Do you know what’s hiding in your ducts?
In today’s air-tight homes, indoor air quality is
a growing concern. Most household dust contains dust
mites, mold, mildew, pollen and animal dander. Many
of these contaminants are circulated through the central
air systems in your home and can aggravate the symptoms
of asthma and allergies.
So just how much dust and dirt can be in your home’s
duct system? On average, duct cleaning removes five
to six pounds of dust, dirt, debris, pollen and other
contaminants.
What could we remove from your ducts?
- Allergens and contaminants, including mold and
fungi
- Pet hair
- Construction materials that over the years may
have created a "cold spot," or airflow blockage
- Food like breadcrumbs and cereal that may grow
mold and bacteria
- Small toys and other objects
Let us do the dirty work!
At Budget Heating & Air, we offer a superior duct
cleaning service that uses the powerful yet flexible
Rotobrushâ,
which easily cleans all types of duct construction (e.g.,
flex duct, round metal ducts, square metal ducts, fiberboard)
including right angle turns, reducers and multiple bends
found in most types of duct systems.
The Rotobrushâ
is the only video-assisted cleaning method available
that brushes and vacuums at the point of contact, eliminating
the use of harsh chemicals. You are left with the assurance
of fresh, clean and virtually contaminant-free air in
your home.

What is duct cleaning?
Duct cleaning refers to the cleaning of various
heating and cooling system components of forced air
systems, including the supply and return air ducts and
registers, grilles and diffusers, heat exchangers, heating
and cooling coils, condensate drain pans, fan motor
and fan housing and the air handling unit housing.
If not properly installed, maintained an operated, these
components may become contaminated with particles of
dust, pollen or other debris. If moisture is present,
the potential for microbiological growth is increased
and spores from such growth may be released into your
home’s living space. Some of the contaminants may cause
allergic reactions or other symptoms in sensitive people
if they are exposed to them. It is important that all
components of the system is cleaned. Failure to clean
a component of a contaminated system can result in re-contamination
of the entire system, thus negating any potential benefits.
You should consider having your ducts cleaned if:
- There is substantial visible mold growth inside
hard surface ducts or on other components of your
heating and cooling system
- Ducts are infected with rodents or insects
- Ducts are clogged with excessive amounts of
dust and debris and/or particles are actually released
into your home from your supply registers
How often should I have my ducts cleaned?
On average, you should have your ducts properly cleaned
every four to five years, or more often if:
- You or a family member suffers from allergies
and asthma
- You have young children and/or pets
- You or someone else in your home smokes
- You suspect that debris may be contributing
to poorer indoor air quality
- There is water contamination or damage to your
home heating and cooling system
Consider having your ducts cleaned immediately if
you’ve recently:
- Moved into a new home
- Completed home renovations
- Installed a new furnace or central air conditioning
system

Healthy Air. Healthy Living.
Indoor air quality is a vital component of your
home’s heating and cooling system. You’ve probably
heard about the impact air quality can have on your
health, especially on those who suffer from
allergies.
However, better indoor air quality also has another
benefit. It makes your home more comfortable and
welcoming. You’ll feel warmer in the winter and
cooler in the summer, which means lower utility

Poor indoor air quality can threaten your health
(HEADLINE) Most people spend over 90% of their time
indoors, not knowing that the air they are breathing
may be more polluted than the air outside. The
Environmental Protection Agency has reported that
indoor air pollution levels can be 100 times higher
than the air outdoors.
Even in the cleanest homes, the air you breathe can
be littered with dust, pollen and other harmful
contaminants. A cubic foot of air can have as many
as 30 million pollutants - particles so small,
they're invisible. And, in this case, it's what you
can't see that can hurt you.
Discover clean air solutions for your entire home
(HEADLINE) Breathing contaminated air puts the
health of you and your family at risk. In fact, the
American College of Allergists says that 50% of
illnesses are caused or aggravated by polluted
indoor air. So take control of your indoor air
quality by reducing pollutants that can contribute
to headaches, lung irritation and fatigue, as well
as more long-term conditions like asthma, allergies
and infections diseases.
Thankfully, you can help protect the health of your
family and improve the comfort of your home.
Installing an air cleaning system as part of your
heating and cooling system will ensure fresher and
cleaner indoor air.
Air cleaners remove harmful contaminants like
pollen, smoke, bacteria, viruses, mold and dust from
the home environment. As air is drawn to the central
forced-air heating and cooling system, it passes
through the air cleaner where the particles of dirt
and dust are trapped. The clean air is then
re-circulated throughout your entire home.
Not all air cleaners are the same. The typical
furnace filter is simply not enough. It only traps
very large particles that you can see, things like
dirt and hair, but it removes less than 20% of the
pollutants in your home. High efficiency air
cleaners are up to 99% effective at removing
particles you can't even see from the air your
family breathes. Call us today to find out more
about our indoor air purification products and
services!
