The old myth about a draft or cold air giving you a cold or flu is not based on scientific facts. Airborne viruses cause flu and colds. Coming in contact with the virus is the only way you will catch the disease.
But what if you notice that you are getting headaches when the AC is on? Is there a connection between the two?

Realized my furnace stopped working late last night and forecast called for very cold arctic air blast. Called my regular HVAC company that advertises 24 hour service to find that after 7 PM, there is only an answering service. Same with two more “24 hour service” companies. Then I called Thomas Hoffmann HVAC Company and Nick quickly answered, listened to my issue, gave me a quote and was on his way. Nick arrived soon, completely checked out my furnace, found the problem and did the repair. Because the problem was fairly minor, he even gave me an unexpected and very appreciated discount. Nick was professional, competent, and very engaging. Best emergency, after-hours experience I’ve ever had. Nick saved the day and gave me the peace of mind I needed.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Richard, for sharing your experience; we're glad Nick could provide you with prompt and professional service during such a challenging time. Your kind words mean a lot to us!

Furnace would not blow heat on Friday night and after leaving a few messages to several companies, Mr Hoffman called me back quickly and did a service call. Diagnosed the issue and was able to fix the problem. Will need a new unit soon, but nice not be without heat during the holidays! Quote and Invoice receipt done on the spot and detailed! Will use again for sure.

I was referred via home advisors. And I was so worried about the cost and the distance but Nick came and found my problem and fixed my problem and if I could I would shout-out to the world this is a honest and good company to hire. As a landlord over the road of 5 homes. I can call this company and trust that they will do the job and be honest. And I will not have to pay extra fees or be given a 3 week appointment Just because it's rental property. This is my go to company and I strongly recommend this company.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Annie, for your wonderful feedback! We're so glad to hear that Nick was able to address your concerns and provide you with the honest service you deserve. Your trust means the world to us, and we appreciate your strong recommendation!

My AC unit was located on the ground in a very undesirable area; in the direct path of my neighbor’s downspout.

Extremely satisfied with their work!

Why Your Air Conditioning Unit is Giving You a Headache
There are many possible reasons since headaches are symptoms of so many conditions. Here are some possible causes for headaches that are directly related to the use of air conditioning.
- Dry air may dehydrate you enough to give you a headache – Dehydration causes many problems in the body, including headaches. If your air conditioning unit is making the indoor air too dry, you may notice headaches, skin rashes, itchiness, and other signs that your body needs some moisture. One way to check if this is indeed the reason you have AC-related headaches, get a hygrometer – an instrument that measures the relative humidity in the air. The comfort level is between 40-60%, so going lower than that may mean that you need to add some humidity to the room. Buy a humidifier and drink plenty of water to prevent this side effect.
- The indoor air is too cold, giving you a brain freeze – “Brain freeze” is mainly associated with eating super cold foods like ice cream. When they touch the roof of your mouth, you may experience a throbbing headache that disappears quickly after. If the indoor air is too cold and you are breathing it through your mouth, it might actually give you a brain freeze. It is also not recommended to set the AC unit on a low level while you are in the house.
- Your headache is caused by mold – Unlike the previous possible causes, mold is indeed dangerous to your health. If your headache is caused by mold in the air, it could be followed by other health problems, like asthma, allergies, or breathing difficulties. If your air conditioning unit does not remove enough moisture from the air, it might become a breeding ground for bacteria and mold. Again, a hygrometer will tell you if the moisture level is too high. If this is the case, you will want to have your indoor air quality checked by a professional HVAC company.
