Air duct cleaning

A safe, secure, and healthy living environment is important for you and your family. While you may work hard to keep your home clean and free of bacteria and germs, other dangers may lurk in areas in your home that you can’t reach. Bacteria, mold, and other harmful contaminants can hide in your heating and ventilation and cooling (HVAC) system. The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) states that indoor air has been found to be up to 70 percent more polluted than outdoor air. Over time, without regular cleanings, your ducts will become filled with dust, mites and other debris, which if left unchecked might become damp and form the perfect environment for mold growth. Failure to regularly clean and maintain your HVAC system can lead to an increase in health complications, particularly respiratory illnesses and allergies. Here at AAA Duct Cleaning, we use top of the line equipment and train employees extensively to get all that dirt out of your air as safely and as quickly as possible. We know how to keep you and your family healthy and safe every day!

If someone in your home suffers from allergies or recurring respiratory problems, then you should consider having your air ducts cleaned. If any of the concerns below apply to you, give AAA Duct Cleaning a call and we will be happy to make a professional assessment of your air duct cleaning needs.

Watch for the following signs that an air duct cleaning is overdue:

  • Dirty supply and return vent covers
  • Dark filtration lines on the walls, ceiling, or carpet surrounding the vents
  • Excessive dust in the home
  • Variance in temperature or air flow throughout the house
  • An increase in electricity needed to operate the HVAC system at desired settings. This may indicate that dirt and debris are blocking coils and/or ductwork, restricting flow and spiking utility bills
  • New furnace or ductwork
  • A recent remodeling/construction project (make sure your construction company does not use your air vents as a dumpster, duct cleaning is not removing a big construction particles from your lines – it is to clean the system from the dust)

Dirty duct systems are a major source of indoor air pollution. Airborne contaminants are pulled into the ducts every time the heating and cooling system runs. Over time, these contaminants stick to the inside of the ductwork, creating a layer that is an ideal breeding ground for mold, bacteria, fungi, and other microbes. Some particles drawn into the air ducts can also pass through fiberglass filters and infiltrate HVAC equipment, undermining the performance and energy efficiency of these systems, leading to higher repair and maintenance costs and a shorter service life.
Dirty ducts circulate dirty air, provide a breeding ground for a variety of microbial growth such as mold and bacteria, and can even shorten the life of your furnace and air conditioner.
