Improve IAQ
Your home’s air quality can be up to 100 times more polluted than the air outside. And when you consider most people spend an average of about 90 percent of their time indoors, you must ensure the air you breathe inside is clean.
Particle pollutants like dust, dirt and chemicals can recirculate in your house at least half a dozen times per day. Over time, these particle pollutants collect in the ductwork and form layers of buildup that harbor other contaminants that can impact your indoor air quality. People with respiratory health conditions, autoimmune disorders and environmental allergies are especially susceptible to experiencing symptoms and negative health effects.
Lower Energy Bills
Your HVAC system wastes up to 40 percent of the energy it uses to heat and cool your home. Energy waste can stem from several problems that strain your HVAC system, including dirty ductwork. For your HVAC system to operate at peak efficiency, it must be clean. Duct cleaning will make sure that your unit isn’t straining to keep you comfortable.
