Air Duct Cleaning Tips
Duct cleaning is the cleaning of various heating and cooling system components of forced air systems. If the ducts are not properly installed, maintained, and operated, these components may become contaminated with particles of dust, pollen, or other debris causing severe health hazards to those inside the space with un-clean ducts.
Improving air quality
No matter what the condition of the ducts, having a crew of guys lugging around hoses and pumping air throughout the building and mechanical system will affect air quality.
Benefits of air duct cleaning:
