Ducts Cleaning in Lititz, PA, and Surrounding Areas

Property owners, whether residential or commercial, have one thing in common regarding their property’s HVAC systems—ducts, vents, and filters that need cleaning.

Duct cleaning is not just about maintaining the efficiency of any installation but will also ensure that air quality is high in interior spaces. Understanding the need for duct cleaning and how often it should be performed will help a property owner make the right decisions for their home or business.

Duct Cleaning for Healthful Environments

Air quality is something that most people won’t compromise on; however, many would be surprised by how bad the air that comes from their HVAC vents, directly from split-type inverters or a home’s central air conditioners, is.

Air conditioning services can provide comprehensive cleaning services. These services remove all kinds of build-up from a system, including:

  • Dirt

  • Dust

  • Insect and animal waste

  • Tar from cigarettes

  • Pollen

  • Bacteria

  • Mold

  • Mildew

Although filters do remove particles from the air as it circulates through the HVAC system, they may not be able to contain all of the contaminants. Bacteria, mold, and mildew can all multiply when ducts and filters aren’t maintained. Even if the filters trap debris and small particles, the system may be less efficient than it could be. It will have to work harder to maintain the desired temperatures, which can lead to increased energy costs or shorter service life of the unit.

Just In Case Mechanical can clean out even the largest installations, including duct cleaning, filter cleaning, and cleaning around the central air conditioning unit. When indoor, outdoor, and ducting lines are all clear of dust, debris, and foreign objects, the property owners will end up with a highly efficient HVAC system with air quality that is just as good as when the unit was first installed.

How Often Should a Property Owner Have Their HVAC System Serviced?

For some commercial and residential property owners, duct cleaning must only be performed every 2 to 5 years. Still, giving an accurate time frame for every situation can be difficult. Various factors can contribute to the regular cleaning schedule, including the area where the property is located, the environment around the building, and even how often the air conditioner runs daily.

Filter and vent conditions indicate that it is time for a duct cleaning service. To determine if duct cleaning is needed, look at removable filters. Filters caked with dust need cleaning or replacing. Then, look at the air vents. Dark streaks and grime around vents mean filters are no longer doing their job, and the ducts could be excessively dirty, compromising air quality and AC function.

If it’s been a while since a property’s ducts were cleaned, it is worth having an inspection from a reputable HVAC services company. A technician can inspect the equipment to determine if a cleaning is needed. Further, they can plan a service schedule to ensure that the ducts and HVAC systems are always cleaned and maintained, allowing for an air conditioning system that is always ready to meet heating and cooling demands.
