Duct Cleaning | Theodore, AL | Head's Heating & Air

Sealing ducts against leaks are even more important if the ducts are located in unconditioned basements, attics, or also vented crawl spaces. Poorly sealed ducts cause you to lose air. This not only causes heating and cooling equipment to perform well below peak efficiency but also presents health concerns. Ducts may harbor contaminants such as mold, mildew, pet dander, dust, insects, webs, vermin, and also feces. Indoor air quality is the leading cause of respiratory problems and also allergies. If you or a loved one suffers from asthma or COPD duct cleaning and sealing may help make your air easier to breathe.

According to research performed by the US Department of Energy, somewhere between a quarter to half of the energy used for heating and cooling a home is wasted. About 20% to 30% of the air that flows through the average duct system is lost to holes and poor connections. The result is higher utility bills and an uncomfortable home. Dirt and debris in the HVAC system force it to work harder and shortens the life of the equipment. When a system is clean, it can more easily maintain ideal temperatures. This results in you using less energy as well as superior cost-effectiveness and greater temperature control.
