Air Ducts & Your Health

Our atmosphere now suffers from considerable levels of pollution, an inevitable occurrence and a downside of living in a modern world. Did you know that your home is also not safe from pollution? If you live in a city, your home can be penetrated by smoke, dust and other particles from outdoors. The good news is, individuals can control these pollutants, and more importantly, get rid of them with air duct cleaning.

Why Clean My Air Ducts?

Professional air duct cleaning is performed to remove dust, debris, cobwebs, human and animal hair, and whatever gathers in the duct over time. This service may become necessary if you find that dusting and sweeping in your home has to be done more than the usual. Additionally, if after cleaning, you still see visible dust and family members suffer from sinus problems after or during sleep, this is a sign that your indoor air may be being compromised by unclean ducts. Signs of allergy and a foul smell coming from the boiler or air conditioner are other signs that may indicate you need your air ducts cleaned.

Clean Air, Good Health
