Your Comfort System’s Impact On Your Sleep Quality
Sleep is an essential part of your life, and when it’s disrupted your schedule and your health can be negatively affected. One of the biggest factors in getting a good night’s sleep is your air conditioner. That’s right, your comfort system can have a profound effect on your quality of sleep, and without the right knowledge of how to control your comfort system for the best sleep possible, you could experience negative effects like sickness, stress, anxiety, and depression. Learn how you can control your comfort system’s impact on your sleep quality with these helpful tips.
Air Quality
With things like dirt, pet dander, pollen, and other allergens floating through the air in your home, your breathing could be disrupted during the night. Whether you have respiratory problems or not, having allergens in your home can lower your quality of sleep according to a study from Harvard.
Keeping your home clean and changing air filters regularly is a great way to start improving the air quality of your home, but the best option is investing in an air purification system from Garrison & Garrison. With an air purification system or air filtration system, you could eliminate up to 99.9% of allergens, viruses, and bacteria throughout every cubic inch of air your comfort system reaches. Clean air will improve your sleep and your health.
Humidity
Living in North Alabama means high humidity levels basically year round. But, that humidity doesn’t have to be inside our homes. Having high humidity levels in your home not only leads to mold and structural problems, but it also puts your home at higher risk of bed bug infestations and lowered sleep quality due to discomfort and more difficulty breathing, especially for those with asthma and other respiratory problems. If the humidity in your home is causing problems, a dehumidifier from Garrison & Garrison can help adequately control the humidity in your home.
Noise
Do you ever fall asleep to the sound of a noisy comfort system? The answer to that is likely “no.” Anything louder than a light hum coming from your air conditioning system will be disruptive to your sleep, and to the cooling process of your comfort system. Louder noises could indicate your system is in need of a repair. If your system is 10+ years old, it may be time for a replacement. If you hear squealing, gurgling, hissing, or any other unpleasant noises, call Garrison & Garrison for a maintenance check.
Temperature
The temperature of your home might have the MOST to do with getting optimal sleep. Whether you like it extra cold, or on the warmer side, your comfort system must be working properly for the best quality of sleep. Make sure your room is at the perfect temperature with a ductless mini-split system or a zoning system from Garrison & Garrison. These options allow you to have optimum control over the temperature in your bedroom at all times.
