WHY
SHOULD I CLEAN MY AIR DUCTS?
Dirty air ducts have been identified as a major source of indoor air
pollution. Your air duct system is an
ideal breeding ground for bacteria, mold, mildew, fungi, and other health
threatening organisms. Dust mites don’t typically live and breed in the ducts
themselves. However, dirty air ducts distribute the primary food
source for dust mites — dust.
WILL MY HOUSE BE LESS
DUSTY AFTER YOU CLEAN THE AIR DUCTS?
Yes, the inside of your ductwork is the equivalent of an extra room in your
home that never gets dusted or vacuumed. When the furnace or air conditioner
fan turns on, dust from the ductwork gets churned up and blown into the rooms
of your home.
WILL AIR DUCT CLEANING
HELP MY ALLERGIES?
Many people are allergic to dust mite waste. Dust mites feed on debris
found in ductwork. Remove the debris and you remove their food. Also, by
greatly reducing particulate debris in your ducts, there are less dust
particles and potential allergens in the air to aggravate those with
respiratory illnesses.
I LIVE IN A NEW HOME. DO
I STILL NEED YOUR SERVICE?
Absolutely! Up to 50% of air duct system cleaning is done in homes that are
less than five years old. During construction, the ductwork is wide open and
the air handler is running many times without a filter. During this time,
construction debris such as pieces of plaster, drywall, wood, dust, insects and
insulation, are accumulated in the ductwork.
HOW
WILL I KNOW IF MY AIR DUCTS NEED TO BE CLEANED?
By
using a video inspection system, our technicians can show you how dirty your system is. It can also show
you the “before” and “after” of your duct cleaning, so you know that it’s a job
well done.
WILL YOUR EQUIPMENT WORK IN MY AIR DUCTS?
The equipment we use to clean the air ducts
is effective in all types of air duct construction, including flex duct, round
metal ducts, square metal ducts, and fiberboard. It can easily accommodate
right angle turns and multiple bends found in most types of duct systems.
