Indoor air quality is critical for a healthy and comfortable home. However, if your air ducts haven’t been cleaned recently, you could be circulating contaminated air throughout your home. Tri-City Refrigeration in Wisconsin Rapids, WI, has been offering HVAC system service and duct cleaning for more than 70 years. According to their team of technicians, there are some easy-to-spot signs that your home’s ducts should be cleaned.

3 Ways to Tell If You Need Duct Cleaning

1. Allergy & Asthma Symptoms Worsen

When your ducts are dirty or clogged, allergens and airborne pathogens can become trapped in your vents. If you or your family members have experienced increased symptoms of asthma or allergies, your system might need to be cleaned to restore your home’s air quality.

2. Unusually High Energy Bills

If your energy bills are higher than normal, or you have noticed dust on the exterior of your vents, you should call a professional. Newly cleaned ducts will allow air to flow more freely, which equates to better comfort and savings.

3. Recent Pest Infestations

After a pest infestation, the dander from vermin, pest droppings, and other microorganisms can live on in your home long after the creatures are gone. If gone unchecked, the remnants from pests can present a serious health risk to your family. Additionally, as the waste circulates through the air, your home will begin to smell.

Whether it is part of a seasonal maintenance package or a one-time service, the team at Tri-City Refrigeration can restore your ducts to like-new condition.
