Spring Allergies or Poor Indoor Air Quality?

If you’ve been feeling like you just can’t shake your allergies this spring, even when you’re inside, you may be dealing with poor indoor air quality (IAQ). 

Poor IAQ causes many of the same symptoms as seasonal allergies, but unlike spring allergies, the symptoms of poor IAQ won’t go away when the seasons change. Here at Addison Homes, we help our clients stay healthy year-round by building healthy homes that promote high indoor air quality. 

What Are the Symptoms of Poor Indoor Air Quality?  

Some of the most common symptoms of poor IAQ include: 

• Congestion
• Coughing 
• Headache 
• Fatigue 
• Dizziness 
• Eye irritation 

Poor indoor air quality can also make existing respiratory conditions like asthma much worse. If your symptoms tend to act up when you’re at home and clear up when you spend a few days away, your home’s air quality could be what’s making you feel sick.
