If your HVAC system has been faulty lately, it may just need some TLC. Not unlike a night out, a box of mixed chocolates, or a dozen roses, air duct cleaning can breathe new life into your home\u2019s HVAC system. To clean the duct system, an HVAC technician uses specialized brushes and vacuums to clean the interior piping of ducts throughout your home. The service should accompany a general cleaning of the HVAC system components as well as an inspection to determine the source of any pollutants or debris found in your system. The professionals at Home Service Heroes have compiled a list of the reasons why it\u2019s important to consider this service.<\/p>\n

To Clean or Not to Clean?<\/h2>\n

As with any HVAC maintenance, you\u2019ll want to consider your options. Depending on your goals, duct cleaning may not be your best bet. If you\u2019re hoping to improve indoor air quality in your home, you\u2019ll need to determine the source of the pollutants, and weigh whether or not cleaning the ducts is necessary to mitigate the particles in your air.<\/p>\n

While there is no harm in having your ducts cleaned, the value of duct cleaning will depend on what you\u2019re hoping to accomplish, as well as the specifics of your situation.

If you require duct cleaning, take sure your HVAC professional determines the cause of debris in your duct system. If you fail to identify and mitigate the cause of the pollutants that are cleaned from your ducts, they will return, costing you more money down the line.<\/p>\n

If done right, duct cleaning can improve indoor air quality and extend the life of your HVAC system by clearing pollutants or obstructions from your ducts, but it can also cause more harm than good if done improperly, or with inadequate tools. For these reasons, it\u2019s a good idea to have a trained, certified HVAC professional assess your situation and perform any necessary duct cleaning with adequate equipment.<\/p>\n
