When you live in Florida, most homeowners rely on their home’s comfortable indoor temperature to escape from the oppressive heat and humidity. However, if your air conditioning system relies on ductwork to distribute cold air (and most central systems in Florida do), your ductwork plays a pivotal role in that air distribution.
Not only that, but neglected ductwork can contribute to low indoor air quality (IAQ). Just like AC maintenance, regular duct cleaning is an essential service in Florida, not an optional one. Let’s go over why scheduling this service is so important for both IAQ and AC efficiency and when you should schedule air duct cleaning.
Let us be blunt. Clean air is going to be a lot better for your home comfort and your HVAC system usage. Unfortunately, the modern home tends to have pretty poor air quality.
Locating and sealing off leaks in the ductwork is vital if you want to enjoy proper heating and cooling. Plus, ductwork full of leaks will result in higher utility bills and dust build-up inside your home.
Keeping your home comfortable requires more than just the right temperature setting on your thermostat—it also requires good air quality. Air that is too dirty or humid can’t cool down well. Likewise, air that is overly dry (not really a problem around here, we know) is hard to heat up.
The air in your home needs to be clean and clear of dirt and debris to keep your home comfort where it needs to be. Dirty air is going to impact your ability to keep cool, not to mention how icky it can feel to be in a house filled with airborne debris. This can be easier said than done though—how are you supposed to clean the air in your home? You can’t exactly use a dust rag or a vacuum.
Alright, be honest here: how often do you think about your ducts?
Living in Flordia pretty much demands the use of a whole-house cooling system. Central air conditioners and air-source heat pumps make up a large majority of those cooling systems being used in homes, and they share one thing in common: the utilization of ductwork in order to disperse cooled air throughout the house. if the ductwork that this system uses is not in great working condition, then you really cannot expect great comfort to follow.
