The air ducts in our homes or even in commercial buildings can become home to a number of contaminates. Over time the air ducts can be full of rodents, insects, dust mites, bacteria, mold, pollen, and other organic decay. It can be scary to discover what can enter and settle within any air duct system. Once these contaminants enter your air duct system, they will affect the indoor air quality causing allergies, illness and other irritations. Air Pure Air Duct Cleaning would like to help you combat air duct contaminants. We will share how to detect, clean and even prevent contaminants in the air ducts.
Air Duct Inspection
Detecting contaminants isn’t that difficult. In most cases you can simply unscrew the air vent cover and look down inside the air ducts. You can see what is inside them and see if there is a thick layer of dust, pest activity, mold and other contaminants that do not belong. Air ducts should have nothing in them. If anything is inside the air ducts, it is considered a contamination. However, in most cases, something needs to draw your attention to check inside the air duct first. If you have indoor allergies, seem to get sick a lot, or notice dust and debris accumulating around the air vent, check inside the air ducts.
Cleaning Air Ducts
If you have discovered contaminants inside your air ducts, your next step is cleaning the entire air duct system. To properly clean an entire air duct system properly, you will want to seek professional air duct cleaning services. They use industrial air duct cleaning machines. These machines have a powerful suction hose with a rotating brush that thoroughly cleans the entire air duct system. Often they also clean off all of the air vents and even clean inside an air conditioner unit to ensure there are no more contaminant in your air duct system. To ensure your air ducts are clean and free of all types of contaminants, be sure to seek out quality air duct cleaning services.
How Do I Keep My Air Ducts Clean?
To help extend your air duct cleaning and or to prevent contaminants from infecting your air ducts and indoor air, there are steps you can take. The first step every homeowner and business owner can take is having the air filters changed out regularly. The air filters will help reduce the amount of contaminants that enter the air ducts, at least from the inside of the home. If you have a ton of dust clogging your air filter when you change them, change the filter a week or two sooner. The air filters never should be so dirty they prevent proper air flow. Next it helps to maintain healthy air ducts. Air ducts can be damaged or develop leaks. An issue with the air conditioner’s condensation drainage system can also cause water to enter through the air ducts. With professional air duct inspections, you can check for air duct leaks, damage or even possible water leaks that leads to mold.
