Consider cleaning your duct –
- If you get a burning/musty smell while turning on your furnace for the first time.
- If you notice dust accumulating on your furniture quickly after cleaning.
- If you install a central air conditioner or a new furnace recently.
- If any of your family members suffer from asthma or allergies.
- If you welcome some furry pets to your home recently.
- If there are any signs of mould on the ductwork.
- If you recently moved into a new house.
Keeping a dust-free clean indoor is crucial to maintain a healthy environment. You have no idea what can accumulate inside your duct behind your back. There could be a pile of mould, fungus, construction debris, dirt, hair, fur, food, and other waste inside the duct.
As a result, when you inhale air, it may seem okay but you are actually inhaling some very dusty air. It’s not good for your respiratory system. Furthermore, dust will restrict your HVAC system from working properly. This restriction may waste your energy when you cool or heat your home.
