Mould and bacteria can easily circulate through the air when excessive humidity, dust and\/or a dirty duct system are present. Air duct cleaning services can dramatically improve air quality, resulting in improvements to your family\u2019s overall health.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What&#8217;s In Your Air?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-545\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drduct.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/A-dangerously-mouldy-white-wall.jpg\" alt=\"Does Duct Cleaning Prevent Health Problems?\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mould and mildew are nasty forms of fungi. Mould is formed from too much humidity, which can result from a lack of ventilation, poor rainwater drainage, or excessive dampness in the home. Mould can be found in basements, bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas. It can also get into your vents. Mould inhalation can create a host of health issues such as allergies, breathing problems, and migraines.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Excessive dust in the air vents can also cause allergies. When the air conditioner or heat is turned on, this &#8220;dirty air&#8221; starts to circulate throughout the home.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Health Effects<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-435\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drduct.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Girl-breathing-asthmatic-inhaler.jpg\" alt=\"Symptoms of Dust Mites Allergies\" width=\"460\" height=\"307\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Poor air quality is not to be dismissed. The air that you breathe enters your lungs and moves to your bloodstream. If the air in your home has bacteria and mould, it can cause respiratory issues such as asthma and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/bronchitis\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20355566\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bronchitis<\/a><\/strong>. More serious concerns include but are not limited to cancers, fatigue and migraines. Your skin may become dull as well. Aside from health problems, poor air can ruin furniture and household items over time &#8212; particularly upholstery.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Why Air Duct Cleaning Is a Good Idea<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-486\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drduct.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Ash-Tray-Cigarette.jpg\" alt=\"Second Hand Smoke May Fade Away but What It Leaves Behind in Your Ductwork Won\u2019t\" width=\"333\" height=\"499\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">There are many benefits to air duct cleaning. It is especially important to clean your ducts when:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">You have pets<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cigarettes are smoked inside the home<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">An occupant has extreme allergies<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are excessive paint or chemical fumes from home remodeling<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Clean ducts will provide better air quality and energy savings.
