Clean Your Ducts And Remove The Dust

Is your home’s air making you sick? Dust, allergens, and even pet dander can build up in your air ducts, leading to poor indoor air quality. This can trigger allergies and asthma attacks and even contribute to respiratory problems.

One way to improve your indoor air quality is to maintain your air ducts. If you live in a home with central air conditioning, the airflow circulates through these ducts. Keeping them well-maintained reduces the number of pollutants in the air and also helps your air conditioner (AC) and furnace operate more efficiently.

At Foss Heating & Cooling, we work hard to keep you comfortable and safe! Call us today at 360-336-1517 or reach us online for a free consultation about your next project.

Why Clean Your Air Ducts?

Poorly maintained air ducts blow dust and other pollutants into your Anacortes home, triggering allergies and asthma attacks. Over time, indoor air pollution can lead to serious respiratory issues. The build-up of debris in the airflow also forces your equipment to work harder.

Clean Your Ducts and Remove the Dust

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), you should consider having your ducts cleaned if you say yes to one or all of these criteria:

• You have visible mold growth inside your ductwork or other parts of your heating and cooling system. Many sections of your HVAC system are not easily accessible or easy to inspect. Our team at Foss Heating & Cooling can inspect your system and determine if your ducts need cleaning.
• You see evidence of rodents or insects living inside your ductwork.
• Your ducts are clogged with dust and debris, releasing particles through the registers into your home and living areas.
• Someone in your home is experiencing symptoms similar to allergies, the cold, or the flu that may be related to your indoor air quality.

Air Duct Testing

Low pressure typically indicates tears and leaks in your air ducts. Those leaks allow pollutants to infiltrate your ductwork and drive up your energy expenses. Schedule an appointment today so one of our professionals can test the pressure.

If the pressure is too low, we can decide together whether it makes more sense to repair or replace the ductwork.

Repairing Your Air Ducts

Calling us right away if you detect a problem with your air conditioner, furnace, or ductwork often minimizes the chances of an inconvenient and costly repair. Don’t wait for a complete breakdown!

It could be a strange noise, patchy comfort, or suspicious odor—or perhaps your utility bills keep going up even though the rates are not increasing. Our licensed technicians will quickly troubleshoot the problem and find a practical solution.

At Foss Heating & Cooling, we only replace a part if necessary or if we can demonstrate significant cost savings. We can repair, maintain, and extend your existing ductwork to a new addition in your Anacortes home. We value your business and work hard to keep it!

Maintaining Your Air Ducts

Preventative maintenance plays a vital role in maintaining all your HVAC, plumbing, and electrical equipment. This includes your ductwork—allowing our team of experts to clean and seal the air ducts in your Anacortes home or business just makes sense.

As a general rule, we recommend cleaning your ductwork every three to five years—more often if you have pets in the home or someone who smokes. Scheduling annual tune-ups and inspections goes a long way toward protecting this investment.
