Air Cleaning

Thursday, August 18th, 2011

Has anyone had the air system professional duct cleaning is in their house and ...?

.... Do you feel it was worth the worth doing and made a big difference? How many times have you had done, and what is the recommended duration of the company tells you that must be repeated. Excellent answer. Thank you. We change our furnace / air filters regularly. Even if they do not look that. dirty

If you regularly change your air filter, you probably do not need to have the ducts cleaned. You can remove a feeding air in a few stores around your house and see how they are dirty. If you have an air filter which you can remove it and check the pipes, you should do so as well. If you have flex duct, and he is old, the act of duct cleaning can damage resulting in the need to replace pipes. So check the first and then base your decision on what you see in the ducts. Once cleaned, if you change your air filters once a months during periods of intensive use of winter and summer, you can go for years before having your ducts cleaned (or not at all). My pipes are 20 years and as I changed the filter regularly, I have not had the need to have them cleaned. If you did fact, get several quotes from licensed contractors and check them with the BBB and the State Licensing Board for Contractors to ensure that they have not been reported for poor performance.
