Dirty duct systems are a major source of indoor air pollution. Airborne contaminants
are pulled into the ducts every time the heating and cooling system runs. Over time, these contaminants build up inside the
ductwork, creating an ideal breeding ground for mold, bacteria, fungi and other microbes.
Particles drawn into
the air ducts also pass through fiberglass filters and infiltrate into HVAC equipment, undermining the performance and energy
efficiency of these systems. That can lead to premature failure and higher repair and maintenance costs, and shorter service
life in the long run. According to the EPA, a build-up of only 0.42" of dirt on a heating or cooling coil can decrease
efficiency by 21%.
Air duct cleaning is a proactive solution to these problems. It can enhance indoor air quality,
improve overall air circulation, eliminate built-up dirt and contaminants, and extend the life of heating and cooling systems.

HOW TO CHOOSE AN AIR DUCT CLEANING CONTRACTOR?

advanced systems where only highly trained and experienced HVAC technicians are able to handle maintenance procedure with
out damaging systems.

Negative air pressure push-pull is proven as one of the most effective methods. Don’t get mislead by terms
