AIR CONDITIONERS---DO THEY REALLY COOL OR HARM USERS?

How was your day? cool? hot?For me the sun was really hot. You must had your own share of the the scotching heat of the sun. I can imagine how relieved you must be to sit down while you enjoy the cool air from your Air Conditioner. It is just like a cold bath after a tiresome journey.

HOW AIR CONDITIONERS WORK
The air conditioner blows or moves heat from your house to the outside, thereby cooling your home. The cooling of your home is achieved when heat is pulled out from the air and blowing it over some cold pipes called evaporator pipes.

For obvious reasons many of us enjoy and make use of the Air conditioner. I do too.
Many cannot do without Air conditioner. They have it at home, in the car, in the office and when they are back from work, they continue in that routine of constantly exposing themselves to Air Conditioner .

Little did they know that there are some health risks associated with the use of AC.
While this post is not suggesting a total discontinuation of the use of AC, it sheds light into what constantly using it can result to.
REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER REDUCING EXPOSURE TO AIR CONDITIONER

TIREDNESS
There has been a report that people who work in air conditioned offices or environment tend to suffer from fatigue, dizziness and serious headaches. I am no exception. I get back home from work fagged out everyday.

INFECTION
Your air conditioner can be a breeding site for bacteria and fungus. Mold also can grow in there especially when moisture get built up in the coils. When this happens, the person will definitely have breathing issues. some people may not know that their air conditioner can be cleaned and filter changed.A constant cleaning of the AC can help reduce this.

CONTAMINATED AIR
Air conditioner does not contain fresh air, but blows and circulates old air. So what happens in a large office with many staff and customers, a bank, for instance? If someone has cold or catarrh, from what i learned in my school about how catarrh spreads, as the carrier sneezes, the catarrh virus is already in the air. Anyone who breathes in such air contracts the catarrh. so having a catarrh carrier with you in the a shared room with air conditioner will expose you and yet more people to the virus.

WEAK IMMUNITY
Those who use AC more often than not visit the Doctor more, especially for respiratory problems. AC provides an artificial change in temperature. This may result in a weak immunity and when the sufferer finds him/her self in a hot weather, they fall sick

DRY SKIN
Air conditioner provides hot air and this makes the skin cells look so dry and making it look dull and damaged

INABILITY TO RESIST HEAT
The more you spend time with your air conditioner, the more intolerable you become to hot weather. This can lead to heat-related deaths such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Sadly this may continue to be on the increase owing to climate change in some areas.

SAFETY TIPS
1 . Ensure that you clean your air conditioner and replace or change filter. some may not know that it is possible to clean up the air. Pls clean it

1. Do not switch on the air conditioner immediately you get in from a hot weather.

2. when you switch on the air conditioner, allow it to run in the fan mode first

AIR CONDITIONER ON YOUR SKIN
Before now, it is believe that those who do not experience sunlight but are under AC every 24/7 have a finer, glowing skin. Do you feel like that? I felt so too. But the truth is that exposing yourself to air conditioner regularly makes your skin to itch and sometimes it flakes and comes with other skin diseases. More research about that too is not a bad idea.

IS IT BAD THEN TO SLEEP WITH AIR CONDITIONER?
For some, their bedroom is as cold as a cold room. However the air from AC is dry. Its about personal choice anyways but one can be on guard especially not exposing little children to it.

I hope i have not condemned the use of Air conditioner? That wasnt my intention. At least for those who suffer from asthma, AC filters the dust in the air for them. Readers just strike a balance.
