Air Conditioning & Duct Cleaning
If you have a central heating or cooling system in your home, you have a duct system that distributes the air throughout your home, that needs air duct cleaning. Brandon air duct cleaning involves the cleansing of not only the duct system, but also the air registers, grills, diffusers, heat exchangers, cooling coils, drain pans, fan motor, fan housing, and the air handling housing. If you’ve been suffering from allergies or unexplained illnesses, you may be wondering if it’s time to have your Brandon air ducts cleaned to remove any excess dust. Your Brandon heat pump can benefit from this as well.
It’s important to know whether or not you need air duct cleaning to avoid an unnecessary expense. While this service is often needed, some unscrupulous service companies will advise you to clean your ducts even if you don’t need to and will overcharge you. Having dusty return registers or grills is normal, and you can simply vacuum them clean. However, if you notice a substantial growth of mold on the hard surfaces of your duct system, it is probably time for a cleaning. Other reasons could include a vermin infestation or an excessive clogging of your duct work.Improper Brandon Air Duct Cleaning Can Lead To Worse Air Quality
If you have your duct work cleaned by a service provider who fails to follow the proper procedures, they can actually cause a problem where none existed before. More contaminants could be released than if you had just left everything alone when an inadequate vacuum system is used. A poorly trained technician could also damage your duct work or your actual heating and cooling system. This can lead to a costly Brandon emergency air conditioning repair call.
A technician following the proper procedures should open all access ports to clean and inspect the entire system. The inspection should include a check for any asbestos. All carpet and household furnishings should be protected during the cleaning process. The vacuum equipment should be designed to either release exhaust outside of the house or equipped with a HEPA filter to trap all contaminants. While vacuuming the duct work, the technician should use brushes to dislodge dust and particles. Finally, the technician should reseal and re-insulate any access holes that may have been made during the cleaning process. Air duct cleaning is a service we offer at the highest levels of quality for our clients, so call today to find out more. Duct Cleaning Should Pass Visual Inspection
Once the cleaning service is completed, the technician should be willing to show you the results. All surfaces should appear clean to the naked eye, and all vents should be securely replaced. Some service companies will document their work using remote photography. Brandon air conditioning repair crews can have a look at your system when we are here for just such an occasion.
Because air duct cleaning can be expensive, costing up to $1000 depending on your system and your environment, it is important to prevent future contamination. Make sure you change your filters frequently and that you are using the proper size filter. Turn off your system and seal the ducts during construction and renovation projects.
