Unless your home HVAC system is a ductless system, you have ductwork running throughout the walls and attic of your home; these ducts transport the treated air -- warmed or cooled -- from the HVAC unit to the various rooms in your home. These ducts can get very dirty throughout the year, but most never see how dirty they are, as they are hidden away. The one symptom of dirty ducts that you will usually see is a layer of dust and dirt building up on the output and input vents.
Making sure that your duct system is clean is very important, not only to ensure that the air circulating in a home is clean and free of contaminates, but also to keep your HVAC system running smoothly and efficiently. HVAC systems run by pulling in untreated air, treating it (hot or cold), and pushing the air back out into the rooms of a home or building. While the air gets pushed through a series of filters, air filters quickly get blocked and do not filter every bit of the contaminates from the air. As the air ducts eventually also become clogged, this will put strain on your system; the more the strain, the more energy that your system uses to put out less efficiently treated air.
By simply scheduling a duct cleaning, you can avoid both HVAC inefficiencies and unhealthy dirty air. While it is recommended that homeowners schedule a yearly duct cleaning, this can sometimes be pushed to every 2 years, as long as your HVAC system is getting the rest of its scheduled maintenance (twice per year). With just one duct cleaning per year, you will notice the difference in your health (allergy and asthma symptoms can be significantly decreased), and you will also see a difference in your energy bills.
