Our air ducts are the suppliers of hot and cold air throughout the year. Whether for your home, or place of business, our air ducts are essential for the smooth flow of air, and comfort. In fact, most people only look up at their ducts, when checking to see if a vent is open enough. Little thought goes into what goes on INSIDE the air duct.
You see, when air is constantly being circulated throughout a building, small particles of matter tend to collect on the walls, and insides of the ducts themselves. Some particles cling to the walls, and begin to collect there. Other particles break off and get blown throughout our rooms, only to be sucked into our lungs, or to collect on furniture, carpets, and floors.
Question: “What kinds of particles are you speaking of – dust?”
Answer: Yes, dust is one of them. In fact if your home or office is constructed of drywall, then drywall dust is most certainly one of these particles. Drywall dust is most easily noticed as a fine, white, dust like powder that tends to collect on television screens, computer monitors, and glass tables. It doesn’t naturally gravitate there; it is just that we tend to notice it more on those surfaces. In reality, it collects on our beds, carpet fibers, furniture upholstery, and in the noses, eyes, and lungs of our loved ones and pets.
Other particles collecting daily in our air vents include pollen, bacteria, dead bugs, dust, dust mites, mold, mildew, outside dirt, fiberglass insulation, household chemicals, pet dander, odors, smoke, and many other tiny matter that might be in the air.

Question: “What is the harm in breathing this indoor air pollution?”
Answer: There can be many symptoms associated with dirty air duct air. These include hay fever, and flu like symptoms, headaches, itchy eyes and skin, runny nose, watery eyes, and headaches. Some people, who already have asthma, or other respiratory ailments, report an increase in irritations, and symptoms.
Question: “I live in a brand new house. Should I get my air ducts cleaned?”
Answer: Yes – everyone should. Many times construction material like insulation, drywall pieces, and fiberglass can be accidentally left in a crawlspace, attic, or air duct. At least order an air duct inspection from Rancho Santa Margarita Carpet Cleaning Experts to see if your air ducts are truly clean, and particle free. If not, a full cleaning can commence, but at least you will have the peace of mind in knowing the condition of your air ducts.
Question: “How does your company go about cleaning my air ducts?”
Answer: Carpet Cleaning Experts in Rancho Santa Margarita uses commercial grade, high powered brushes to scrub the interior walls and floors of your air ducts. This loosens, and removes any harmful particles, and allows us to suck them up using an equally high-powered vacuum system. Any contaminants are then safely sealed in an airtight canister for later disposal.
