With the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimating that most people spend between 60 and 90 percent of their time indoors, the need for fresh, clean air is very clear. Understanding the need and meeting it, however, can be two very different things. Fortunately, there are many things people can do to enjoy fresher and healthier air inside their homes: from developing a good cleaning routine to using air purifiers, from ventilating a house to replacing vacuum filters. One very important task not to be overlooked is the air conditioning and heating system cleaning.

There are many reasons to add air duct cleaning to a household routine, and these are the top five reasons:

Cleaner Air. Keeping air ducts clean and dust free can definitely improve the air quality inside a house. Dust and other dirt settles in air ducts when they are not regularly cleaned on a schedule. When the air flows through the ducts, it carries the dust and dirt out with it for us to breathe.

Less Allergens. If someone living in a household should have allergies, keeping air ducts clean is very important for their comfort. From dust mites and pollen to mold and more, regular air duct cleaning can reduce allergens that circulate through a home thanks to a heating or cooling system.

Improved Smell Inside a Home. Many times, an unpleasant smell drifts out when the heat or air system is turned on and running. This can be mold and other bacteria that have set up housekeeping in the air vents. No one has to put up with this odor, as a schedule for duct cleaning and disinfecting can make bad smells a thing of the past.

Saving Money. Anytime air ducts are not kept on a cleaning schedule, dust is going to build up. These systems are much less efficient at cooling and heating when they are dirty. In fact, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that even less than .04 inches of dust in a cooling system's coils can lessen efficiency by as much as 21 percent. Keeping air ducts clean can help you to save on your energy bills.

System Protection. Did you know that most central heat and air conditioning systems break down because simple maintenance has not been preformed on them? It's estimated that this happens to nine out of ten systems. Take good care of your unit and save yourself a ton of money.
