When you do not clean your air ducts for a while, dust and grime build up in the system and around your home, which affects the air you breathe and your health. Through the HVAC system, dangerous particles spread to numerous rooms in your home and collect inside the air ducting system.
When your HVAC system is running, toxins spread throughout your home. To ensure that the air in your home is clean and fresh, Organic Home Service uses our expertise in cleaning air ducting systems and vents.
So if you require air duct cleaning services in Dallas, TX, Organic Home Service should be your first call! Let’s go over what it takes to clean air ducts.
You Need an Inspection
Organic Home Services starts with inspecting your HVAC system and air ducts to see what needs cleaning.
There are many drawbacks to delaying the cleaning process, including higher costs, wasted electricity, and even system slowdown. Your HVAC system, not just the ducts, has to be cleaned.
During an inspection, technicians look for dust, dirt, pollen, pet dander, and other airborne contaminants in your air duct system. Dirt builds up inside your air ducts over time. It will create a favorable environment for the growth of mold spores, mildew, bacteria, fungi, and other gross things that can make you very sick.
People with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory illnesses, especially young children and the elderly, are more susceptible to the effects of indoor air pollution.
Once a technician has finished their inspection, they will provide customers with a detailed action plan to get the ducts cleaned and ready.
It Is All About the Contaminants Inside Your Ducts
Contaminants, such as mold growth, inside your air ducts tend to be the most significant issue when it comes to causing health problems. That mold growth can spread spores around your home through the air vent system. Mold can cause allergic responses from your body, such as watery eyes, itching, sneezing, coughing, and breathing troubles.
Rodents and other nasty critters gain access to your home through the ventilation system. Rodent droppings can carry airborne illnesses like the hantavirus. Hantavirus is a severe lung disease that can be fatal in the right circumstances.
Other contaminants that could be inside your air ducts include:
- Pollen grains
- Bacteria
- Decaying matter
- Dust mites
- Residue from chemicals
Indoor Air Quality Is Important
With the EPA estimating that Americans spend 90 percent of their day inside their homes, a home with clean air is a must.
Indoor air pollutants can cause significant health issues from difficulty breathing, headaches, dizziness, heart disease, and cancer. If you are spending 90 percent of your day in any place, the air in the area must be clean and safe to breathe.
An Odor Issue
Have you ever smelled the smell of something that smells smelly? The odds are you might be dealing with an odor in your air ducts. You cannot blame the dog anymore.
We can eliminate any odors from your air ducts by cleaning them. After all, air ducts get contaminated by odors from cooking, pets, or smoking. Therefore, if you have ever smelled something foul emanating from your vents, it is time to clean them.
The Right Equipment Matters
A line in Ghostbusters claims that the team has “the tools and the talent” to bring down the ghost threat in Manhattan. We are not comparing our folks to Bill Murray and company. But it takes much more to clean an air duct than an air compressor or your standard-issue Hoover vacuum cleaner.
Air duct cleaning services like Organic Home Services of Dallas, TX come more than prepared to clean your ducts. Our technician will arrive at your home ready to do the job following the inspection and scheduling.
Powerful vacuums are available to our professionals, who can clean your ductwork of all dirt, debris, and dust. Their specialized brushes can get right inside the cracks and crevices of your air ducts. This process eliminates anything sticking to the walls of your air ducts, including mold growth.
Allergens May Become Dislodged During Cleaning
Air duct cleaning is still an imperfect process. Organic Home Services may be able to get your ducts spotless and free of contaminants. But the cleaning process dislodges allergens and will push them through your home.
That means dust, dirt, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and more could still flow through your system after cleaning. Once your system has gone through a few cycles, those allergens will likely dissipate.
Make Air Duct Cleaning a Part of Routine HVAC Maintenance
Making sure you have clean air ducts ensures the air you breathe is healthy and free of allergens.
We recommend air duct cleaning at least once a year; luckily, air duct cleaning can be part of your yearly HVAC maintenance. HVAC units must be serviced at least twice a year during the summer and winter. This plan allows your unit to work optimally over many years. Ask your technician to set up an air duct cleaning after they complete a maintenance visit. The technician works with the front office to schedule the cleaning. You will also have time to prepare your home for the process.
