Ducts are the passages or conduits that the air conditioning system in your home uses to deliver air, heating, and ventilation. This includes return air, supply air, and exhaust air. Ducts are also commonly used to deliver ventilation into the building.
The air ducts in your house are always important to take care of, but they don’t typically get the attention that other parts do. Professional duct cleaning improves air quality by eliminating common allergens as well as viruses and bacteria. Pollutants that enter the home both from outdoors and indoor activities such as cooking, cleaning, smoking, or just moving around can cause greater exposure to dirty air ducts.
Not only does cleaning your air ducts provide cleaner air, but it also improves the efficiency of your HVAC system. Research suggests that cleaning these heating and cooling system components may improve the efficiency of your system, resulting in a longer operating life, as well as some energy and maintenance cost savings.
Duct systems coated in dust and debris have restricted airflow, which makes it difficult to cool or heat your building. Clean ducts push air more efficiently, which in turn can also lower your energy bills.
