Is the air you breathe in your home making you sick? The quality of the air we breathe indoors has become an increasingly important environmental concern. Dust, dirt, pollen, animal dander, and other airborne contaminants are pulled into your duct systems everytime the furnace or air conditioner runs. These contaminants build up inside the ductwork over time and can help make your duct system an ideal breeding ground for mold spores, bacteria, fungus, mildew, dust mites, and other microbes. Each time the furnace or air conditioner is turned on, contaminants are spewed out and circulated throughout your home and affect the health and comfort of your family.
