I never provided much thought to the importance of the ductwork until recently. While I was conscientious about filter swings plus scheduling service for the furnace plus cooling system, I failed to consider the importance of the duct system. The concealed network of pipes delivers heated plus cooled air to the numerous rooms of the home plus returns the stale air back to the furnace plus cooling system. The integrity of the ductwork directly affects comfort plus indoor air quality, then keeping the ductwork scrub optimizes the efficiency, capacity plus reliability of the heating plus cooling equipment. When I noticed a musty smell plus an unregular amount of dust circulating throughout the house, I realized that there were some troubles with system performance. During the winter, it was necessary to raise the thermostat setting numerous times. The furnace ran just about non stop plus yet the home was never quite comfortable, and plus, there was a significant difference in the temperature from one room to another. I researched my complaints plus learned that the cause was most likely a buildup of contaminants inside the ductwork. I started calling the numerous Heating and A/C suppliers in the local part to find one that included ductwork services. Ductwork testing, cleaning plus sealing require specialized training, tools plus technology. The supplier I chose provided a thorough diagnostic of the air ducts plus found an accumulation of dust, dander, bugs, webs, construction debris, mold growth plus even a decomposing rodent. Whenever the furnace or cooling system started up, those allergens were becoming airborne plus getting spread into my family’s breathing air. Fortunately, the duct cleaning process fixed the troubles.
