Whether your house is old or new, cleaning your air ducts is vital to your health. Newly constructed homes can have sheetrock insulation and other artifacts that can build up and create interruptions to the airflow in your air ducts. According to the EPA, a buildup of less than half an inch of dirt on a heating and cooling coil can decrease the efficiency by 21%.
Whenever the heating and cooling systems operate, contaminants, dust, and pollution settle in the ducts which makes them dirty. Over time these contaminants build up inside the ductwork, creating an ideal breeding ground for mold, bacteria, dust mites, fungus, and other microbes. You can guarantee that the air you breathe inside your home is healthful by keeping your furnace and ductwork clean. Additionally, it helps your HVAC system operate more effectively.
Duct cleaning typically takes two to four hours. AusTex uses its special tools and equipment to perform air duct cleaning in Austin.
There are two types of cleaning methods:
In this method, the ducts are cleaned using a portable system that has a vacuum and hose attached to them. The technicians would carry them to a place where the ductwork cleaning is needed.
The brushes attached to the hose rotate and whip away any dust or debris and the vacuum sucks them with a power of 5,000 cubic feet per minute.
For heavy-duty cleaning, especially in commercial areas, truck-mounted systems are used where the powerful vacuums with a large hose are mounted on a truck. It sucks the dust and debris with a suction power of about 12,000 cubic feet per minute.
Besides portable and truck-mounted systems, some other methods are used too which include using rods that go deeper and collect all sorts of dust and debris. Octopus web with eight rubber fingers is used too which cleans the dirt smoothly.
At AusTex, we use all types of cleaning methods to ensure the proper cleaning of ductwork. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at (512)-522-0569.
Our team of professionals arrives with all the equipment needed for the cleaning process. We arrive at the exact time that is decided on the phone call with our agent. First of all, we discuss with customers if they have anything in mind or any queries related to the process. Then we assess the current condition of the vents, ducts, and HVAC system and develop a plan accordingly.
Then starts the actual cleaning process which includes setting up a vacuum hose in the vents. The powerful vacuum is turned on and the dust and debris are pushed towards the vacuum. We use long rods for going deeper, and octopus web for complete cleaning of vents. Next, we clean the coils and evaporator to clean any mold and bacteria stored in them. We also replace the air filters if they cannot be cleaned by the regular process.
We also take before and after pictures of the process for full satisfaction of the customer and walk them through each room to assess the situation of the vents after cleaning them. Our team clears any mess caused by the cleaning process and leaves the house as it was before.
