Your HVAC system circulates air through the ducts, providing your home with a comfortable environment year-round. Some of the air is pulled in through the cooling and heating systems, and much of it is recycled. An air duct cleaning will help eliminate many pollutants that are caught in your system before they can affect your indoor air quality. 

What Are the Benefits of an Air Duct Cleaning?

1. Improves Airflow

The ducts require a certain amount of air to flow through the system to work properly. If the airflow diminishes, the HVAC unit must work harder, reducing its longevity. Dirty ducts and filters can both reduce the airflow drastically, as well as introduce particles of dust, pollen, and microorganisms into the home.

2. Limits Allergens

While the air in the home is pushed into the ducts, pet dander, dust, pollen, spores, and every other airborne substance are brought with it. People experiencing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and other respiratory issues may find the internal atmosphere of the home uncomfortable. Cleaner air provides a healthier environment for homeowners and their families.

3. Reduces Odors

Pets, smoky weather conditions, or an angry skunk outside can pollute the home with undesirable odors. As air is pushed through the ducts, the odor molecules are trapped in the filtration system and reduced. However, unclean vents can trap the odor before it reaches the filtration system, and the smells can last longer as a result.
