A question that homeowners ask me frequently after being told they need to have duct cleaning done is, “Is Duct Cleaning Worth It?” I understand why people are a bit confused about if duct cleaning is necessary and how they get dirty in the first place. The ducts in your home are out-of-sight and out-of-mind […]
One of the biggest negative consequences is how much bad ductwork wastes power. However, we’ll talk about that more in another post, because right now we want to look at the serious problems that bad, leaky ductwork has on your indoor air quality.
Let us assure you, dryer vent cleaning is not a luxury service. And it’s not only about seeing that your clothes dryer works efficiently and gets your clothes fully dry on each load. This is a vital service for protecting your home.

Spring brings with it warmer weather (warmer than our already mild winters, at lease). It also brings with it an increase in allergens in the air. As soon as the temperature remains consistently high for 3 to 4 days, which usually happens in April, the pollen count in the air rises steeply. This can make life unpleasant even for people with modest allergies.
Proper comfort and energy efficiency in your home is about more than the AC and heater. It’s also about the ventilation system that carries conditioned air to the rooms. It’s easy to put the ductwork out of your mind since you can’t see most of it, but that’s a mistake. Air ducts with damage will start to leak air, and this will have an impact on your comfort, energy savings, and even the quality of your indoor air.
If you think that your home is suffering from low quality air, you’re probably right: numerous houses in the U.S. today are dealing with contaminant-filled air due to a lack of fresh-air circulation. Fortunately, there are many ways to clean the air in a home to make it a healthier and more comfortable environment.
