Spring is here and that means so are those pesky allergies! We want to help you stay allergy-free when you’re behind the wheel and this week’s blog will be your guide to allergy-proofing your ride. Whether you plan to take on all of these tasks or just a few, we encourage you to do them before pollen season officially hits and you’re crippled with your seasonal allergies. Check out our guide below and stop in to see our team if you’re ready to upgrade into a brand new Kia this month!
Destination Kia’s Allergy Proofing Tips:
Clean Your Carpets:
- Your vehicle’s carpeting is known to be a home for allergens, dirt, dust, and all things nasty. The first way to allergy-proof your ride is to make sure your carpeting (and seating) is clean and dry. If you want to go the extra step, invest in all-season floor mats to make this process easier or to keep allergens from building up in your vehicle’s carpeting.
Keep Your Windows Closed:
- Pollen season is quickly approaching and that means you’ll be sneezing in no time. Let’s cut back on those by keeping our windows closed when pollen is at its peak. We also recommend using only the recirculating cycle if or when you need to use your air conditioner in order to avoid pollen from entering your vehicle’s cabin.
Avoid Irritants:
- Many drivers think cleaning their vehicle with great smelling products or adding a new air freshener to their vehicle will make all those bad smells go away. And in some cases, it will. But those fragrances can actually irritate you and could lead to jump-starting those allergies or making them worse. So, avoid all that and choose something that will not irritate your nasal membranes.
Change Your Air Filters
- Air filters are sometimes the most forgotten about thing in a person’s vehicle. While air filters are the barrier between you and the pollen inside your cabin, it is crucial to swap out your air filters at the start of each season for plenty of reasons. We recommend changing at the beginning of the spring season and checking back again towards the end to ensure smart, clean breathing when you’re inside your vehicle.
