Why Have Your Air Ducts Cleaned?

If everything in your home is working properly, you probably don’t think about your air ducts very often. However, you should be conducting regular air duct cleaning as you go through your yearly home improvement checklist. A thorough professional air duct cleaning service can help your home function better and your household feel better, but many people forget about this vital service. Here are a few reasons why you should add booking an air duct cleaning to your to-do list.

Cleaning Your Air Ducts Helps Your Heating and Cooling Systems Work Better

 

In our beautiful state of Nevada, the most important appliance or system in every home is the air conditioner. After all, how else will you get through those brutally hot Nevada summers ? However, dirty or clogged air ducts could be impacting the way that your system works. When your air ducts haven’t been cleaned in a while, the flow of air through your home is impeded. That means that cool air from a central air conditioning system cannot cool your home as well. Not only does this make living in your house less pleasant, but it also costs you more money as your inefficient cooling system wastes more electricity. During the cleaning process and during inspection, we may also discover poor airflow due restricted or bent ducting that can be making your airducts inefficient. This information is passed on to you at no extra cost. To keep cool or warm, air duct cleaning is a hidden trick you can do to maximize the efficiency of your air/heating.

It Will Make Your Living Environment More Pleasant

Your air duct system is vital because it allows fresh air to circulate in and removes stale air. However, when the system hasn’t been cleaned, dust and other particles live in the air ducts and enter the fresh air that should be circulating in your home. The result is stale breathing air and more dust and dander landing on your furniture. In some occasions you may even find dead rodents and droppings inside your air ducts which is a major concern for odors and viruses. If we come across any we make sure to notify you so it can be addressed. When you clean your air ducts, the air is cleaner, and the rest of your house is cleaner. Plus, you make it easier for your filtration system to remove bad odors from your home, which is particularly important if you have pets.

Health Factors

Finally, one of the most important reasons to regularly book air duct cleaning services is your family’s well-being. Dust is not the only thing that circulates in your home once air ducts get dirty. They will also send mildew, mold, bacteria, and even pollen into your precious house. When air ducts allow pollutants into your home, everyone has a bit more trouble breathing. However, the problem is even worse for people with chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma or allergies. If someone in your home is struggling with more severe episodes than usual, it’s worth booking an air duct cleaning.

Final Thoughts

Your air ducts are probably not the first items you think of when you try to remember which parts of your home need cleaning, but regularly cleaning them can make your central air conditioning more efficient and your home environment healthier and more pleasant. Book your cleaning today!
