ORLANDO, FL, March 17, 2014 (Press-News.org) With the record lows Florida has seen this winter, it's entirely understandable if you haven't thought about maintaining your air conditioner yet. However, springtime is approaching quickly and American Air & Heat recommends that you schedule your regular air conditioner maintenance before the warmer weather finally hits.
Floridians know that once spring weather arrives, it's time to turn on the air conditioning and leave it blasting until late into the fall. That kind of run time puts incredible pressure and strain on your Orlando air conditioning unit. If your unit is not prepared for it, you can be setting yourself up for a catastrophic and sweltering failure mid-summer.
To avoid a mid-summer AC meltdown, the experts at Orlando HVAC service American Air & Heat recommend that you have your AC unit inspected and serviced before you need to turn it on for spring.
During this regular maintenance, the HVAC experts will ensure that all parts of your air conditioning unit are working properly and will be able to withstand all of the use they will receive during the hot Florida summer.
Scheduling your annual air conditioning maintenance before springtime also helps to ensure that your entire climate control system is clear of allergens before you begin using it again.
"Many home cooling systems accumulate dust and other allergens while they are out of use during the winter," says Matt Boni, President of American Air & Heat. "This makes the initial spring allergy season worse by inserting and circulating allergens through your home when the AC kicks on."

Many parents have infant-feeding, TV, and activity practices which may increase obesity risk
2014-03-17
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Most of the parents included in a new study reported some infant feeding and activity behaviors that are believed to increase a child's risk for obesity later in life.
The study found that many of these "obesogenic" behaviors were highly prevalent among all of the parents, regardless of their race or ethnicity. Black parents were more likely to put children to bed with a bottle and report TV watching, while Hispanic parents were more likely to encourage children to finish feeding and to report less "tummy time" – when a baby lays on her belly to play ...
Study: Colon cancer incidence rates decreasing steeply in older Americans
2014-03-17
WASHINGTON, D.C. – March 17, 2014–Colon cancer incidence rates have dropped 30 percent in the U.S. in the last 10 years among adults 50 and older due to the widespread uptake of colonoscopy, with the largest decrease in people over age 65. Colonoscopy use has almost tripled among adults ages 50 to 75, from 19 percent in 2000 to 55 percent in 2010.
The findings come from Colorectal Cancer Statistics, 2014, published in the March/April issue of CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians. The article and its companion report, Colorectal Cancer Facts & Figures, were released today ...
Study identifies most common, costly reasons for mental health hospitalizations for kids
2014-03-17
Nearly one in 10 children are hospitalized with a primary diagnosis of a mental health condition, and depression alone accounts for $1.33 billion in hospital charges annually, according to a new analysis led by UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital.
The study is the first to examine frequency and costs associated with specific inpatient mental health diagnoses for children, and is a step towards creating meaningful measures of the quality of pediatric hospital care.
"This is the first paper to give a clear picture of the mental health reasons kids are admitted to hospitals ...
Major 'third-hand smoke' compound causes DNA damage -- and potentially cancer
2014-03-17
DALLAS, March 16, 2014 — Leftover cigarette smoke that clings to walls and furniture is a smelly nuisance, but now research suggests that it could pose a far more serious threat, especially to young children who put toys and other smoke-affected items into their mouths. Scientists reported today that one compound from this "third-hand smoke," which forms when second-hand smoke reacts with indoor air, damages DNA and sticks to it in a way that could potentially cause cancer.

Three-quarters of people with seasonal and pandemic flu have no symptoms
2014-03-17
Around 1 in 5 of the population were infected in both recent outbreaks of seasonal flu and the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic, but just 23% of these infections caused symptoms, and only 17% of people were ill enough to consult their doctor.
These findings come from a major new community-based study comparing the burden and severity of seasonal and pandemic influenza in England over 5 years, published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine journal.
"Reported cases of influenza represent the tip of a large clinical and subclinical iceberg that is mainly invisible to national ...
Potentially safer, greener alternative to BPA could come from papermaking waste
2014-03-16
DALLAS, March 16, 2014 — A waste product from making paper could yield a safer, greener alternative to the potentially harmful chemical BPA, now banned from baby bottles but still used in many plastics. Scientists made the BPA alternative from lignin, the compound that gives wood its
strength, and they say it could be ready for the market within five years.
They described the research here today in one of the more than 10,000 presentations at the 247th National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society (ACS), the world's largest scientific society, taking ...
High-tech materials purify water with sunlight
2014-03-16
DALLAS, March 16, 2014 — Sunlight plus a common titanium pigment might be the secret recipe for ridding pharmaceuticals, pesticides and other potentially harmful pollutants from drinking water. Scientists combined several high-tech components to make an easy-to-use water purifier that could
work with the world's most basic form of energy, sunlight, in a boon for water purification in rural areas or developing countries.
The talk was one of more than 10,000 presentations at the 247th National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society (ACS), the world's largest ...
Better-tasting reduced-fat desserts, dressings, sauces: Coming soon?
2014-03-16
DALLAS, March 16, 2014 — Adjusting the calcium level and acidity could be the key to developing new better-tasting, more eye-appealing and creamier reduced-fat sauces, desserts and salad dressings that could be on the market soon, researchers reported here today.
To date, a major problem with removing fat from these accompaniments is that in addition to reducing calories, it can negatively affect the flavor, appearance and texture, they said. But based on recent research it may not be too long before new, improved, lower-fat foods appear in grocery stores, the researchers ...
