There are several myths related to air duct cleaning and sadly, many air duct cleaning services are speaking them as truth to sell their service
An air duct cleaning Buffalo expert recently posted an interesting article which has gained the attention of area residents who are thankful for the information. Though he earns his living in the air duct cleaning industry, Robert Garman, owner of DUCTZ, is a reputable service provider.
There are many different individuals and companies who advertize air duct cleaning services. Some are reputable and some are not. Here are some of the myths and truths about air duct cleaning that consumers should be aware of:
Myth: Air duct cleaning is recommended every year or two to eliminate dust and mold and prevent mold related illness
Truth: There is no recommended cleaning schedule; however the NADCA ACR 2006 Standard does have a recommended inspection schedule which for residential systems is the following:
Air Handling Unit – 1 year
Supply Ductwork – 2 years
Return Ductwork/Exhaust – 2 years
Myth: Discount air duct cleaning services only charge between $60 and $100 and the entire procedure is done within and hour or two
Truth: There is no reputable and qualified air duct cleaning service that can possibly do the job right for this price. This is a bait and switch technique, one of the most popular air duct cleaning scams being used today.
Air duct cleaning can cost $450 to $1,000 per HVAC system, depending on the services, size of the system and the level of contamination. The job will take four to eight hours to complete.
Myth: Dust mites live and multiply in the ductwork
Truth: Dust mites do not live in ductwork
Other items in Robert’s article include a guide as to whether or not air duct cleaning is necessary. The decision is typically based on the amount of dust a home produces and the type of ductwork in the home.
Other services typically offered by air duct cleaning companies includes applying duct sealant and sanitizers. Read Robert’s complete article to see what the EPA has to say about these services at http://www.airductcleaningbuffalo.com/
