Air Duct Cleaning

Air Duct Cleaning

Air duct cleaning is an integral and important part of the maintenance of your HVAC system. If you have noticed dirt or cobwebs forming around your supply ducts, lots of dust on your tables, countertops and other pieces of furniture or surfaces, but your filter has been and is changed regularly, then your ducts probably need cleaned out.

Over time dust and other household pollutants accumulate and settle in the duct work throughout your home or business. As moisture is collected as well, that debris may even harden and attract even more dust and pollutants.

These pollutants can contain thousands of dust mites and different allergens that may affect your family’s health depending upon their sensitivity to specific allergens.

When should you have air ducts cleaned

You should consider having the air ducts in your business or home cleaned if:

  • There is substantial visible mold growth inside hard surface (e.g., sheet metal) ducts or on other components of your heating and cooling system.
  • There are several important points to understand concerning mold detection in heating and cooling systems:
    • Many sections of your heating and cooling system may not be accessible for a visible inspection, so call All Quality Heating and Air to test if mold exists.
    • You should be aware that although a substance may look like mold, a positive determination of whether it is mold or not can be made only by an expert and may require laboratory analysis for final confirmation.
    • If you have insulated air ducts and the insulation gets wet or moldy it cannot be effectively cleaned and should be removed and replaced.
  • If the conditions causing the mold growth in the first place are not corrected, mold growth will recur.
  • Ducts are clogged with excessive amounts of dust and debris and/or particles are actually released into the home from your supply registers.

If any of the conditions identified above exists, it usually suggests one or more underlying causes. Prior to any cleaning, retrofitting, or replacing of your ducts, the cause must be corrected or else the problem will likely recur.
