The air duct cleaning is a simple but important maintenance activity for your home. It is the efficient and mess-free vacuuming of your air duct system to promote cleaner air circulation. If not properly installed, operated, and maintained, your duct system can become contaminated with dust, pollen, and other particles. Moisture from leaks or faulty seals can also encourage microbiological growth such as mold.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

The EPA recommends you have your air ducts cleaned if: there is visible mold growth in your air ducts, there is significant build up of dust\/particles in the ducts, you notice frequent dust and particles in the air, or you notice a musty smell when the furnace is on. You might also experience a consistently dusty home, wake up with unexplained allergy-like symptoms, or spot black filtration lines around the edges of your carpeting.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

Dirty ducts can exacerbate pre-existing health concerns, including respiratory health conditions, autoimmune disorders, and environmental allergies. Tests have shown that air duct cleanings can remove over 50% of the dust in your home. The removal of these potentially harmful contaminants in your air duct system and air vents can potentially improve the air quality of your home, improving your family’s overall respiratory health.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

Yes! Clean ducts save energy. According to the US Department of Energy, 25-40% of the energy used for heating or cooling a home is wasted. Contaminants in your heating and cooling system can shorten the life of your HVAC system by causing it to work overtime. Clean and healthy systems are less likely to break down and have an overall longer lifespan.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
