It doesn’t take long for pollutants in the air to become irritating, especially for people with respiratory issues. You might notice even the slightest change in air quality from day to day. Over time, poor air quality can lead to serious problems like heart and lung disease, and researchers have found children and the elderly are especially susceptible.
Although your HVAC system contains filters and systems to help keep the pollutants at bay, those dangerous particulates can still build up in the air ducts over time. Air ducts connect your HVAC system with vents throughout your property and should be cleaned regularly to ensure the air going through your house or office is as fresh as possible. People who don’t clean them out could have problems with mold development, dust accumulation, and even infestations of insects or rodents.
There are several ways to clean air ducts. Some people wash vent covers or try to vacuum the ducts out, but those DIY methods aren’t particularly effective when done by people who aren’t well-versed in HVAC systems. There’s a revolutionary way to get your HVAC system so germ-free you would think it was new: antimicrobial fogging. This process removes dust and microbes in air ducts during treatment and protects against future growth.
Microorganisms can include things like bacteria, viruses, mold, and mildew. Antimicrobial products are meant to wipe them out, which is essential during COVID. Before antimicrobial agents are used in air ducts, though, it is recommended to have the system thoroughly cleaned.
After cleaning, our expert technicians use equipment to convert a liquid antimicrobial agent into a fog that spreads within your ducts, coils, and blowers and coats the surfaces, sanitizing everything it touches.
Getting rid of the debris within your air ducts has another benefit, too: it can make your system more efficient. That saves you money by lowering energy use, decreasing the need for other maintenance, and keeping the system operating longer.
The CDC and EPA both have guidance on proper cleaning and what materials can be used. The Environmental Protection Agency, says there could be public health and safety implications, and EPA-approved products are required. As a result, it’s essential to contract with a reputable company that keeps up-to-date on the latest government standards and the most effective cleaning methods. Having an expert clean out your ducts is also beneficial because they may alert you to other issues your HVAC system may have.
