Is It Time to Clean Your Vents?
- Has it been over 5 years since your last vent cleaning?
- Are your allergies worse at home?
- Noticing a higher energy bill from running your HVAC system?
If you answered yes to any of these, it’s probably time to have your vents professionally cleaned!
Here’s a few other reasons
- Visible mold growth: If you can see substantial mold inside hard-surface ducts or on other HVAC components. Be aware that damp or moldy insulation must be removed and replaced, as it cannot be effectively cleaned.
- Pest infestation: If your ducts are infested with insects or rodents.
- Excessive dust and debris: If ducts are clogged with dust and debris, or if you can see particles being released into your home from the supply registers.
- Recent renovations: After a remodeling project, construction dust can contaminate your ductwork.
- Move into a new home: Cleaning the ducts is a good idea, especially if the previous owner had pets, smoked, or neglected maintenance.
