Air Duct Spring Cleaning: Why Should You Do It?

Mark J. Biel • March 22, 2022

Clean air ducts are vital to the efficiency of your HVAC system. As spring begins, there are many reasons why you should have them cleaned.

In this post,  air conditioning repair  experts at R.A. Biel Plumbing and Heating share the advantages of having your ducts cleaned.

Air Duct Spring Cleaning: Why Should You Do It?

Increase your home’s energy efficiency.  Keep your bills low and maximize your comfort by improving the energy efficiency of your HVAC system. You can do this by keeping your air ducts clean, which lessens the air drag caused by obstructions and clogs that strain your HVAC system. Furthermore, cleaning your air ducts in the spring also reduces the amount of dirt that gets trapped by your air filters.

Improve indoor air quality.  Spring isn’t a good time for people with seasonal allergies, so good indoor air quality (IAQ) is essential to households with family members suffering from allergies or other respiratory issues. Allergens and other contaminants can accumulate in your air ducts, which will affect your home’s overall IAQ. If your seasonal allergies aren’t letting up despite having cleaned every surface in your home, it’s probably best to call your trusted cooling and  heating repair  expert.

Prolong the lifespan of your HVAC system.  Keeping your air ducts clean increases the service life of your HVAC system. Dust, mold and other buildups can form on the other components of your HVAC system. By cleaning the ducts, your equipment won’t have to strain itself to circulate air. This means fewer problems and more savings in the long run.
