Here&#8217;s how:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>Air Ducts<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Air ducts serve as a method of delivering cooled air throughout the home. Over time, they can also collect pollen, dust, and other unwanted substances that are cycled through each room as the A\/C unit kicks on. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>Air Filter<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Surprisingly, traditional air filters are not intended to block small substances, such as pollen and other tiny particles from entering your home. The primary role of a standard filter is to help prevent dust and larger particles from entering the equipment so the system can continue to run efficiently. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A dirty filter, or one that is inadequate for the job, can allow particles of pollen, as well as other allergens, to pass through. For individuals suffering from spring allergies, it is recommended to install a high energy particulate air filter, or HEPA filter, which can remove up to 99% of small particles from circulating in the air. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How You Can Help Improve Indoor Air Quality<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are numerous methods of improving the quality of your home&#8217;s indoor air.
