AIR DUCT SERVICES
Air Duct Cleaning can easily be ignored since it is out of sight. However, neglecting to maintain the cleanliness of your air ducts can lead to many unwanted monetary and health concerns. According to the NADCA, up to 40lbs of dust is accumulated annually in a typical household! Your heating and cooling system is the lungs of your home so it is important to maintain a healthy check-up.
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. Maintenance could save you hundreds and sometimes thousands.

REPAIR/REPLACEThere are a number of factors that determine whether you can clean or need to repair your air ducts. The first is the type of ductwork you have. In most cases, most types of ductwork can be easily cleaned, especially in a newer home. However, if the ducting is constructed of fiber board, it cannot be cleaned as easily. If the contamination is severe and has mold growth it likely needs to be replaced.

SEALING
Most residential duct systems have numerous leaks that waste energy and lead to room-to-room pressure imbalances.
Sealing your ducts is neccessary because 20 to 30 percent of the air that moves through the duct system is lost due to leaks, holes, and poorly connected ducts. The result is higher utility bills and difficulty keeping the house comfortable, no matter how the thermostat is set. |
SANITIZINGWe use a soy based disinfecting solution to destroy the invisible contaminants. This solution is also sprayed on the vent grills and on other surfaces in the system that could harbor germs! Sanitization is typically recommended in cases where there is visible evidence of microbial growth in your duct work. Also, it is highly effective in eliminating foul smells and damp odors from the duct work, improving indoor air quality to an often large and noticeable extent.
