Asthma is a disease of the airways and the small tubes which carry air in and out of our lungs. When sufferers are exposed to certain asthma triggers e.g. Cold air, exercise and pollen they become inflamed and cause the airway muscles to tighten and produce mucus. This makes the airways narrow and difficult for you to breath. Common asthma symptoms include:
While there is no cure for asthma yet it is a manageable health condition with the right management and education.
Everyone who suffers from asthma should have a written asthma plan. However only 20% of people aged 15 and over have one. An asthma action plan is something every asthma sufferer should develop with a healthcare professional. It should include your asthma medicine and how you may need to increase or decrease this depending on your asthma symptoms. This is important to have in writing so if something does happen to an asthma sufferer the people around them will know exactly what needs to be done.
Advanced Clean Air has a range of action plans in place and every one of our technicians is trained as to what to do in such a situation. With both asthma kits and first aid kits in every van our technicians will be on hand to help.
If you or someone you know suffers from Asthma and don't have an action plan we recommend getting in contact with the Asthma Foundation.
There are certain things that can increase the chance of a child developing asthma. One of the most common cause of childhood asthma is exposure to environmental allergens. These are easily reduced around your home with regular dusting and cleaning. Unfortunately, you may not be able to give the most active agent in this process a proper clean, which is your air conditioner. Dust and allergens build up in your air conditioner where you cannot see them and are then circulated around your home for everyone to breathe in every time the unit is on. These will remain and increase in your air conditioner until the unit is professionally cleaned. You cannot see this and hence will not be able to clean it to the level required to eliminate asthma contributors.
Advanced Clean Air can help. Our clean will get rid of all the nasty build up in your air conditioner and ensure the air you are breathing is clean and fresh. While these measures may not completely prevent asthma developing it will definitely decrease the symptoms.
If you or someone you know suffers from asthma it is a good idea to get your air conditioners cleaned regularly, especially if it is one that is in constant use. Advanced Clean Air will clean your air conditioner to the highest standard to help you reduce the allergens and asthma triggers around your home.
