Is Your Fort Wayne Area Home in Need of Duct Cleaning?Do you need duct cleaning performed in your Fort Wayne area home? Some experts suggest that keeping up on your filter changes is enough to keep your indoor air quality at a healthy level. While proper filter maintenance will keep dust and debris from getting into your ductwork, there are times when a duct inspection and cleaning are necessary.

If you have recently purchased a home, a duct inspection will help assure clean air in your new house. In a newly built home, drywall dust may be spread throughout the system because many home builders don't clean the ductwork after construction is completed. In an older home, duct inspections are important as well. There's no telling how well the previous owners took care of the system. If they used cheap replacement filters with low MERV values, or had leaky ducts that allowed infiltration of dirty air, there could be significant dust buildup in the ducts.

If you have never had your ductwork inspected, you should. The inspection doesn't cost much and can quickly identify if you need a duct cleaning. The cleaning process is done with specialized machinery and covers every part of the system, from the intake to the duct vent covers. This means that dust and debris will be removed from the furnace blower, the blower motor, the evaporator coils in the air conditioning system, and any other surface that air will travel over or through before entering your living spaces.

A duct cleaning will remove all of the potential allergens from the inside of the ducts as well as increase the efficiency of the entire heating and cooling system. Some DIYers think they can perform this type of service themselves, but a poorly cleaned duct system can damage the blower motor and cost thousands of dollars in damage.
