Thanks to Clean Sweep for this episode of Tips from the Pros about professional duct cleaning.

You might not see the air ducts in your home. However, they play a critical role in moving heated and cold air throughout the property. When your ducts are clean and in good condition, you will enjoy fresh air and minimal indoor allergy symptoms. However, over the years, your ducts will naturally accumulate mold, dust, pollen, debris, and more. What are some of the benefits of professional duct cleaning?

Improve Indoor Air Quality

Particularly if you work from home, the air circulating through your ducts might be the only air that you breathe all day! Unfortunately, if you do not have your air ducts professionally cleaned, that air can contain dust, pet dander, dirt, allergens, and more. These pollutants will accumulate in your ductwork over time. When your heating or cooling system kicks on or off, you might be breathing them in. These substances are known to lead to sneezing, coughing, congestion, and other types of illness.

Better Efficiency

Energy efficiency is a big priority for many homeowners as the cost of heating and cooling spaces goes up. When you have a great deal of debris in your ducts, it can prevent your system from working as efficiently as possible. By having regular cleanings performed, you will make it as simple as possible for your HVAC system to work.

Get Rid of Lingering Smells

Do you sometimes notice a musty smell in your house? It might be the result of mildew in your bathroom, but if you can’t find a source, there is a good chance that the answer lies in your ductwork. Mold and mildew are prone to accumulating in vents and ducts, so having yours professionally cleaned can get rid of these lingering odors.

Prolong the Lifespan of HVAC Units

When your ductwork is dirty, your HVAC system will need to run for longer and work harder to maintain the temperature that you have set the thermostat to. Unfortunately, this leads to accelerated wear and tear. Over the lifespan of your unit, having dirty ductwork can dramatically lower the number of years it takes before you need to perform major repairs or replace your heating and cooling system.
