What Is Ductwork And Why Is Having Proper Ductwork Design And Installation So Important?

Your home or business’ ductwork is the channel that allows heating or cooling to flow throughout your space and adjust temperature as needed. It’s an extremely important part of keeping a home or office properly ventilated.

Lack of proper ductwork can lead to the following issues:

• Dirt- and dust-covered surfaces
• Poor air quality
• Uncomfortable temperatures in a home
• higher heating and cooling bills

When installing ductwork, you should make sure to take the size of your home or office into consideration. Your ductwork should match the size of your heater and/or air conditioner in order to be able to work properly. An expert from the Quality 1 Energy Systems team will match the duct system to your equipment so that it’s able to function properly. We’ll also fine-tune your equipment so that each room in your home or office is being properly ventilated.

Signs Your Air Ducts Need Cleaning

If you notice small pieces of dust or debris floating in the air every time you turn on your home’s heating ventilation and air conditioning, see pet hair in your vents or have dust coating the grills of your vents, it may be a sign that your home’s ductwork is in need of deep cleaning.

Dust gathers over time in vents, motors, and coils in your HVAC system. Additionally, dead skin and pet dander collects and forms an environment where bacteria, mold, dust mites, and allergens thrive. While air filters tend to keep these particles out of the air you breathe in, they collect in your HVAC system over time.

That’s why it’s so important to have an HVAC system expert from Quality 1 Energy Systems come take a look at your vents and ductwork, and provide our expert cleaning services if necessary.
