It’s estimated that most of us spend between 60% and 90% of our time indoors. And in these days of self-isolation, social distancing and working from home due to Covid-19, many of us are spending even more time indoors than usual.
Unfortunately, this means that most of us are also breathing in unhealthy air. Why? Often because of dirty and contaminated air ducts. The good news is that having your air ducts professionally cleaned eliminates this problem in a number of ways to provide you with a much healthier and cleaner environment.
When your energy system is not active, dust settles in the air ducts. Then every time your system starts back up, that dust is circulated back through your home and into your lungs. It also settles on your furniture, bedding, clothing, floors, rugs, drapes and carpet.
A complete, expert cleaning of your air ducts eliminates this dust, providing you with a much cleaner and healthier living environment.
Mold Remediation
In a humid environment such as we have here in Western Tennessee, mold is a continual problem. And one of the places mold can easily grow is inside your air ducts. So when your heating/cooling system kicks in, this can release mold into your home’s air.
That’s why the EPA recommends that you have your air ducts professionally inspected and cleaned if you suspect mold may be present.
Fortunately, All American has expertise in both mold removal as well as air duct cleaning. So we are able to ensure that the mold is effectively removed rather than just wiped over. If the conditions causing the mold growth in the first place are not corrected, mold growth will recur.
Eliminates Contaminants
It’s also common in our area for air ducts to become infested with vermin such as rodents and insects. In these situations, feces, rodent hair, insect parts and other detritus can be circulated in your home due to contaminated air ducts.
Air ducts also provide a home for other contaminants, including bacteria, dust mites, pollen and pet dander. Having your air ducts professionally cleaned on a regular schedule ensures that these dangerous particles do not circulate through your home and into the lungs of you and those you love.
Removes Unpleasant Odors
All of those contaminants can also produce unpleasant odors. So another great benefit of clean air ducts is that your home or office will not only be healthier, but will also smell much cleaner and fresher.
Improves Efficiency
An air duct system with a heavy buildup of dirt, dust and contaminants will operate less efficiently. It will have to work harder to do its job, and will still do it less effectively and at a higher cost in energy bills.
On the other hand, a clean air duct system will operate at peak efficiency, providing you with clean, fresh, healthy air at a lower cost.
It will also extend the life of your HVAC system, saving you even more!
