Duct Cleaning Techniques Have Greatly Improved

Way back in 1997 the EPA did a study that down played the importance of duct cleaning. Many feel this was due in large part to the “air duct cleaning scams” that were being reported all across the Minneapolis area as well as the entire US. While the report was very thorough, duct cleaning techniques and equipment has changed. “Duct cleaners” were running around in station wagons and mini-vans with a shopvac, calling themselves “Indoor Air Quality Professionals.

Improve Indoor Air Quality with Regular Duct Cleaning in the Twin Cities

Dirty ductwork is a major source of indoor air pollution. Airborne contaminants like, dust, dirt and allergens are drawn into the air ducts, through the cold air return, every time the heating and cooling system kicks on. Over time, these contaminants build up inside the air ducts, creating a natural breeding ground for mold, bacteria, fungi and other microbes.

This is particularly true if you have a central air conditioning system like most homeowners do. The damp, cool, air produced by the evaporator, also known as the a-coil, is distributed throughout your air ducts. This creates a comfortable climate in your home, but mold spores and other organisms also thrive in those conditions.

Air Filtration Alone is not Enough

Dust particles drawn into the ductwork typically pass through fiberglass filters and infiltrate your HVAC (Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning) system, undermining the performance and energy efficiency of these systems. These particles that make it past the filter can lead to higher maintenance and repair costs, and shorter service life in the long run.

The EPA has this to Say:

According to the EPA, “a build-up of only 0.42″ of dirt on a heating or cooling coil can decrease efficiency by 21%”. Keep in mind a 21% decrease in energy consumption is huge considering homeowners are spending thousands of dollars to enhance their system with new energy savings devices and are excited about a savings of much less.

Furnace manufacturers all recommend an annual furnace cleaning, tune-up and inspection of your furnace. Based on what the EPA says, combined with furnace manufacturer recommendations, it might be time for you to have your furnace, a/c coil and air ducts cleaned.
