A fresh spring without sneezing: everything about pollen and how to keep it at bay!
Spring is a beautiful season when nature comes back to life. But for people with hay fever, it means sneezing, itchy eyes, and a stuffy nose. The culprit? Pollen—microscopic grains of pollen floating in the air that can trigger allergic reactions. Luckily, there are ways to keep your home free of pollen and other allergens so you can enjoy clean indoor air.
Pollen Calendar: when is your allergy in the air?
The pollen calendar provides an overview of when different types of pollen are present in the air. This helps allergy sufferers prepare for high-pollen periods and take the right precautions.
April to May: Trees like birch, hazel and alder release the most pollen.
May to July: Grass and meadow pollen, such as rye, cause the most allergies.
August to October: Weeds like mugwort and ragweed bloom and trigger symptoms.
By keeping an eye on the pollen calendar, you can take timely action to reduce discomfort.
How to keep your home pollen- and allergen-free?
Besides keeping windows and doors closed on high-pollen days, certain appliances can help keep indoor air clean and healthy.
1. Air Purifiers: breathe without worries
Air purifiers are an excellent solution to filter pollen and other allergens from the air. Devices like the Stylies Alpha air purifier remove 99.9% of allergens thanks to:
HEPA and carbon filters, which capture pollen, dust, and even odors.
UV-C light, which neutralizes bacteria and viruses.
An ionization function, which helps eliminate fine airborne particles.
With its quiet operation and night mode, the Alpha air purifier is perfect for the bedroom, allowing you to breathe freely without allergy symptoms.
2. Humidifiers: less airborne pollen
A good humidity level (40–60%) helps pollen and dust particles settle, reducing the chance of inhalation. The Air & Me Clarence ultrasonic humidifier creates an optimal indoor climate with:
Cold and warm mist, for comfortable humidity levels.
An ionization function, which further purifies the air.
Smart HygroSmart® technology, which automatically regulates air humidity.
With its large water tank and convenient app control, this device is a valuable addition to any home.
