BENEFITS OF AIR DUCT CLEANING
2/18/2022 (Permalink)
There’s nothing quite as satisfying as clean house, but what if your home isn’t as pick and span as you thought it was? Your floors are spotless and even your baseboards are bright and dust-free, but what about the areas you do not see every day? HVAC ducts, the metal conduits that pipe cooled or heated air through your house, are a favorite hiding place of dust, dirt and other allergens. Honestly, though, it makes more sense to think about what happens when you don’t keep air ducts clean. You see, all dust and other particulate matter that your air filter doesn’t catch accumulates on the walls of your air ducts. It floats around in the air you breathe, lands on all your indoor surfaces and causes all sorts of other problems.
Good news, the problems can all be prevented by cleaning your air ducts regularly. Below are the benefits of air duct cleaning.
- Cleaner Indoor Air
Your air filter can’t stop 100 percent of the contaminants in your indoor air. After all, if the air can get past it, that means that very small contaminants can get through as well.
Some matter gets trapped in your air duct walls. If there’s no wall space left, the dust, germs and other debris come through the vents in your house. Cleaning all the dust from your air ducts keeps it from circulating in your home, at least for a few months.
- Reduce Dust
Dust will land on your tables, counters and other indoor surfaces. You will need to vacuum your home much more frequently when you don’t clean your air ducts.
- Reduce Odors
Molds or rodents are usually caused by disgusting in your air ducts. Cleaning your air duct will make your house smell fresh again.
- Reduce your energy bill
When HVAC is overworked due to the constricted airflow, it uses more energy which increases your electricity bill. The house wont heat or cool as well when the airflow is constricted. Cleaning your air duct ensures the maximum efficiency of your HVAC system.
