Experienced Duct Cleaning Ensures Pure Air, Steady Airflow

A thorough cleaning should involve every aspect of your ventilation to ensure maximum benefits. Your technician should clean the air ducts, the vent openings and grilles, and even your HVAC system’s air handler. Almost all of the air inside circulates throughout the ductwork at one point, which means airborne debris and contaminants could spread everywhere if overlooked. Additionally, it can be difficult to access some of the air ducts, so certified cleaning frequently uses dedicated tools and equipment capable of removing dirt, debris and other pollutants from the furthest segments of the ductwork. Let’s go over what you can expect from duct cleaning in Bethel Park.

• Complete an exhaustive inspection: Before we get to work, it’s beneficial to have a greater understanding of the contaminants in your ventilation system. The process begins with a detailed inspection so we have time to recognize any problem areas, leaks or other specific issues. We’ll explore inside every air duct as well as the return and supply vents. If something is too difficult to reach by hand, cameras can be used to conclude the inspection.
• Reduce the ductwork’s air pressure: While we utilize powerful vacuum equipment to extract dust and pollutants stuck in the ventilation, it helps to make the environment of the ductwork more conducive to the cleaning process. We seal the vents and attach the vacuum to the air handler, generating negative air pressure and helping us to clean out as much debris as possible.
• Scrub vents and registers to unlodge dirt and debris: Higher levels of humidity and microbes will sometimes make buildup harder to get rid of. Every vent is unsealed and scrubbed with tools like brushes and compressed air. This helps dislodge old debris, making it easier for the vacuum.
• Clean any other ventilation accessories: A few areas of your HVAC system aren’t strictly related to the ventilation, but will sometimes still impact airflow and the overall indoor air quality. We’ll clean or replace the air filter and clear out the outdoor unit’s condensate drainage system.
