Heating and cooling systems can become inefficient do to dust buildup and potentially exacerbate health conditions such as asthma and allergies. Ducts can be filled with construction materials, mold, dust and pollens. Homeowners can use duct cleaning to lower electric and gas bills and keep their living spaces clean.
9 out of 10 system failures are caused by dirt and dust according to the Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service. One of the functions of the fan, located inside of your air handler, is to keep the heat exchanger cool. Accumulated dirt and debris can reduce the CFM (cubic feet of air per minute) by as much as 50%! This is the most common cause of cracks in heat exchangers. Having your HVAC system cleaned may prevent pre-mature breakdown & aging of your heating and cooling system.
The EPA states that a buildup of only .042 inches of dirt on a heating coil can result in a decrease of efficiency of 21%. A clean air conveyance system will keep an HVAC system running efficiently and reduce heating and cooling costs.
Cleaning dryer vents is another service that can be done with duct cleaning equipment. Clogged dryer vents represent a serious fire hazard. As the dryer vent becomes occluded with very combustible lint, it decreases the dryer’s efficiency and can increase the heat in the vent to the point of actually causing the lint to ignite.
If you're using a truckmount or portable as your vacuum source we also recommend using our Dry Vac Dustdowners part # AH128 - 2", andAH127 - 1.5" to prevent dust from damaging components or being ejected into the customer's home.

OR two electric compressors "Y'ed" together increased cfm so you will not have to wait for the compressor to catch up. 12 CFM required if you do not have have to wait for the compressor to catch up with your cleaning.
