Just like your HVAC system, your air ducts need proper maintenance to stay in shape. They transfer cooled and heated air throughout your home, but sometimes mold and other allergens can lead to harmful buildup. The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) suggests cleaning your air ducts every 3 to 5 years, but if you or your family suffer from allergies, or you have pets, it’s wise to have them inspected more often by our trusted team at Aire Serv of Central Shenandoah Valley.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), indoor air can be up to five times as polluted as outdoor air. Airborne pollutants can get recirculated back into your home if your air ducts aren’t properly cleaned.
Having your air ducts cleaned is an important step to take when:

Proper sanitization will kill the active mold and stop it from spreading in the future.
