Protect your indoor air quality with a professional cleaning of your HVAC system. Remove dust, dirt, allergens, pet hair, and other debris that build up in your air ducts over time and improve the quality of air circulating in your home. Get peace of mind knowing that you and your family are breathing cleaner, healthier air!
Your air ducts are your home’s ventalation system, circulating air from room to room through your hot air vents and cold air returns. Over time, harmful contaminants collect in your air ducts such as dust, mites, hair, dirt, pet dander, pollen, mold spores and debris. When you run your heat or air conditioning, your home “breathes.” With each breath, these contaminants get recirculated through your home. They land on surfaces causing you to have to dust more, and they become airborne impacting the quality of the air you breathe.
If anyone in your home suffers from allergies, cleaning your air duct system is one of the best things you can do to reduce symptoms. Air duct cleaning is not something you can DIY, but it is one of the most affordable home improvements you can make! Professional air duct cleaning is the process of cleaning each and every inch of ductwork to remove contaminants to produce a healthier living environment and a more efficient HVAC system.
Your HVAC system moves a tremendous amount of air through your home each day. Modernistic uses a powerful truck-mounted air duct cleaning unit to remove harmful contaminants from your system, so that the air it circulates is clean and healthy. Just like eating right or engaging in regular exercise, routine air duct cleaning is an important practice for maintaining a healthy home.
One in five Americans suffer from allergy symptoms related to allergens found in indoor air, which can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air. Air Duct Cleaning removes the allergens (dust mites and pollen) that build up in your HVAC system over time. Pair this service with Carpet Cleaning for best results, as your carpet is your home’s largest air filter.
The EPA ranks indoor air pollution among the top 5 health risks Americans face, plus we spend the vast majority of our time indoors. That’s why most families should get their air ducts professionally cleaned every 2-5 years – more often for families suffering from allergies or other health risks. Take care of the air you breathe by treating yourself to a professional Air Duct Cleaning.
If you find yourself dusting frequently, this is the best indicator that it is time for a professional cleaning. Go straight to the source, your Air Ducts, and remove harmful contaminants to avoid them recirculating in your home. Dust particles aren’t just harmful to your lungs. They become embedded in your carpet fibers, especially along the edges of each room, and can cause permanent damage to your carpet.
The build-up of dust and debris in your HVAC system causes restrictions and makes your furnace work overtime to push or pull air through the clogged ductwork. If it has been a while since your last Air Duct Cleaning, your system may be working two to three times as hard as it needs to keep up. Having your Air Ducts cleaned improves efficiency, which will prolong the life of your furnace, and can even turn into energy savings by reducing heating and cooling costs!
Modernistic’s NADCA certified Air Duct Team uses the power vacuum and air sweep air duct cleaning method in our Residential Air Duct Cleaning, which is the most powerful and effective approach in the industry. This is a “push-pull” method, where a large-diameter vacuum is attached to the trunk line of the furnace, putting the home under negative pressure. This sucks debris out of the system into our truck and is the “pull.” We also used high-pressure air tools to loosen and “push” debris from the mouth of each register back toward the vacuum line. For most homes, we use a truck-mounted system, however portable units are available for circumstances that cannot be accessed by the truck.
Here’s an overview of the steps the Modteam will take during your cleaning:
In preparation for your Air Duct Cleaning appointment, please do the following:
Absolutely! We recommend cleaning your air ducts first and then the carpet afterward. This way our air duct crew is not walking on your fresh, clean carpet. However, if there is no alternative option, our crew always wears booties to protect your home. For convenience’s sake, we are happy to offer carpet and air duct cleaning appointments in the same day. In this case, the air duct cleaning crew will arrive in the morning and the carpet cleaning crew will arrive in the afternoon.
HVAC systems use ductwork to move air throughout your home. A hot air vent pushes air either from your furnace or air conditioning unit into your home. The cold air return is where air is drawn into your furnace system to be heated or cooled.
Air Duct Cleaning is a key factor in maintaining the indoor air quality in your home. To maintain an efficient HVAC system, NADCA recommends getting your air ducts inspected at least once a year and having them cleaned as needed. Here are some variables that may mean you need more frequent service:
Additionally, here are some signs that it may be time to have your air ducts cleaned:
If you notice a bad smell coming out of your air ducts, it is possible that a critter may have gotten stuck and perished. Our crews are equipped to address this concern for you – be sure to choose this option when scheduling your appointment. Many customers in this situation opt for the sanitizer to be applied after the animal is removed to address the remaining bacteria and odor.
Over the years, our technicians have recovered countless items from air ducts: Car keys, wedding rings, money, toy cars and a huge collection of bouncy balls. It is helpful if you have an idea for them about which vent the item was lost in. However, if you’re not sure, they can play detective. Be sure to choose to add this item to your quote when scheduling.
