Along with the long-awaited arrival of spring and warmth, the question of allergy to flowering grasses and tree blossoms arises. Recently, there has been a rapid increase in the incidence of allergies. According to WHO*, today from 20 to 40% of people suffer from this disease. That is, every 3rd inhabitant of planet Earth is an allergy sufferer, regardless of age and nationality. Allergy ranks fourth among diseases in terms of their prevalence. For the most part, the development of allergic reactions in the body is provoked by: dust and household dust mites, plant pollen, mold fungi.
The peak of allergic diseases falls on the summer period, but the activation of allergy to flowering begins with the arrival of warmth: April-May. In the spring, allergy to flowering trees, in particular birch, is activated, and the first sprouts of the source of allergy also appear under the warm spring sun in the form of various herbs that are actively growing after a plentiful wet winter.
In the summer season, the most common cause of allergies is pollen from grasses and weeds. In June-July, there is a reaction to the flowering of grasses - timothy, rye, corn, wheat, wheatgrass. From July to autumn, weeds - wormwood, quinoa, nettle, plantain - bloom.
During the period of seasonal allergies, it is especially necessary to maintain a microclimate in the room, which directly prevents the spread and development of various allergy pathogens.
A great helper in improving the condition of the mucous membrane and one of the factors that can affect the mild course of the disease is microclimate control, in particular air filtration. It is no secret that pollen, which is formed from trees, actively settles in residential premises and enters into diffusion with household dust. Thus, the dust that has accumulated in your premises is a source of allergies.

Thanks to the use of the ionizer, the air in the home gets rid of foreign odors, the effect of frosty freshness appears and a significant number of harmful elements/microbes/pathogens in your room disappear.
• Dehumidification of the air from excess humidity – neutralizes the development of dust mite pathogens.
• DOUBLE SELF-CLEAN – the innovative technology “DOUBLE SELF-CLEAN” allows the air conditioner to self-clean from dust, fungi, viruses and bacteria. This function freezes all accumulated dirt on the air conditioner heat exchanger, and then heats the heat exchanger, thus, the air conditioner self-cleans from accumulated dirt.
So let's meet the warm season in comfort without allergies, in a clean and comfortable room.
