Home Allergy Triggers Every Family Should Know

Home Allergy Triggers Every Family Should Know

Fast Fact:

Indoor air is actually five times more contaminated than outdoor air. This means that indoor air pollution is a serious problem that shouldn’t be ignored. Some 50-million Americans (one in every five people) suffer from some form of allergy.
Post Green Cleaning agents use HEPA Vacuums to eliminate all post-construction dust and allergy triggers.

Why Detailed Cleaning Matters for Indoor Air Quality

Many allergy triggers are too small to see and can continue circulating through a home long after construction, renovation, or remediation work is completed. Fine dust particles often settle into vents, baseboards, window tracks, and soft surfaces where regular cleaning may not fully remove them.
Professional HEPA vacuuming and detailed cleaning can help reduce airborne dust, improve indoor air quality, and prepare a space for safer everyday use.

Airborne Allergens

Airborne allergens which trigger our allergies, sinuses and nasal congestion are ever present. They cause the sneezing, runny nose, itching, and bloodshot eyes of hay fever (allergic rhinitis). Airborne allergens can also affect the linings of the lungs causing asthma, wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath.
See the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology website and their article on Diagnosing Allergies for more information.
