If you have never cleaned your air ducts or if it has been a while since their last cleaning, you may seriously want to consider calling in an expert cleaning crew. Although nothing may appear out of the ordinary, dirty air ducts can cause serious respiratory issues and complicate other health problems.
Why You Should Call A Professional
A dirty air duct may contain environmental and/or health hazards that can spread into the air you breathe. A professional Saskatoon duct cleaning service is an inexpensive way to ensure you and your family are breathing clean, high quality air.
What’s In A Dirty Duct?
The number of critters and contaminants that could be lurking above your head is truly unsettling. If your air ducts are not properly sealed, rodents or insects may move in to escape the winter chill. These pests are filthy and can carry pathogens. Moreover, an infestation originating in the air ducts could easily spread throughout your home. If something has decided to nest in your air ducts, call an HVAC system expert right away.
Another serious threat is residual debris from construction or remodelling, such as asbestos, lead paint, and significant quantities of dust. Air ducts are supposed to be sealed shut during renovations, and unless a professional takes a look, you’ll have no way of knowing if those measures were effective.
Additional elements that could be in your air duct include mold, mildew, pet hair, odours, dust, and carcinogens produced by cigarettes, fireplaces, or furnaces. All of these things can be released into a room as microscopic particles that you breathe in without anyone noticing.
If you or someone in your family recently developed an inexplicable allergy, it may be a sign that you need to clean your air ducts. Saskatoon duct cleaning professionals, like McIvor, can assess the degree of cleaning necessary to purify indoor air and see that it gets done right. A thorough duct cleaning job can take between five and seven hours. However, improving the quality of the air you breathe is worth it!
