Duct Cleaning in Albany

Keep Your Albany Home Healthy with Air Duct Cleaning

Your heating and cooling system is comparable to an important organ in your body—your lungs. It’s like a breathing mechanism for your home, drawing air in and out.

But your home’s lungs may be taking in polluted air, according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. In some instances, your Albany home’s indoor air quality could be poorer than outdoors.

Your HVAC system can collect contaminants such as dust. And these particles can be circulated around your home as often as five to seven times a day. This can cause health problems, especially if one of your family members is affected by allergies or asthma.

Revitalize your ducts with HVAC cleaning services from D.A. Bennett Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning. You’ll breathe easier knowing all our quality cleaning services are upheld by a one-year, 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.*

Our knowledgeable, NATE-certified professionals will inspect and clean parts such as:

Supply/return air ducts and registers

Grilles and diffusers

Not only can duct cleaning help reduce allergy issues, it could make your HVAC system run more efficiently. A clean system is less likely to break down and may even last longer.

Signs You Need to Schedule Duct Cleaning Service
How do you know when you’re due for an air duct cleaning? The National Air Duct Cleaners Association advises doing it every three to five years.

The organization has a simple rule of thumb—if your vent system looks dirty, it probably is.

Although much of the ductwork in your home is obscured, you can examine the supply and return vents. Are they dusty? Lift off a vent cover and inspect the ductwork. Is the metal covered in dust?

Here are a couple other clues you’re overdue for an extensive cleaning:

Mold has been discovered in your furnace, air conditioner, heat pump or air handler.

Vents emit dust when your heat or air conditioning switches on.

Dust, dirt or pet hair is jammed in vents.

Your home is excessively dusty despite constant cleaning.

Your home was recently built, had a major renovation or sustained water damage.

Energy expenses are getting bigger despite thermostat settings staying the same.
