Improve Air Quality

While you may not always think about your air duct system, it is having a constant impact on your health.

According to the National Air Duct Cleaners Association, an average home collects 40 pounds of debris, dirt, allergens, and more every year.

Each time your system circulates air through your home, particles that have accumulated in your air ducts also make their way into your lungs, embed themselves in your fabrics, and have an overall negative impact on your home and your health.

If your air conditioner smells, or your heater has an odor, that is a sign that you should get your ducts inspected and cleaned.

Lower Utility Bill

Unfortunately, when debris builds up in your HVAC system, it is forced to expel much more energy which both increases your energy consumption while decreasing the life of your system. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, as much of 40% of the energy used by HVAC systems is completely wasted. When your air ducts are lined with debris and clogged, then your HVAC system is forced to work much harder while yielding less results.

When your air conditioner coils are dirty, there is less surface area for air to flow through, thus making your air conditioning system work harder as well. All of these systems must be maintained in order to keep your utility bill down.

When you have your system cleaned and serviced by experienced professional duct cleaning companies like Top Star, you increase the efficiency of your system, as it is not working overtime to distribute heat and air conditioning, therefore lowering your monthly bill and extending the life of your furnace and air conditioner.

Reduce Allergies

If allergies, asthma, and other respiratory issues are affecting your family, getting your air ducts cleaned may be a good solution to solving these issues and improving the health of your family. Up to 20% of the population suffers from breathing and health issues caused by allergens floating throughout their home.

These allergies can be derived from pollen, pet dander, airborne dust, dust mites, smog, and more, causing allergies, ear, eye, and throat irritation, headaches, congestion, and other uncomfortable conditions.

When you think about how your HVAC system works, every time your air conditioner or furnace turns, air is blown through your duct system. When air is being forced through a passage, it naturally blows around whatever is in the duct: allergens, dust and debris.
