Nobody enjoys mold, dirt, dust, and other foreign materials floating around the property. Whenever you hear anyone speak of “indoor air quality,” these are the things that hinder it, even to the point of increased respiratory difficulty. Therefore, if you’d like to avoid breathing trouble and not worry about what’s stuck in your ventilation, we recommend making duct cleaning a priority.
Important reasons to schedule air duct cleaning periodically
Knock out the Obvious Chunks of Dirt/Debris
Just like when you clean your carpets, the first reason is to gather up the larger, visible stuff like dirt, pet dander, and debris. Once you do this, you can go a step further and sanitize to eliminate bacteria.
Support Your HVAC Equipment
Air conditioners and furnaces always run better when you free them from obstructions. It’s not much different from cleaning the lint collector on our dryer. Don’t forget that when you do this, it’ll allow the machinery to operate more efficiently, lowering your energy consumption and utility bills.
Reduce Mold/Mildew Volume
In dark areas (like vents, attics, basements), mold can grow almost completely undetected. This gets worse when you factor in the humid climate here in Florida. If you can stay on top of preventative upkeep, including air duct cleaning, then you’ll have the best chance of reducing or eliminating mold/mildew overgrowth.
Help Allergy Sufferers
Many Americans are allergic to something, and airborne impurities are a very common culprit. If you live with somebody who sneezes or coughs often, there are ways to remedy the problem. This includes dusting your surfaces, cleaning ceiling fan blades, sweeping/mopping floors, and sanitizing ventilation equipment.
Reduce Fire Hazards
This is also a big reason to do dryer vent cleaning. Between overworked dryers and HVAC equipment, they comprise the lion’s share of fire potential in residential homes. By cleaning ducts and vents to keep the airflow moving, you remove lots of pressure from their electrical components, which can overheat if driven to the extreme.
Improve your Indoor Air Quality
Those are some of the best advantages to frequent air duct cleaning. Fortunately, you don’t have to go to the hassle of doing this yourself.
