When your home has a comfortable climate and good indoor air quality, you probably don’t give much thought to your ductwork. However, problems inside ducts can build up over time, suddenly creating an unwelcome surprise with excess dust or mold formation. Duct cleaning from Galbreath Heating & Air can alleviate these concerns.
Our duct cleaning experts deliver professional cleaning services that you can trust. We focus on improving the quality of your home’s ventilation system so you can breathe clean air and stay healthier.
How Do You Know If You Need Duct Cleaning?
If you need to dust your home more often than usual, cleaning your ducts may help to reduce this issue. You also should change your furnace filter to help it catch dust particles more effectively.
When people in your home are noticing increased allergic reactions or repeated respiratory illnesses, having our professionals clean your ducts might help. Odd odors or a persistent musty smell could indicate that it’s time to clean the ductwork.
When you move into a home, having our team clean your ducts can give you a fresh start.
Our team recommends cleaning your ducts once a year. If you don’t have pets or live in an area where you don’t have dust flying around on windy days, you may only need duct cleaning every other year.
Benefits of Cleaning Your Ducts Regularly
The primary benefit of cleaning your ductwork is to improve the indoor air quality at your home. Even though you may not see them, tiny particles that can increase allergic reactions are floating in the air at all times. The particles may include:
- Dust
- Mold spores
- Pet dander
- Smoke particles
Your furnace filter catches some of these, but others are so small that they continue moving on air currents. Some of them settle and collect inside your ducts, only to return to the air when you kick on your furnace or air conditioner for the first time in the year.
When our team performs duct cleaning for you, we can remove these particles. This improves your air quality immediately, taking allergens away and letting your family breathe easier.
We also can find areas where the ducts are leaking air or are allowing moisture to enter your air handler system. We can repair these issues to improve the performance of your duct system. You should notice improved HVAC efficiency after we remove contaminants from your ductwork.
