As a result, during the summer months, when temperatures are higher, Alternaria spore counts tend to be highest in temperate regions. Individuals allergic to this mould may experience symptoms upon inhalation of its spores.\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>Alternaria is a genus of filamentous fungi that includes numerous species. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canr.msu.edu\/resources\/alternaria\">These fungi are common plant pathogens known to cause various plant diseases<\/a><\/span>. They can affect various plants, including crops, vegetables, fruits, and ornamental plants. Alternaria species are particularly notorious for causing leaf spot diseases, which can lead to significant yield losses in agricultural settings. However, it can also be found indoors, particularly in humid areas like bathrooms and air conditioners. Indoor growth of Alternaria is often associated with the production of large brown spores, which are well-known triggers for allergies and asthma. However, indoor concentrations of this mould are typically influenced by outdoor levels. If outdoor spore counts are substantial, indoor levels will likely be high.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>Alternaria flourishes at temperatures ranging from 20 to 25 degrees Celsius (68 to 77 degrees Fahrenheit) but can survive within a broader range of 1 to 35 degrees Celsius (roughly 34 to 95 degrees Fahrenheit). Sensitisation rates to this mould vary across different studies, but approximately 5 per cent of individuals are affected by an allergy to Alternaria, with a strong correlation to allergic rhinitis (commonly known as hay fever) and asthma. The prevalence of sensitisation in children varies significantly, ranging from less than 1 per cent in Austria to 50 per cent in Arizona in the United States. In a comprehensive study conducted on children with asthma living in inner cities across the United States, Alternaria was identified as the most common mould allergen, eliciting a positive skin test in 38 per cent of participants. Allergy to Alternaria, combined with exposure to the mould, serves as a risk factor for developing and worsening allergic diseases, including allergic rhinitis and asthma, and can lead to severe asthma exacerbations.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a03e925 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a03e925\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2de8fc9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2de8fc9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Alternaria: a Common Air Conditioner Mould  Causes<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1937b7b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1937b7b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bd6b733 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"bd6b733\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"412\" src=\"https:\/\/orapiasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Can-you-get-sick-from-mould-in-air-conditioner-1024x414.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-27960\" alt=\"Can you get sick from mould in air conditioner\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orapiasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/Can-you-get-sick-from-mould-in-air-conditioner-1024x414.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orapiasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/Can-you-get-sick-from-mould-in-air-conditioner-300x121.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orapiasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/Can-you-get-sick-from-mould-in-air-conditioner-768x310.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orapiasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/Can-you-get-sick-from-mould-in-air-conditioner-510x206.jpg 510w, https:\/\/orapiasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/Can-you-get-sick-from-mould-in-air-conditioner.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-308b163 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"308b163\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6206aa2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6206aa2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div>Alternaria can be considered one of the most common aircon moulds.

Alternaria thrives in moist environments. The relative humidity should be kept high, ideally around 80 to 95%, to provide sufficient moisture for spore germination and hyphal growth.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Alternaria grows between a broad temperature range of 1\u00b0C to 35\u00b0C degrees.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Alternaria can grow in both light and dark conditions.

In kitchens, after cooking or cleaning, thoroughly dry the entire place to avoid any water residue, which can promote Alternaria growth in the aircon because if Alternaria spreads to the AC, you run the risk of spreading the aircon mould to every part of the building. To prevent this, follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Begin by brushing the filters to remove any loose dust and debris.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Apply COILTRON to the filters, ensuring they are thoroughly sprayed. Allow the product to sit for 5 minutes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Wash the filters to remove the COILTRON product.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Wipe the lid meticulously, paying attention to areas where green-brown alternaria might be present.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Spray the top of the unit to eliminate any debris.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Use COILTRON to clean the coil and fin. Start from the top and work your way down, as the product will naturally move downwards. Since COILTRON is a no-rinse formula, there is no need to rinse it off. Additionally, it leaves no residue when dry, which is crucial for cleaning coils and fins.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The fan, which spans the length of the unit, should be sprayed directly with COILTRON.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Use a rag or microfiber cloth to collect any excess product that misses the drain.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Reinstall the previously cleaned filters.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Note that it is recommended to wash COILTRON from all non-metallic surfaces. However, if spraying it on metallic surfaces, it is advisable to leave it, as COILTRON leaves a protective film that prevents corrosion and mould on filters and metal frames.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fd55c95 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"fd55c95\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-971b6c3 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"971b6c3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0d0bb2c elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0d0bb2c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/orapiasia.com\/zh\/product\/spotkleen-2-carpet-stain-remover-oil-stains\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"1020\" src=\"https:\/\/orapiasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/A9031-1024x1024.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5625\" alt=\"COILTRON \u2014 9031 \u2014Cooler &amp;
