The Health Benefits of Air Conditioning in Providence

Air conditioning is a source of comfort, all season long, in homes and businesses throughout the Providence area.  But air conditioning also can relieve and in some cases control at the least the symptoms of such respiratory ailments like asthma, plus cold and flu-like symptoms.

Asthma, in general, is a growing problem in Rhode Island and throughout the US, especially among children.  Currently, it’s estimated that 11% of all Rhode Island children 17 and younger have been medically treated for asthma, and the problem continues to grow.

When looked at that way, home air conditioning becomes much more than a luxury or convenience:  it can be of enormous benefit in cleaning up the quality of your indoor air.  And that makes breathing easier for every member of your family.

Here are some additional benefits of whole-house air conditioning:

• Less Stress – When it’s hot and humid indoors, your blood pressure tends to rise and that, in turn, can cause more stress:  just what you don’t need.

• Illness Prevention – When stress levels are on the rise, your body’s immune system starts to break down, and that’s like welcome mat for colds, flus, and infections.

• Depression Relief – The hotter it is – indoors or outdoors – the more lethargic we become.  We tire more easily, become bored through prolonged periods of inactivity, all of which can bring about signs of depression.

• A Better Night’s Sleep – Who can sleep in a hot and muggy room on hot and muggy sheets and pillows?  With air conditioning, you’ll sleep far better and wake up refreshed and ready to take on your day with your usual vigor.

Central Air Conditioning & Ductless Air Systems in Providence

At Almeida Plumbing, heating & Air, we design and install central and ductless air systems.  Ductless systems are perfect for homes without ducts and in particular where ducts simply cannot be installed.  Like central air systems, they have outside condensing units but, in this case, they’re connected to wall blowers that noiselessly produce clean, filtered air in each room connected to the system.

Ductless systems are available for air conditioning only, or heating and air combined.
