    Air Duct Cleaning Can Help to Improve Indoor Air Quality

    Homeowners who are concerned about indoor air quality routinely schedule air duct cleaning once a year. Did you know the In the average 1200 sq ft home accumulates up to 40 pounds of dust in their heating and air_duct_cleaningcooling systems air ducts annually? Yes, 40 lbs of dust is created annually through everyday living. Think of it this way, your air conditioning system is the respiratory system of your home. Your heating and cooling system takes air in and breathes air out.Through normal occupation in a home, we generate a great deal of contaminants and air pollutants, such as dander, dust, and chemicals. These contaminants are pulled into the air conditioning 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 duct work.

    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.


    Air Duct Cleaning Can Help to Improve Indoor Air Quality

    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, increase energy costs, and potentially 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. Schedule your air duct cleaning or duct sanitizing appointment online and save 15%


    Indoor Air Quality Concerns

    All of us face a variety of risks to our health as we go about our day-to-day lives. Driving in cars, flying in planes, engaging in recreational activities, and being exposed to environmental pollutants all pose varying degrees of microbial growth and virusesrisk. Some risks are simply unavoidable. Some we choose to accept because to do otherwise would restrict our ability to lead our lives the way we want. And some are risks we might decide to avoid if we had the opportunity to make informed choices. Indoor air pollution is one risk that you can do something about.

    In the last several years, a growing body of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities. Other research indicates that people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. Thus, for many people, the risks to health may be greater due to exposure to air pollution indoors than outdoors.

    In addition, people who may be exposed to indoor air pollutants for the longest periods of time are often those most susceptible to the effects of indoor air pollution. Such groups include the young, the elderly, and the chronically ill, especially those suffering from respiratory or cardiovascular disease.
