Your Air Conditioner is Making You Sick...

Breathing recycled air can be harmful to your mental & physical health

Ever wake up in the morning with an inexplainable head cold and suffer through your day with a range of symptoms like headache, running nose and a sore throat?
Well it may be your AC that is making you sick. What many do not realize is that your AC does not bring in fresh air, rather it recycles your existing indoor air, cools it and pushes it back out at a lower temperature. The result of breathing this recycled air can be harmful. 

Indoor Air Pollution & Air Conditioning

You may be wondering how this recycled air can be so harmful, I mean your AC does have a filter... but what may surprise many people is that indoor air quality can be up to 5x worse than outdoor pollution. This is because our homes are designed to be airtight, keeping the temperature comfortable while protecting us from the elements. The unintended consequence of this is that we end up breathing in a cocktail of indoor pollutants that can cause effects detrimental to our health. 

Health Hazards of Breathing Indoor Air Pollution

The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) estimates that as of 2017 there were 1.6 million premature deaths caused by complications related to indoor air pollution. This is a serious public health issue that more and more people are becoming aware of. While for most people breathing in constant pollution activates an immune response in the form of a recurring cold with all of the standard symptoms such as a runny nose, headaches, chills, and a constant cough. Air pollution has also shown to cause sever headaches and has had negative effect on cognitive ability and focus.
