Air duct cleaning refers to the process of removing dust, debris, mold, allergens, and other contaminants from the ductwork of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. This includes cleaning the supply and return air ducts, as well as the registers, grilles, diffusers, and other components of the system.
The goal of air duct cleaning is to improve indoor air quality, enhance HVAC system efficiency, and reduce the accumulation of pollutants that can circulate throughout a building. Professional air duct cleaning typically involves the use of specialized tools, such as high-powered vacuums, brushes, and air whips, to dislodge and extract contaminants from the ductwork. In some cases, antimicrobial treatments may also be applied to address mold or bacteria growth.
This service is particularly beneficial in homes or buildings with pets, smokers, recent renovations, or occupants with allergies or respiratory issues.
