Look out, there is danger lurking in the ducts and you may not even know it! Poor air quality, mold, and mildew is serious for commercial and residential buildings. It affects your home, business, clients, employees, and yourself. Health, productivity, and expenses are all affected by harmful HVAC and air duct systems. Mold remediation is covered by several institutions and professionals who are subject matters in everything mold. I am not an expert, but I do have experience in mold and know the importance of keeping your HVAC Ducts clean and free of mold.
An HVAC system is designed to get rid of the dirt that is harmful and replace it with good clean air. It does not matter if it is cool or hot air, it is important that everyone is getting clean air. Would you want to live and work in a building that always smells like mold, damp, miserable? This is what you will feel if the ducts are not clean. Based on what the room or building is used for, most building codes state that they are in the rooms are cleaned from the old air and exchanged with the good air about five to 15 times every hour. When your HVAC system is clean, the air inside is improved every time it is exchanged for new air. The air quality indoors is reduced with each exchange when the HVAC system is not cleaned properly and has mold, allergens, soot, mildew, or any other contaminants.
Through a proper cleaning of the HVAC air ducts, it will reduce the issues of the majority of contaminants in the HVAC system. Sometimes, it may remove the chances of any recontaminations completely. Many times, when a building is being cleaned of contaminants, it is overlooked that the HVAC system is still running. That means, as the air is being exchanged, all those contaminants or being moved around by the moving air. Which means, it is not cleaned from the contaminants. Instead, they are relocated through the ducts. IAC Pros ensures the building’s HVAC systems and air ducts are completely clean of the harmful air and mold before leaving, which is why for over 30 years the Tri-State and Long Island’s commercial building owners and residential owners have trusted them for their air care.
