Air Duct Cleaning Services

If you are wondering why Air Ducts should be cleaned, wonder no more, the simple fact that dirty duct works means a dirty home should be enough. If your Air Ducts are not cleaned then more than likely you have funny odors, dusty scents and maybe even moldy smells circulating in your home.

You might also find members of your family with difficulty breathing all because dirty Air Ducts accumulate allergens and irritants, that is why Safe House recommends getting an Air Duct cleaning every 3-4 years.

The steps that we take to thoroughly clean your ducts are as follows, our team first does a complete inspection of both your system and ductwork to determine the extent of work that needs to be done. If for any reason our guys find any type of mold, fungus or bacterial growth, we provide specific sanitizing, mold remediation and disinfectant treatment in addition to the basic cleaning. Our cleaning method is made up of a two-part cleaning that we perform starting with introducing a rotary brush into your ducts knocking all of the dust, hard dirt and debris off the Duct Walls. Then we use a portable high pressure, HEPA-filtered vacuum to suck up everything knocked off with the brush and or anything residual that may have been left behind.

Dryer Vent Cleaning

As your dryer vent becomes clogged, drying time gradually increases. While you may not notice the extra few minutes at first, the drying cycle will continue to take longer as the vents become more clogged until you eventually have to run a second cycle in order to dry clothes completely.If you’re spending extra time to dry clothes completely due to a clogged dryer vent, you can bet you’re also spending extra on utilities. Extended or extra drying cycles also mean your clothes will be subjected to more wear and weathering. 

Some of the reasons to clean your dryer vent are:

-Moldy, Lint-Ridden Clothing: A clothes dryer with a dirty vent will impact the quality of your drying experience in several ways. First off, a dryer with a clogged vent is going to take longer to dry fabrics. As a result, a load that’s set for an hour will be damp when the cycle is over. Furthermore, a backed-up vent will result in greater lint accumulation regardless of how often you clean the lint trap.

-Unusually high utility bills: Conservative estimates maintain that an average dryer will use at least $0.75 worth of electricity during a standard drying cycle. A dryer with a dirty or clogged vent can take twice as long to achieve acceptable results. This means that a typical household will waste at least $100 on electricity in a year. Even if the padded utility bill doesn’t concern you, the needless carbon emissions should.

-Fire Hazards: According to the National Fire Protection Agency, anywhere from 15,000 to 18,000 structure fires are caused by dirty dryer vents every year. Lint buildup alone is a disaster just waiting to happen. Even something as harmless as static electricity can quickly spark a massive conflagration under the right circumstances. Overworked dryers that are close to the edge due to clogged vents can easily blow a circuit and start an electrical fire.
