Preventing Heatstroke in Albany with Air Conditioner Service

Published on September 01, 2015
Air conditioning can help prevent heat stroke

Whether you’re taking in the outdoors with family and friends or you find yourself doing a job outside on a steamy day in Albany, the possibility of heatstroke shouldn’t be taken casually. While there are a variety of reasons that impact the likelihood of getting heatstroke, air conditioning is a great way to avoid heatstroke. That is just another reason it is so important to keep a well-maintained air conditioner with regular air conditioner service.

Heatstroke doesn’t discriminate. Anyone is capable of developing heatstroke under the right conditions, but there are a handful of things that you can do to help avoid it. Here are a handful of tips from the Mayo Clinic:

  1. Prevent sunburn. When you get sunburnt you hinder your body’s ability to cool itself off, so take a few minutes and apply a good sunscreen. It’s one of the simplest things we can do when we go outside and can make a huge difference.

  2. Wear loose, lightweight clothing. Avoid layers of clothing when possible, and make sure your clothes are loose-fitting and lightweight so that your body can cool off.

  3. Routine air conditioner service. Air conditioning can effectively begin to cool your body, which is why air conditioner service is also important. Take frequent breaks from being in the heat outside by going in an air conditioned area.

  4. Acclimatize your body. If the weather in Albany suddenly spikes, note the time you’re spending in the heat until your body has adjusted to it.

  5. Note any potential for an increased risk. Some medications or pre-existing conditions could increase the risk of heatstroke. If this is the case, be hyperaware how you are feeling in the heat and act rapidly if something doesn’t seem right. Signs include sudden fatigue or lack of sweat.

It’s not hard to be proactive and take every step you can in order to avoid heatstroke. Of course air conditioner service is the easiest way to make certain that your home is a comfortable place to be on those steamy days in Albany, so give Roland J. Down Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning a call today at 518-417-2938. Setting up air conditioner service can also be as convenient as using our online scheduling form.
