I thought my parents did not like me when they insisted that I should not get a cat when I was younger, every anniversary I wished for a pet or a pet because I was willing to take care of it however they could not hear of it. The moment I got my own apartment, I could wait to get myself a cat friend, and that is when Jake came into my life. The first few months were perfect. He showered me with lots of affection and always knew how to soothe me whenever I felt down! Jake was the perfect companion and friend and I finally knew how much I had missed all those years. However, after the seventh month, things began to go terribly wrong. The air quality in my household seemed to get worse and I would sneeze continuously. This happened despite all my efforts to keep the house clean. After several trips to the hospital with zero improvements, doctor Judy asked me if I had gotten a pet. I confirmed this and she asked me to call my HVAC supplier instantly. She suspected that the cat could have affected the cooling and heating unit’s air purification efficiency. I dialed the HVAC tech’s number she shared with me and he was at my doorstep the next afternoon. He went straight to the HVAC unit and began to scrutinize the HVAC equipment. Most of the things were alright despite not having had a HVAC tune-up session in a while. The only issue was that there was a problem with the air circulation in the house. Jake’s fur had jammed the filter that barely no air passed through. The air being blown into my house was therefore loaded with dust, and allergens hence the unending allergic reactions. The HVAC professional recommended that I replace my filters and get an UV air purifier if I still wanted to keep my pet. He also showed me how to change the filters officially, in addition to officially vacuuming the carpets and rugs in my house.
