Many homeowners don’t give much thought to the ductwork in their home. It’s mostly hidden from sight, and so it’s easy to forget about it, assuming it will continue to do its job of transporting heated and cooled air to all the rooms.
But these ducts pick up dust, lint, and other debris over time, and eventually the build-up will create troubles for the HVAC system, your budget, and your home in general. Only routine professional air duct cleaning in Covington, GA can correct this … but how will you be able to tell it’s time to arrange for this service with our team?
Well, let’s look at several of the major ways to tell you need air duct cleaning…
Enough time has passed
First, have you ever had professional duct cleaning done? If the answer is no and you’ve lived in your home for at least five years, then it’s definitely time to have it scheduled. We recommend duct cleaning every three to five years, depending on how fast the ductwork picks up debris. It only takes a year for a thin layer of dust to form inside the ducts, so five years is enough for the build-up to become a problem.
Energy bills have climbed steadily
One of the major troubles that dirty air ducts cause is resistance to airflow. This increases the strain put on the HVAC system’s blower motor and translates into it working less and less efficiently. If you noticed a steady climb in your energy bills that you can’t account for, it might be time to investigate the ducts.
Dusty home
When too much dust and other debris get trapped inside ductwork, it will cause an increase in the amount of dust in the home. Each time the HVAC system turns on, it will blow out collected dust into the circulated air. If it seems like you have to dust constantly to make your home presentable, dirty ducts may be the problem.
Dusty odors from the vents
Whenever the HVAC system turns on, do you notice a dusty odor from the vents? This may happen if you haven’t had the system on in several weeks, but this odor will soon go away. If the odor is persistent and occurring even though the HVAC system runs regularly, you may have extremely dirty ducts.
Visual inspection
You can get a look at the interior of your ducts to check on their condition. Go to one of the supply vents in your home, unscrew the vent cover, and then reach down inside the ductwork with your smartphone and take a digital picture of the interior. If the image shows something that looks like a clogged car air filter, it’s time for duct cleaning.
You can rely on us to provide you with a complete duct cleaning that will restore your ducts to their original condition. We use the most advanced equipment to not only clean out the dust and other debris from your ducts, but to also perform duct sanitizing using a special fogging machine. You won’t receive this level of cleaning from other HVAC contractors.
