Duct Cleaning
Over time dust and contaminants, such as pollen and mold, can accumulate in your duct work. These can cause all kinds of irritations for you and your family. Average family life can generate up to 40 pounds of dust every year. This dust gets pulled into your air ducts, attaches to the walls, and builds up over time. While you cannot eliminate dust, pollen and mold, cleaning your ducts eliminates this build up and improves your indoor air quality.
How Often Should I get My Ducts Cleaned?
It is not necessary to get your ducts cleaned every year. The National Air Duct Cleaners Association advises cleaning your air ducts every 4-7 years. You should also get them cleaned if you've moved into a new home, built a new home, or completed a remodeling project. You may want to clean them more often if someone in your home has severe allergies or if you have lots of pets or a pet that sheds a lot.
Other signs that indicate that duct cleaning will be beneficial include having to dust or sweep more than usual, your energy bills are higher than normal, allergy symptoms appear, or there seems to be a reduction in air flow from your vents. If you suspect that mold exists in the ducts, if you see insects or other pests entering or exiting duct work, or you even see actual dust coming out of your air vents, you probably want to get your ducts inspected to see if they need to be cleaned.
What Does Duct Cleaning Involve?
Air vent and return grills are removed and cleaned. Ducts are brushed and vacuumed with machinery specially made for duct cleaning. Ducts are deodorized. Filters are cleaned or replaced. Blower motors, fan blades and coils are cleaned. Clean ducts greatly improve the air quality in your home.
