5 easy ways to avoid getting sick in AC

1. Keep the temperature of AC correct
Very cold AC first attacks your health. Its correct temperature should be kept up to 24-26 degrees. This does not shock the body and reduces the risk of disease.

2. Avoid the wind directly
If the air of air conditioner is coming directly on you, then headache and cold can occur. Always try to set the AC airflow up or on the side. This does not cause problems.

3. Keep servicing AC
If the air condition filter is dirty, then bacteria will make their home in it. They can spoil your health. Therefore, get servicing done every 5-6 months. This clears dirt and dust and mud and can cause problems like infection.

4. Open the room a little while
When we run the AC, the room is completely closed, which can cause oxygen level. Open the window or door for 5 minutes every 1-2 hours. This can prevent problems.

5. Stay hydrated
The air of AC draws moisture from the skin and body, so drink plenty of water throughout the day and if possible, use humidifier. This does not cause lack of water in the body and it saves many problems. Apart from this, set a timer while driving AC at night so that do not sleep in the cold all night, or make a balance of both fan and AC.
