The
Allergy System believes that fighting allergies begins at home or office. We are
dedicated to providing allergy sufferers with a complete supply of
high-quality products designed to reduce allergens inside the home or
office. We
are devoted to bringing you the best value in the industry. Allergy
products not only in this allergy system pages but also in air filter,
purifier and humidifier pages. You can use all air products as a part of
allergy system.
Most doctors recommend air cleaners or air purifiers for the homes of
allergy sufferers. Air filters reduce allergen exposures and make it
less likely that an allergy flare up or asthma attack will occur.
Bedrooms may need special air cleaners since a third of the day is spent
there.

Dust Mite Allergy
Some simple steps —- allergen-proof
mattress and pillow covers, weekly laundering of other bedding and very
careful vacuuming and dry steam cleaning of bedroom carpets and
upholstery —- can significantly reduce the levels of dust mite allergens
in bedrooms, according to scientists with the National Institute of
Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), the University of Washington and
Harvard University.
Dust mites are microscopic spider-like creatures that feed on flakes of
human skin and reside in bedding, carpets, upholstery, draperies and
other "dust traps." Dust mite allergens —- substances which can cause an
allergic reaction —- are proteins found in the mite's feces.
The purpose of the study was to evaluate practical methods for lowering
these allergens in bedrooms of low income, urban homes.
Recent studies have shown that exposure to house dust mite allergens is
a significant risk factor for the development of allergic diseases, such
as asthma and rhinitis (hay fever).
The researchers found that the interventions significantly reduced house
dust mite allergen concentrations. The use of allergen-proof covers and
either professional or in-home laundering of bedding reduced allergen
levels in beds. Both dry steam cleaning plus vacuuming and vacuuming
alone lowered allergen levels in carpets. Vacuuming and dry steam
cleaning each reduced allergen levels in upholstered furniture. Dry
steam cleaning machines have recently become available for home use.
