Ducts play a critical role in the comfort of your home as well as the quality of the air you and your family breathe. A duct system consists of a network of tubing that connects to your HVAC unit and delivers warm or cold air throughout your home. Ducts also suck the air out of the room and return it the HVAC unit for circulation.
Over time, your ductwork can accumulate a wide variety of debris such as dust, pet dander, flakes of human skin, hair and insect and rodent excrement. Eventually, this can clog the ducts and reduce the efficiency of your HVAC system. Even worse, dirty ducts can promote the growth of foreign growths, mildew and other forms of bacteria that are pushed back into the rooms when the heat or air conditioning kicks on. While your unit’s filtration system captures much of the debris and prevents its circulation, a significant amount will infiltrate your home and contaminate the air that you breathe.
If the thought of breathing germ-filled air is enough to keep you awake at night, then you recognize the importance of keeping your ductwork clean. How do you know for sure when the time has arrived? The following tips can help you determine if your ducts are due for a good cleaning:
Even if you can’t detect visible signs of dirty ducts or are not experiencing any ill effects, it doesn’t necessarily mean that your ductwork is as clean as it should be. Debris can lurk deep within the network of tubing, and while it may not be an issue now, it’s probably only a matter of time until it begins to impact your home’s air quality.
A thorough inspection by a professional residential duct cleaning contractor is the best way to determine the health of your duct system. The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends regular assessments based on each type of system component. For example, an inspection of the air handler should occur annually, while the supply and return ductwork should undergo a biennial assessment. The inspection should also include an evaluation of the HVAC unit.
If an inspection indicates the need for duct cleaning services, you should hire an experienced contractor for the task. While the process can vary depending on factors such as the age and layout of a home, level of cleanliness and type of equipment used by the contractor, the general steps include:
Implementing the following self-maintenance steps can help keep your ducts clean and provide the best possible air quality in your home:
