About pollen allergy

A huge set of aeroallergens – pollen of various plants and fungal spores – awaits us outside. Pollen-sensitive persons encounter such problems as nasal congestion, sneezing, or itchy eyes. There are several ways to control the strength of impact. This depends on the measures taken on living premises and the person’s lifestyle, habits, or intensity of being outdoors. One can avoid unpleasant contact with plant pollen allergens when there is a lot of pollen in the air by limiting outdoor activities. Another none the less reliable way is to wear a protective mask that withholds part of allergens and prevents them from getting into the respiratory tract.

There are various ways to protect your home from pollen, too. In most cases, the protection is installed in vents or windows to allow ventilation of premises during flowering and this way reduce the amount of other allergens or improve air quality at home. For example, vents with pollen protection have special changeable filters that withhold airborne pollen and allow fresh air into the building. Modern vents can be chosen and ordered with a filtration system that withholds both pollen and outdoor dust. You can also choose windows with anti-allergic air vents. This type of air vents is produced using the anti-allergy screen, certified by the European Centre for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF), which withholds pollen and helps to protect the home from unwanted allergens from outside. Screens certified by this foundation (efficiency from 90%) can be mounted in windows too.
