What can I do about my allergies at night?

What can I buy or do to keep my apartment cool at night? The ac, fan, and an open window mess w/my allergies.?

  • I have the worst allergies, but they've been especially bad because of the windy weather. Is there any kind of product that I can buy to stay cool at night without waking up feeling awful? It gets hot in my apartment!

  • Answer:

    Two things. Get an air cleaner. Here is info on a whole bunch at all difference prices. http://www.allergybegone.com/hepvacclean.html Then, get a better filter for your furnace/AC. 3M makes great ones and they are not expensive. They're available at Lowe's, Home Depot, Target, Walmart, etc. http://www.3m.com/us/home_leisure/filtrete/ Invest in them both and you will feel SO much better all summer. Also, if you have a pet that goes outside at all, remember---they pick up pollen, too. So when you bring your cat or dog in, you need to make sure you wipe them down really well. Not only will it help your allergies, but it helps theirs, too. They suffer just like we do.

I would suggest that you get HEPA filters for your a/c. Or perhaps consider getting an Ionic Breeze from Sharper Image. They are expensive but I only heard good things from them. Good Luck!

After your shower or bath at night wait till the tub cools down then put cold water in it . It brings the bathroom temp down a few degrees.

the only thing i can think of is to definately pitch a tent outside and sleep there. Its really low cost and the only thing you need is a tent which can be as low as 20 dollars. hope this helps good luck

Well, first of all NEVER EVER open windows. Keep the AC running at temp. set at your comfortable level, and leave it AUTOMATIC. On an Off will cost you more electric bills. Get an air purifier, I strongly recommend Air Source from Shaklee. The Air Source was developed by IGF, and meet all Government safety standard, plus so much more to it than just a machine like on other market. Change Air Filter often, and when you come in from out side, take off your clothes before step in to the room, to straight to take a quick shower to wash off pollen. Get rid of carpet if you have any, buy allergen proof bet sheets and pillow case and wash them every week. Leave pets out of your bed room if you have any. I do the SAME thing, and been doing the best I can. I am in Florida and this year has been the WORST ever in the history of the State.
