The up-to-date apartment was so cool, however even though it was very old, dating back to the late 1760s, it had been well kept over the years… Some old houses look ramshackle, however this one was quaint and classy.
- The only issue I had after moving in was with my dust sensitivities, which seemed to get much worse in the up-to-date house.
I am prone to dust sensitivities anyway, so I take various daily meds for it, however this was something I hadn’t encountered before. I decided the first step should be to contact a local Heating, Ventilation plus A/C dealer and have them test my indoor air conditions. Two afternoons later a appealing young Heating, Ventilation plus A/C tech arrived on my doorstep with a satchel full of testing equipment. It took a few seconds, because he did a thorough inspection of the central idea and all of the HVAC duct, as well, but his results were conclusive – my dust sensitivities were being exacerbated by a preponderance of mouse feces and hair in the ventilation system. She could find no traces of rats or mice currently living in the air ducts, however at one point they had. All of the dander and germs they left behind were still haunting the air ducts, and killing the air quality for the whole house. Since the rodents were gone, the Heating, Ventilation plus A/C tech had a quick service for me, because all I needed was a deep cleaning of the ventilation system. I absolutely hope he is right, and after the air ducts and air vents have all been cleaned and sterilized then my dust sensitivities will stop kicking my butt so hard.
