Air Duct Cleaning - For Better Air Quality

If you are interested in having your air ducts cleaned, Air Duct Cleaning Seattle is here to fulfill all of your needs. If anyone in your home suffers from allergies, you have undoubtedly researched all the ways you can mitigate effects of allergies in your home.

If you have really done your research, you may know that the EPA has released some data stating that periodic and frequent air duct cleaning may not be beneficial to your health. But they do agree that there are circumstances in which air duct cleaning is beneficial to your home and to your health.

EPA Recommendation

According to the EPA, it is important to have your air ducts cleaned when there is an infestation of mice, rats or other vermin; when there is a high amount of dirt and debris built up along the walls of the air ducts; and when there is a confirmed mold substance growing in the air ducts, the entire system should be cleaned extremely thoroughly to prevent re-growth. If you are suspicious that there is or might be mold inside the air ducts, you can send a sample to a mold testing laboratory to find out for sure. This will only cost about fifty dollars. It is important to remove mold from your home, as mold presence can have health effects, particularly in people who are allergic to mold spores. Side effects can be watery and itchy eyes, scratchy and sore throat, coughing, runny nose, etc.

The EPA has released all of this information (which, unfortunately, does not include very many detailed studies, as they have never been performed), in response to the heightened awareness of indoor air pollution. It is common knowledge that indoor air is frequently more polluted than outdoor air, and with the increasing amount of time people spend indoors, creating a healthy breathing environment is very important. You may have noticed air purifiers being sold at every store imaginable now, many with unbelievable claims. This is more evidence of the population's concern with the healthiness of the air they are breathing.

At Seattle Air Duct Cleaning, we are also concerned with the air you are breathing, and we're here to help create a healthy environment for you. When choosing a company to service your Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system, there are some important qualities to look out for:

  1. How many years of experience does the company have?
  2. Do they offer references?
  3. If you ask them how they clean systems, do they offer different options?
  4. Do they keep up with National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) standards?

Different heating and cooling systems are made of different materials and hence require different cleaning methods. Some HVAC systems are made of metal and some are made of fiberglass or fiberboard. All three create different environments (i.e., metal is quite water repellant where as fiberglass easily absorbs water and liquid), and must be treated differently.

Air Duct Cleaning Seattle has all of the above qualities. We have been performing excellent HVAC cleaning, duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning and more for many customers in your area. Call us today at 206-331-3752!
