Mitigating Risk by Cleaning the Ducts

A freshly cleaned HVAC system will run more efficiently than a dirty one, which will result in lower utility bills and a cleaner environment. Dust, dirt, pollen, animal dander and airborne contaminants re-circulate through the HVAC system when the furnace or air conditioner are running. Over time, miniscule particulates may build up inside your ductwork, making your system a potential breeding ground for additional bacteria, fungus, mildew and even molds. Those who suffer from allergies, asthma or other respiratory ailments, especially children and the elderly, may be vulnerable to the effects of indoor air pollution.
