What Are Air Ducts Anyway?

Just as a refresher, allow us to walk you through the functions of air ducts. First of all, air ducts are a complex system that is mainly in charge of your interior’s ventilation. More than that, it also takes care of circulating the air from your heating and air conditioning equipment.

How important are these airways? All the air that passes through your home goes through these ducts. So if these ducts are clean, then you should have no problem. However, if the ducts are dirty, then you and your family will soon be breathing air that is already contaminated. Common contaminants include pollen, dander, dust, and even mold and mildew.

Air Ducts filter out the air from the "lungs of your home", your HVAC system. This system is responsible for regulating the air and temperatures in your home. If this isn't ever cleaned or maintained, it can spill out into your house for you to breathe in daily! Air duct walls get filled with dust, dirt, pet dander, allergens, and possibly Mold/Mildew that can be difficult to detect.

Poor indoor air quality can severely affect someone already living with Asthma, COPD, and also cause respiratory issues by creating unfavorable conditions, allowing for allergens to spread and take flight constantly. Having us professionally clean your ducts with our HEPA vacuums can increase flow efficiency and help your family breathe easy again. Safe House Air Duct Cleaning technicians pride themselves in leaving your property smelling brand new. Most air ducts lifespan range from 15-25 years. It is important to maintain them adequately to elongate this range. 

So, of course, you want to make your living environment safe and clean, right? If your answer is a resounding yes, then we can help. You can trust our Air Duct cleaning services to make sure that you and your family breathe fresh, clean air.

Is It Time To Clean Your Home’s Air Duct System?

Now that you know the benefits of cleaning your home’s air duct system, let’s figure out when you need it. Here are the top 3 signs to look for when your ducts need to be cleaned.

1. The vent looks dirty

Notice how there’s a bit of dust gathered near your home’s registers or vents? No matter how often you clean your vents, dirty ducts will always make itself known. If there’s dust gathered on surfaces, especially near the vent, then you need to call us right away. The buildup signals that dust and other allergens are constantly being circulated in your home.

2. There’s a musty smell in the air

Mold mostly makes itself known by the musty smell that accompanies it. This, plus maybe spatters of mold near your duct system, are telltale signs that you need professional cleaning right away. Save you and your family’s health by making sure that mold is contained even before it gets worse. Quick action is required right now, so book your appointment right away.

3. The airflow is unpredictable

You might notice that some rooms in your home have more airflow than others. The airflow should be consistent all throughout your home. If it isn’t, then it’s time to give the duct cleaning technicians a call.

Mold and Mildew information

A humid climate, along  with anything causing moisture with condensation in your walls, can lead to mold in your air ducts. The temperature differential generates moisture in an undesirable place. Mold can grow in the ductwork if it isn't noticed or maintained.  The first tell-tale sign most homeowners notice is the odor. By that time, it's already a major infestation. Cracks or breakages in your ductwork can lead to humidity or moisture leakage in your walls. The temperature differential generates moisture through condensation in  undesirable places.

The vast majority of household cleaning solutions simply cannot fully wipe mold out, as it is incredibly resilient and regenerative. Now imagine this intruder traversing the entirety of your air ducts length. Safe House has handled and efficiently eliminated this problem via sanitization for all of our clients with reliable results!
