Importance of Furnace & Air Duct Cleaning

Your HVAC system on your property influences the indoor environment. If the system is clean and functioning well, your indoor environment will be comfortable and have good air quality. On the other hand, if the system hasn’t been maintained well, the indoor air quality will be poor. At The Concord Group, we recommend regular furnace and air duct cleaning to get reliable performance from your system.

why is air duct and furnace cleaning important

Experts recommend cleaning furnaces and air ducts regularly to ensure they perform well. Dust and debris are some of the biggest enemies of the HVAC system and can cause a great deal of harm to it. Here are some reasons why regular cleaning is important:

Saves Energy Dust and debris form a thick layer around heat exchangers and other internal components. Since the furnace has to work harder to maintain the desired temperature, the system consumes more energy. A cleaner furnace and ducts will be more efficient so your system will consume less energy.

Air Flow Dirty furnaces and ducts don’t have efficient air flow. If the air filters are clogged with dust, the treated air won’t circulate properly. No matter how powerful your system is, dirty air filters will hamper the air flow.

Life Span Wear and tear take their toll on all appliances but a well-maintained and clean system experiences less friction and stress. It is more likely to function reliably and last for a long time. If you don't clean the furnace and ducts regularly, the accumulated dirt will compromise the components and shorten the appliance’s lifespan.

Indoor Air Quality The dust and debris in the system is a collection of hair, dead skin cells, pet dander, bacteria, pollen, and even mold spores. If you don’t clean the HVAC system, these compounds will continue to linger in the air and place your health at risk.

As you can see, furnace duct cleaning is very important and should be done regularly. Our professional duct cleaners will do a sweep of the entire system to ensure there are no missed spots. They will clean the furnace and all the filters carefully and replace damaged components if necessary.

Signs That You Need Air Duct Cleaning Services

Several signs can indicate you need to get air duct cleaning done. Just watch out for these signs and call a professional for help when you notice them:

There’s dust puffing out of the air vents when you switch the system on.
You can see pet or human hair trapped in the vents.
There’s a layer of dust coating the grill on the return air registers.
Your child or more vulnerable members of your family show signs of allergies.
The house becomes dusty too often.
You or your family members experience respiratory illnesses often.

All of these problems are a sign of an unclean furnace or ducting. A professional cleaning will make the indoor environment safer and much more comfortable.

dryer vent cleaning

Your dryer vent can collect dust, lint, and debris over time and become a fire hazard. It is important to clean it at least once a year. A professional cleaning will help remove all traces of dirt and debris from the vents and make sure the system is safe to use.

If you wash & dry clothes frequently, you might need to clean the dryer vent more often. For example, families with young children might need to get professional dryer vent cleaning done at least twice a year because they end up washing more clothes. Our experts will examine the vent and consider your requirements before recommending a good cleaning schedule.

Our experts will examine every corner of your system and clean it in an organized fashion. This ensures you don’t have to spend too much time cleaning these features and that you have cleaner and healthier indoor air.
