Ductwork was an amazing innovation that started to be routinely included in new construction around fifty years ago. This was because of the new central air conditioners which were becoming so popular. Whether it’s cooled air or heated air flowing through your ducts, they’re a great way to keep your home at an even, comfortable temperature.
But because they are enclosed, it’s impossible for you to see exactly what’s going on inside them… or what’s accumulating inside them. That makes it easy to ignore them, which can allow big problems to develop. Having your ducts cleaned can have major benefits for you, your home, and your HVAC system. Why? For starters, dust can really decrease HVAC efficiency.
