Air Duct Cleaning Services for Commercial & Residential Locations

It's recommended to do HVAC Maintenance Cleaning once a year to avoid further expenses down the line. However, how frequently you clean your air duct largely depends on what has been going on in your house. If your property has recently undergone renovations or construction, the optimal time to clean the air ducts is right before moving back into the house. No matter the surrounding circumstances, the EPA and NADCA advise doing a Deep Cleaning once every 3-4 years. The air ducts may need to be cleaned more frequently than that if you live in a very urbanized area, close to a busy road, or in a neighborhood where a lot of smoke or other allergens enter your home. It's also a smart idea to clean the ducts before a new baby or an old relative moves in since toddlers and the elderly have weaker immune systems and are more susceptible to airborne contaminants.

Your ducts and supply vents only circulate the air through your house, they do not purify the air that they circulate. After a while, the dust that is naturally inside your home settles and accumulates inside the air duct walls. Other contaminants such as allergens from the outside environment, human hair and/or pet dander, fungus spores, insects and the leftovers of dead insects, occasionally rodent excrement or even dead rats, carcinogenic byproducts of household chemicals and/or cigarette smoke are also a major contributor to dirty air ducts. All these things accumulate inside the duct walls and are recirculated through your home over and over again until you clean the ducts.  You may not notice it right away but breathing all this airborne gunk seriously catches up with your health, it is especially risky for the respiratory health of toddlers and the elderly since their immune system tends to be more vulnerable.  Numerous health authorities link clogged air ducts to headaches, fatigue, depressive symptoms, dermatitis, wheezing, coughing, and even asthma. Additionally, the more clogged your HVAC system is the harder it has to work to push the air through the ducts, and this raises your energy costs, reduces the amount of airflow throughout the house, and wears down your air duct system. Therefore, having dirty air ducts is bad for your health, increases energy consumption, and increases the risk of system breakdown, all of which directly leads to increased costs (not to mention increased worry and headaches for you from dealing with all these issues).

A word on cigarette smoke and scented air sprays, candles, home spray purifiers and other smoke smells: many such products tend to carry carcinogenic chemicals, and when they get into the air duct system they adhere to the interior walls of the ducts. These chemicals have a sticky surface area and act as a catch-all for all other types of airborne bacteria that enters the ducts, settles in a clump inside your ducts, and starts to fester until after a while you have a carcinogenic clog in your HVAC system. To eliminate this type of dirt, we use a professional high-tech machine with a revolving brush that is safe to use on ducting so that it can safely scrub all of the interior sides clean.  When we see instances of dirt of this type, or any lingering smoke smell within the house, we also recommend a Sanitizing Disinfectant Wash after the deep cleaning. The sanitizer is EPA-approved to deliver hospital-grade cleaning and eliminate all allergens, bacteria, beginning of mold spores and other contaminants.
