A yes
to any of these questions may mean it's be time to have your air duct
system professionally cleaned.
*Every
time your furnace or air conditioner runs, airborne contaminants are
pulled into your ducts. These contaminants include, but are not
limited to dust, dirt, pollen and animal dander. Over time, they
build up inside your
 ducts and start breeding mold, bacteria, mildew
and fungus.
These contaminants are then blown out
of the ducts, invade your home and affect the health of your family.
Your duct system
functions as the respiratory system of your home. When it becomes
contaminated and congested, it should be cleaned so it can “breathe”
normally and efficiently.
