Are Your Ducts In Order?

Did you know, your ventilation system is often the biggest culprit in poor indoor air quality Inspecting the duct work in your facility or home should be a high priority. In most cases, the HVAC system has been operating for some time without much attention. Dirty ducts can circulate odors, contaminants such as mold, and irritating dust throughout your building or home.

Keeping the HVAC and duct work clean can potentially extend the life span of the equipment by allowing it to operate at peak condition, which may help save you money. Duct cleaning may not always be necessary.  SERVPRO of Northern Las Vegas can make recommendations about the best way to address any indoor air quality concerns. This can help save you money and provide peace of mind on the health of your HVAC system and duct work.

In some circumstances, such as after fire, smoke or suspected mold growth, duct cleaning becomes an essential part of the cleanup process. In these cases, SERVPRO of Northern Las Vegas can often restore the HVAC system and duct work to pre-damage condition. If you have a fuel burning furnace, stove or fireplace, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends they be inspected for proper functioning, and be serviced before each heating season to protect against carbon monoxide poisoning.

The SERVPRO Duct Cleaning System is proven and cost efficient. Unlike the majority of duct cleaning services, SERVPRO of Northern Las Vegas uses a portable ventilation and air duct cleaning system to examine duct work and make a clean sweep, removing years of dust and grime.

• The process begins by using a roto-brush, which automatically adapts to the duct’s shape and diameter while traveling through the duct, removing debris and filth.

• A powerful push-pull air delivery and collection system transfers the debris from the ducting to a filter.

• Air is filtered through a HEPA filtration system, removing 99.97 percent of the particles in the air stream. HEPA filters capture debris and keep the indoor environment clean.
