7 benefits of duct cleaning
Even though they operate behind the scenes, your air ducts are essential to staying comfortable and cool in your Florida home. Being hidden away in your walls and ceiling also means that you probably forget it during cleaning. However, the benefits of duct cleaning are noticeable and can actually help your HVAC system run more efficiently.
The duct cleaning process
So how do you get started cleaning your ducts? The good news is that you don’t have to! Instead, for the safety of your ducts, you should leave the duct cleaning to a trusted professional who can make sure you reap the benefits of duct cleaning without any of the risk or hard work. Some might think they can tackle the project on their own, but improper or aggressive cleaning is known to damage ductwork and even its surrounding areas. Instead of increasing your repair bill, a professional duct cleaning team should do the work.
At Chill Squad, we can clean and even sanitize your air ducts. We use the BrushBeast, a top-of-the-line duct cleaning system, to reach every nook and cranny. You can trust our licensed technicians while they expertly clean your ducts.
Our top 7 benefits
So why do you need air duct cleaning? Here are our top seven benefits of duct cleaning that we’ve learned through our years of experience.
More efficient
Has your utility bill started to rise? Are some parts of your home staying warmer than others? The problem could be inside your air ducts! Duct cleaning removes dust and buildup that slow the flow of air throughout the system. In turn, your HVAC system has to work harder to push air through the ducts. Since professional cleaning removes obstructions, your AC can run how it should and keep you cool.
Longer lifespan
Just like most other things in life, proper maintenance will make your ducts and HVAC unit last longer. In addition, the more efficient your unit is, the longer it will last. Since it doesn’t get overworked trying to blast past blockages, the machine works as it should.
Breathe easier
Allergens, pollen, and dust mites build up in your ductwork and circulate throughout your home. Even those that don’t have allergies or asthma can be affected, with side effects ranging from respiratory issues to itchy, watery eyes. The top benefits of duct cleaning involve your health, helping you breathe easier with higher air quality.
Removes odors
If you’ve ever caught a random whiff of old, stale smoke or faint perfume, the source could be in your air ducts. Nasty odors seem to cling to everything, and years of dust and debris buildup might be the cause. Duct cleaning removes odors that once seemed to linger, even after cleaning and airing out your house.
Reduces mold
You should also take note of any moldy smells that could indicate a deeper problem. Mold feeds on dust and dead skin cells, and our naturally humid environment makes air ducts a great place for mold to settle and spread. Our sanitizing service kills mold with any other contaminants to remove them for good.
Mold isn’t just a health hazard; it can also cause structural damage and spread to other areas of your home. While it starts as a tiny spore, mold can grow in tight spaces and cause real damage. If mold growth causes cracks, we can repair the damage for you while we remove the source of the problem.
Fewer repairs
Speaking of repairs, air duct cleaning allows us to catch and repair other problems while we clean. We turn potential disasters into minor repairs since we’re working closely with your system. Plus, we can perform routine maintenance like changing air filters. Since our technicians know all the ins and outs of ductwork, we’ll be able to spot and identify issues and get them fixed.
Less dust
Fewer things are more frustrating than deep cleaning your house only to find dust on every surface the next day. Where could it all possibly come from? Since you probably rely on your AC most of the year, the culprit isn’t outside. Instead, you could have pounds of dust right inside your home. Air ducts trap dust, lint, dust mites, and pollen. Simply running your unit circulates everything throughout your home. You can think of duct cleaning like a form of heavy-duty dusting. Instead of rags, we use state-of-the-art brushes to clear away buildup in your ducts. We also have access to industrial-strength cleaners if necessary.
