With Spring comes allergy season for so many of us. If you’re a person who lives with allergies or asthma you may not be looking forward to the onset of allergy season. There are a number of things people do to minimize the effects of allergins including using HEPA filter technology which is why I’m super excited to be reviewing the Hoover WindTunnel® Air Bagless Upright vacuum.

  • Carry Handle – on top of dirt cup so you can easily lift the lightweight vacuum for moving up or down stairs

My YouTube Review of the Hoover WindTunnel Air Bagless Upright vacuum

 

Hoover’s Allergy Defense Tips for Around the Home

  • Keep windows closed during peak pollen periods
  • Suck up pollen, dander and dust. Vacuuming is far more effective than sweeping at eliminating airborne particles – don’t forget spaces above cabinets, the tops of picture frames, wainscoting, windowsills, and baseboards.
  • Limit outdoor activity on high pollen index days (ratings available through your local news provider or The Weather Network)
  • Keep pollen build-up at bay by washing bedding every week in hot water
  • Wash pets regularly to decrease the amount of pollen that is tracked into your home by frisky pets
  • Keep family pets off furniture and remove them from bedrooms as much as possible to avoid dander deposits
