AIR DUCT CLEANING AND VIDEO INSPECTION

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines air duct cleaning as cleaning of heating and cooling system components including registers, supply and return lines, grilles, diffusers, heat exchangers, coils, drip pans, fan motor and housing, and the air handling unit.  Duct cleaning can promote efficiency in your heating and cooling system.

To Have or Not to Have (your ducts cleaned)…

• Do you suffer from allergies, asthma, or have symptoms of other illnesses exacerbated by being indoors?

• Do you have pets?

• Are there smokers in the home or building?

• Have you moved into a new occupancy?

• Have you moved into a newly built home?

• Is there visible growth (i.e. mold) inside your duct surfaces?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you may experience several benefits from having your ducts cleaned.  New homes as well as older homes can collect debris in their HVAC system.  A new build may have drywall dust, wood chips, and other contaminants unexpectedly in the system.

Since we spend 90% of our time indoors, and indoor air quality is 2-5 times worse indoors than outdoors, duct cleaning may improve the air quality, and in turn, your health.  Ducts do get dirty over time, and should occasionally be cleaned. HVAC systems act as collection “houses” for particles and debris that may have a negative impact on health, such as dust mites, mold spores, bacteria, dust, and fungi.

Would you like a view of your ducts?  Our Video Inspection System can show you, and can also show you end results of cleaning, confirming the job was done thoroughly.

HAVE YOU RECEIVED A THOROUGH CLEANING?

During our air duct cleaning process, vent covers are removed and cleaned.  Each duct is cleaned from the grill back to the main unit (from the farthest vent and working toward the main unit).  We offer an optional cleaning for the system blower, fan coils, and drain pan.

MEASURES FOR PREVENTING DUCT CONTAMINATION

• Use the highest efficiency air filters recommended.  Change them regularly, and change them if they become clogged.

• During construction, seal off supply and return registers.  Do not operate HVAC system until construction debris is cleaned up.

• Dust and vacuum frequently.

• Control moisture to prevent ducts from becoming wet (can lead to mold growth)
