Benefits of Having Clean Ducts

Reports reveal that debris build-up in the forced air ventilation system of a home or business establishment can lead to the occurrence of contamination that is equal to or worse than the pollution outside. These contaminants may take the form of irritants and allergens that can put the health of people at risk, mainly very young children or elderly.

Contaminants come from a wide range of sources including dirt,  kitchen grease, fibers, dead skin cells and even vermin droppings. If you own a pet, their skin and fur dander may get to the ventilation ecosystem of your home. Aside from that, there are other contributors to pollution, such as paints, smoke from a cigarette, hair spray, deodorant, cleaning agents, and more.

You can gain a lot of benefits from clean fan units, vents, and ducts. That’s why it is important to keep them debris-free. When your fan units, vents, and ducts are clean, the harmful airborne particles circulating in your ventilation system will be reduced next to nothing. This can also reduce the possible inhalation of contaminants that can harm your lungs and that of your colleagues and family..

The Downside of Dirty Ducts and Furnace

Studies indicate that the accumulation of debris in the forced air ventilation system of residential or commercial properties can lead to contamination levels equal to, or even worse than outdoor pollution. These contaminants often manifest as irritants and allergens, posing health risks, particularly for vulnerable people in the home such as young children and the elderly.

Contaminants originate from various sources, including dirt, kitchen grease, fibers, dead skin cells, and even droppings from vermin. If you have pets, their dander from skin and fur may also find its way into your home’s ventilation ecosystem. Moreover, pollutants like paint, cigarette smoke, hair spray, deodorant, cleaning agents, and more contribute to the overall contamination.

Maintaining clean fan units, vents, and ducts can offer numerous benefits. By keeping them free from debris, you can significantly reduce the circulation of harmful airborne particles within your ventilation system. This, in turn, minimizes the risk of inhaling contaminants that could potentially harm your respiratory health, as well as the well-being of your family and colleagues.

Our Equipment Makes the Difference

Our services are centered around our specialized duct-trucks, which enable us to deliver high quality results. Equipped with cutting-edge Hypervac technology and powered by robust Briggs engines, our trucks boast incredible vacuum suction capabilities. This process is also known as setting your heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning system in negative air pressure.

To begin the cleaning process, we run a hose from the truck into your home, connecting it to the main ductwork. This allows us to drive out debris from your home and directly into the truck. For particularly stubborn debris that may have adhered to the duct surface walls, we employ specialized air pressure tools. These tools are highly effective at eliminating such debris, ensuring a thorough cleaning. Want to learn more about our trucks, check out this link.

Our commitment to perfection means that if the system is not perfectly clean after the initial process, we repeat it until we are confident that every nook and cranny is thoroughly cleaned. No space is too challenging for us to reach, including apartments and condos. Rest assured that our skilled technicians have the expertise to access any location.

Commercial Duct Cleaning

When it comes to commercial properties, the HVAC systems are typically located in different parts of the building, often on rooftops, and the venting is more complex and larger compared to residential properties. Our specialized trucks, equipped with larger tools and extended hoses, are used for efficient commercial duct cleaning. However, if certain areas are inaccessible for our trucks, we utilize compressed air tools and portable vacuum units to deliver a thorough cleaning. Our commercial duct cleaning services are tailored to meet the unique needs of businesses, and you can find more detailed information on our Commercial Duct Cleaning Saskatoon page.
