symptoms
include itchy and watery eyes, sneezing, coughing, difficulty breathing,
fatigue, headaches and in severe cases infection or development of asthma.
Breathing in bacteria/viruses can lead to many different
ailments including bronchitis, pneumonia, croup, etc., which can lead to a
start of many doctor bills.
Allergies and asthmatic diseases can be traced back to dust
mites. These pesky little mites can be
found on bedding, mattresses, upholstery, carpets and other textiles in your
home. Symptoms of breathing in dust
mites are very comparable to other allergens.
Concerns should rise when you develop asthmatic symptoms or symptoms
comparable to a common cold.

mites, A+ provides services to help.
