Guide to Proper Air Duct Cleaning
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association’s (NADCA) rule of thumb for consumers is that “if your air ducts look dirty, they probably are,” and that dirty HVAC systems should be inspected by reputable, certified air duct cleaning professionals like Single Source who are certified by NADCA. Below are some benefits of air duct cleaning and a video clip on how air ducts should be properly cleaned.
Ensure a Healthy Indoor Air Quality
Indoor air quality is one concern that homeowners have when they decide to investigate air duct cleaning services. In a typical six-room home, up to 40 pounds of dust is created annually through everyday living. Your heating and cooling system are the lungs of your home. The system taken air in and breathes air out.
Through normal occupation in a home, we generate a lot of contaminants and air pollutants, such as dander, dust, and chemicals.
These contaminants are pulled into the HVAC system and re-circulated 5 to 7 times per day, on average. Over time, this re-circulation causes a build-up of contaminants in the ductwork.
While dirty ducts don’t necessarily mean unhealthy air in your home, school or workplace, they may be contributing to larger health issues or harboring contaminants that could cause serious problems for people with respiratory health conditions, autoimmune disorders or some environmental allergies.
Enjoy Energy Savings
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 25 to 40 percent of the energy used for heating or cooling a home is wasted. Contaminants in the heating and cooling system cause it to work harder and shorten the life of your system. Although filters are used, the heating and cooling system still gets dirty through normal use.
When an HVAC system is clean, it doesn’t have to work as hard to maintain the temperature you desire. As a result, less energy is used, leading to improved cost-effectiveness.
