It\u2019s completely normal to have to dust once a month or so, but any more often than could be a sign of duct problems. The sooner that a layer of dust gathers on the surfaces of your home, the worse off your ductwork is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dirty or broken ductwork can contribute to dusty surfaces in a couple of different ways. First, dust gathers inside the network of ducts as time passes by. Duct cleanings every three to five years are advised. But as your ductwork ages, it can also develop small holes in the material that allow additional dust to get in. Eventually, clean airflow is stirring up the dust and blowing it back out into your rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lack of Heating or Cooling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Does it seem like your HVAC system is just not as effective anymore? It\u2019s possible that heated and cooled air is either getting trapped in your ductwork or escaping through the small holes in the material before reaching your home. The result can be that your home doesn\u2019t feel quite as comfortable as it used to.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, your HVAC system may try to work harder to make up the difference, resulting in much higher than usual energy costs. Keep in mind that inconsistent heating from room to room is likely because of damaged ductwork. A total lack of heating may point to a problem with your heater itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Increased Allergy Symptoms or Illnesses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even without noticing additional dust in your home, you may be getting sick more often or experiencing more severe allergy symptoms. This is because small particles of dust can trap bacteria and allergens, also allowing them to recirculate again and again. You\u2019re being bombarded by harmful particles that are negatively impacting your health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scheduling duct cleaning can help you feel better and sleep better.&nbsp;If you want to go a step further to boost your indoor air quality, talk to our team about a whole-house indoor air purifier. These unique systems can help eliminate nearly 100% of all harmful particles in your air. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Your Comfort Is Our Priority.
