Bartlett Heating and Air Has Reasons to Get a Duct Cleaning This Winter

During the winter we think of our furnace because that is what creates the heat for our home. What we sometimes forget to think about is the duct work that carries that warm air to our home. The ducts need attention too. Here are some signs that you need them cleaned and a couple reasons to do so. If you or your family members cough and sneeze a lot when the HVAC system is running, it may be time to get the ducts cleaned. You have an abundant number of allergens that get trapped in the duct work and spread throughout the home when the HVAC system is running. Is there a stale odor in your home? Getting your ducts cleaned will fix that. Your indoor air quality depends on having clean ducts in the winter since your home will be mostly sealed off. When you have dirty ducts, that bacteria and dirt will get circulated throughout your home all season. Having your ducts cleaned will increase your HVAC equipments efficiency. Dirty ducts that have blocked areas will make the furnace and ac have to work harder in order to distribute the conditioned air into your home. That will wear your equipment out faster and also raise your energy bills costing you more money. One last reason to clean your ducts and also sanitize them is to fight the flu virus, germs, and bacteria that keeps you and your family sick all winter. Ducts are a great environment to grow bacteria, mold, and house the flu virus so it will keep getting circulated all season long.
