08 Oct Why Clean Your Air Duct?

Posted at 15:46h in Blog by

The air ducts in your home do a lot more than you realize. They are responsible for circulating hot and cold air across all the areas in your home, so every place has a consistent temperature, regardless of the external weather conditions.

 

There is also a flip side to this important functionality. Since the air you breathe inside your home passes through these air ducts, it is important to keep them clean always. In fact, according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, 80% of Americans are exposed to dust mites daily and 60% are exposed to pet dander, which can cause health problems particularly for people who suffer from asthma and allergies.

 

The dust and dirt get accumulated in the air ducts and impact the air that passes through it. This is why you have to clean your air duct at all times. Ideally, homeowners should have their air duct cleaning done by professionals, at least once every three to five years. If this doesn’t convince you yet, here are more reasons to call a professional duct cleaning company today.

 

Healthy Living Environment

 

Regular air duct repair and cleaning is essential to create a healthy indoor environment for you and your family. When you get it cleaned or repaired, if needed, you can rest assured that the dust that circulates within your home is eliminated. This is particularly important if you have small children, seniors, or anyone prone to respiratory illnesses.

 

Removes Unpleasant Odor

 

Many things around your house contribute to dust and allergens. Household products, cleaning items, pets, tobacco, mold, and even the food cooked inside your home circulate in your house through the air ducts. Over time, this creates an unpleasant smell and sometimes, if you use strong spices, they tend to stick on even the walls and furniture. So, detailed cleaning and air duct repair will help to remove this smell and can help you live in a home that smells fresh and clean.

 

Saves Electricity Cost

 

According to the U.S Department of Energy, 25% to 40% of the energy used for heating or cooling a home is wasted and that’s because contaminants build up in the HVAC system forcing it to work harder. When you regularly do air duct repair to fix any small leakages and clean it often, there will be no unwanted accumulation and the HVAC system will be in top working condition too. Over time, this will lead to big savings on your electricity bill.

 

Besides cleaning, you should also check your air duct for any minor problem, so you can get it repaired at the earliest. If needed, also consider underground air duct repair and cleaning from a professional cleaning company.

 

Thus, these are some of the reasons to have your air duct cleaned at the earliest.
