Duct cleaning generally refers to a more extensive procedure than just cleaning the ducts themselves. A comprehensive duct cleaning will address HVAC system components including but not limited to grilles, diffusers, heat exchangers, cooling coils, supply and return air ducts, registers, and fan motor and air handler housings. Cleaning these components is part of proper HVAC maintenance, and if they’re not properly cleaned, you risk contamination of your HVAC system with dust, pollen and other debris. Mold may also form if moisture is present.
You may not be aware of it, but your attic could have an open insulation gap as large as 40 square inches. At this moment, it’s sucking expensive heated or cooled air out of your living space and into the attic. But don’t start searching for a jagged, four-foot breach in your ceiling, because the culprit is right before your eyes: The pull-down stairway that provides access to the attic. It’s an often overlooked source of wasted energy in a residence.
Choosing a contractor is really not as complicated as you might think. In fact, it can actually be a breeze, provided you follow these three trouble-saving tips:
Residential HVAC systems often include an air handler or related cooling and heating equipment installed in the attic. Most local codes require attic air handlers to be equipped with a pipe to drain away condensation that inevitably accumulates as the air conditioning process removes humidity from the air. A crisis situation quickly develops, however, if this drain pipe plugs and overflowing condensation soaks your ceiling, causing expensive damage as well as creating a welcoming environment for mold in the attic. An effective safeguard against this catastrophe is appropriately known as an HVAC ceiling saver. It consists of an attic drain pan installed under the air handler or evaporator coil to catch condensation overflow in an emergency. The drain pan drains condensation away into its own dedicated drain pipe, completely separate from the primary condensation drain.
