When you consider how indoor air quality can impact the health of everyone living inside the home, you shouldn’t be surprised as to how the debris and dirt that accumulates in every air duct in the home can further impact the situation.  According to the EPA, about 40 pounds of contaminants and debris can accumulate within those ducts within a year’s time.  This says a lot about the importance of proper air duct cleaning.
 
In order to improve your indoor air quality, regular air duct cleaning by a National Air Duct Cleaner’s Association (NADCA) certified company like Dapper Ducts, Inc. is essential. 
 
Consider the benefits of this:
 

• Air duct cleaning removes a majority of the contaminants and pollutants that build up over time and circulate back into your living spaces wherever you live in DC, Maryland or Virginia.

 

• Energy savings increase when you keep your ductwork clean.  When your system isn’t clean, it has to work harder to cool or heat your home.  So by having your ductwork cleaned regularly, you can save money on your monthly utility bills

 

• HVAC systems have to work much harder to keep you comfortable when the duct work is filled with debris.  Keeping the air ducts cleaned on a regular basis can increase the life of your HVAC equipment and lower the amount of repairs that are needed.

 

• The health of you and your family are at much less risk when you have proper air duct cleaning done.  For individuals suffering with allergies or asthma, the contaminants and pollutants circulating in the air further compounds their problems.

 
On a closing note, look for a build-up of dirt and dust on your air duct vent covers.  If you see enough debris to warrant vacuuming those covers, chances are you should contact Dapper Ducts, Inc. to come out and clean your air ducts. Call us to ensure you have a healthy home or business space.

Professional contractors that specialize in the cleaning of air ducts and dryer vents will tell you that there is much more involved with these services than simply cleaning out the air passageways of your HVAC and dryer’s venting system. 
 
As your dryer vents hot air to the outside of your home, clothing fibers and lint get vented out with it.  Over time, that debris builds up and clogs the hose, which can eventually lead to problems.  When dryer vents get clogged, your dryer has to work harder and is less energy-efficient.  So your clothes do not dry properly, the cost of your monthly utility bills increase, and there is an increased risk of a fire starting.  Once a fire starts, it can move through the walls and eventually engulf the whole house in flames. 
 
Cleaning out your dryer vent's hose and dryer duct may not be that easy.  If you are uncertain about the condition of your dryer vents, you should consult Dapper Ducts, Inc.  If you have the dryer vent cleaned on a regular basis by our professional NADCA certified company, you can avoid the risk of a fire occurring and other hazards.
