Environment People Residential Duct Cleaning

Your duct work functions as the respiratory system of your home. Once it becomes dirty and congested it must be cleaned, and in some cases sanitized, so it can breathe normally and efficiently once again.

Since 1980 we've cleaned thousands of air duct systems in homes in the Toronto area, ranging from brand new homes to houses over 100 years old. In all cases, the age of the home was not a factor. Every home that has an air duct system requires air duct cleaning.

Studies have shown that two out of three indoor air quality problems involve the HVAC system. Mold, pollen and dust are just a few of the ingredients that make up the refuse in your heating & air conditioning duct system. Duct cleaning provides allergy relief, eliminates odors, reduces dust & house work.

The removal of contaminants from your entire air duct system is recognized by industry experts as the most effective way to eliminate airborne pollutants. In addition to obvious health benefits, duct cleaning can help maintain a cleaner home.

Airborne contaminants are drawn through the duct work of the central air conditioning system via return air registers. Standard, throw-away fiberglass filters remove less than 7% of these particles, which means much of the rest settles in your air ducts.

If you question the need for air duct cleaning, take a look behind the return air grilles in the HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) system of your home. Many people have found that one glimpse into their air ducts provides all the evidence they need to initiate a thorough cleaning of the HVAC system.

A residential air duct cleaning job takes just a few hours and is a surprisingly clean and routine process. While making your home's air safer, duct cleaning can also reduce heating and cooling costs by allowing your system to operate more efficiently. Duct cleaning can also cut maintenance costs because a clean system has fewer breakdowns.

At Environment People, we use specialized vacuum equipment and compressed air, including an assortment of high-pressure air snakes, air whips and related tools to thoroughly clean your heating or air conditioning system. Cleaning of the furnace fan, motor, air conditioning (evaporator) coil and air filters are always included in every job. A complete cleaning is relatively inexpensive and can pay for itself in energy savings alone. We recommend that this service be completed at least once every three years.
