Home Appliances helping with Allergy Sufferers

20/4/2017
Miele

Next week is Allergy Awareness Week, used to highlight the problems and symptoms associated with allergies. Allergies can be triggered by lots of things including plants, food, chemicals or reactions to domestic pets.

According to Allergy UK “pets are the second most important cause of allergy in the home with 50 % of asthmatic children sensitised to the allergens of cats and 40% to dog allergen”. Sufferers of this type of allergy can experience all sorts of symptoms. They include coughing and wheezing, rashes, itchy or red eyes and cold like symptoms. This is caused when sufferers are exposed to areas which have been in contact with pets or pet hair. So this makes keeping on top of cleaning maintenance around your home even more essential.

These days, technology is created with allergy sufferers in mind. There are now some handy tools that can be utilised in defence against allergies and some are included in popular household appliances.

Washing machines are also helping out allergy sufferers. Miele have created an additional option called AllergoWash. Select  through the programme manager and create your own tailor made wash by selecting the additional extras. AllergoWash lengthens the temperature holding time of a wash. So it will keep at the selected 60°C for a full 30 minutes rather than allowing it to cool off like a standard wash programme. By holding the temperature hotter for longer, it helps to kill nasty dust mites lurking in your laundry. These are what can cause allergy sufferers discomfort.
