The heating and cooling ductwork is a perfect breeding ground for
germs, bacteria, mold, fungus and dust mites. Did you know a single mold spore
could more than quadruple in size overnight? Removing these contaminants from
the air duct system is one of the best ways to control or reduce indoor air
pollution in your home.
Does anyone in your home suffer from allergies, asthma, hay
fever, or sinus congestion? You may be a prime candidate for having your
air duct system cleaned. Health experts believe one in every six people
who suffer from allergies do so as a result of poor indoor air quality directly
related to dirty air duct systems. “Sick” homes make for “Sick”
inhabitants.
There are other good reasons to having your air ducts cleaned. Dust
and dirt in the heating and cooling system is a primary cause of system
failures. Proper cleaning helps eliminate system failures and untimely service
calls. A clean system also can reduce your heating and cooling bills by as much
as 20%.
Depending on your home and lifestyle, air ducts should be cleaned
on an annual basis or every other year. We use a very high CFM vacuum specially
designed to remove the contaminants in your air ducts. The tools use a whipping
action to break loose all the debris in the duct system. The dust and dirt is
then drawn out by the powerful vacuum. We also treat the ducting with a
disinfectant to help sanitize and deodorize your system.
