Indoor air pollution is now listed by the Environmental Protection Agency as the fourth greatest environmental threat to Americans. When your heating and cooling system is running, airborne contaminants are being drawn into your duct system. Over a period of time, these harmful contaminants will eventually build up inside your air ducts. By having our experts provide Fairbanks duct cleaning, you can turn your home into a clean breathing haven. It will also help reduce your heating and cooling costs and can even extend the life of your heating and cooling equipment.
When was the last time you had your ducts cleaned?
If the answer is anything but “within the past four years,” it’s been too long.
Here’s Why…
- Studies by the EPA have shown that indoor air quality can be anywhere from 2 to 100 times worse than the outdoor air quality.
- Children are more likely than adults to be affected by polluted air; they breathe faster, inhale more air per unit of body weight and are closer to the ground where concentrations are higher. (Dept. of Consumer Affairs)
- One out of every six people who suffer from allergies does so because of the direct relationship to the fungi and bacteria in the air duct systems. (Total Health & Better Health Magazine)
- 90% of heating and cooling system failures are caused by dust and dirt. (Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service)
- The elderly, asthmatics and people with respiratory problems, such as allergies and lung diseases, are more sensitive to pollutants. (Dept. of Consumer Affairs)
- One millimeter of dirt on a heating or cooling coil can decrease its efficiency up to 21%. (Environmental Protection Agency)
