Homeowners across the country are making their spring cleaning to do lists. Have you considered adding air duct and vent cleaning to your list? It’s often an overlooked home maintenance task. Considering that 40,000 dust mites can thrive in only one ounce of dust! The EPA estimates that indoor air quality can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air and according to the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA), the average six-room house collects 40 pounds of dirt, dust and allergens in its air ducts each year!
Benefits of Having Your Air Ducts Cleaned
The air ducts and vents affect the quality of the air in your home and dirty air ducts cause the air quality in your home to deteriorate. If they are dirty, problems for those who suffer from allergies, asthma and other respiratory problems have a harder time breathing. Having the air ducts cleaned in the spring is very important for the health of you family and the way your HVAC system works. When the air ducts and vents are dirty, it will cause layers of dust, pollen, pet dander and mold spores to circulate through the home each time the HVAC system runs. These airborne particles can be eliminated and bring a significant improvement to the air quality of the home with regular cleanings. You should make sure you change the air filters on a regular basis, more so when the cooling or heating system runs. Clean air filters will help with the indoor air quality. When the heating and air conditioning system has to push cool or heated air past layers of dust and debris, it has to work harder. When the air ducts are cleaned, it removes all this dust and debris and makes it easier for the HVAC system to work and reduces the wear and tear. This will lead to less energy consumption which will be good on your wallet too.
