Spring is around the corner, and with that comes warmer weather, flowers, and dreaded allergies. Allergies come from pollutants in the air such as pollen, mold, dust, and pet dander as well as flakes of human skin and hair. Particles from these allergens are transported through your home’s HVAC system ductwork and settle both inside the ducts and throughout your home. As you prepare for the new season, look for the following signs that might indicate it is time to have your ductwork cleaned:
- Grills look dirty
- Dust blows out of your grills when you turn your HVAC system on
- Your filter becomes dirty quickly and often
- System airflow isn’t as powerful as it used to be
- You are coughing, sneezing, and wheezing more often
If you notice any of these issues we recommend that you have your ductwork cleaned by a professional. Haller’s team of highly trained technicians will be happy to perform a full duct cleaning which includes the following:
- Testing and cleaning of the HVAC unit
- Cleaning of all the supply and return grills and ducts
- Decontamination and deodorization
- New filter installation
It is important to have your ductwork cleaned every seven years. Performing regular duct cleaning will improve the air quality in your home and enhance the efficiency of your heating and cooling system. Once your ducts are clean, take the extra step toward pure air by installing an AtmosAir system. These systems eliminate 95 percent of pollutants in the air by using the natural process of bipolar ionization. Breathe deeply and enjoy spring inside your home by keeping your air clean!
