Cleaner Ducts, Cleaner Air
November 5th, 2009 | Author: Adriana Noton
When a furnace is running, air is traveling through the air ducts and being blown throughout the home or building. In these ducts, dirt, dust, pollen, dust mites, and other pollutants accumulate over time. As well, if the ducts become humid, there will eventually be significant growth of bacteria, mold, and other organisms. The air along with the pollutants are blown through the duct system and distributed in the rooms where people and pets eventually become ill. According to the USEPA, “the levels of some hazardous pollutants in indoor air have been found to be up to 70 times greater than in outdoor air.” People who have such conditions as allergies and bronchial problems such as asthma are susceptible to serious reactions. To keep the air in your home or businesses clean, one should have their air ducts cleaned at least twice a year.
