Air Quality & Your Health
Many people have allergic reactions to pollen, bacteria, dust mites and mold. These particles, along with other invisible pollutants, settle in the air ducts and are re-circulated every time the furnace blower is operating. Cleaning and disinfecting your ductwork not only eliminates most contaminants but also can improve the efficiency of your air conditioner and furnace by improving air flow.

This poses a major health risk to those who suffer from allergies, asthma, immune system deficiencies and other chronic illnesses, as well as to small children and the elderly.
