Duct Cleaning in Knoxville

Keep Your Knoxville Home Healthy with Air Duct Cleaning

Your heating and cooling system is similar to an essential organ in your body—your lungs. It’s like a breathing device for your home, drawing air in and out.

But your home’s lungs may be breathing in dirty air, according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. In some instances, your Knoxville home’s indoor air quality could be lower than outdoors.

Your HVAC system can accumulate contaminants such as dust. And these particles can be circulated around your home as many as five to seven times a day. This can cause health issues, especially if one of your family members has allergies or asthma.

Revitalize your ducts with HVAC cleaning services from R & M Climate Control Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning. You’ll breathe easier knowing all our excellent cleaning solutions are upheld by a one-year, 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.*

Signs You Need to Schedule Duct Cleaning Service
How do you know when it’s time for an air duct cleaning? The National Air Duct Cleaners Association suggests doing it every three to five years.

The organization has a simple rule of thumb—if your vent system seems dirty, it probably is.

Although much of the ductwork in your home is hidden, you can examine the supply and return vents. Are they grimy? Take off a vent cover and inspect the ductwork. Is the metal covered in dust?

Here are a few other clues you’re overdue for an extensive cleaning:

Mold has been spotted in your furnace, air conditioner, heat pump or air handler.

Vents spew dust when your heat or air conditioning switches on.

Dust, dirt or pet hair is caught in vents.

Your home is very dusty despite regular cleaning.

Your home was recently built, underwent an in-depth renovation or had water damage.

Energy expenses are increasing despite thermostat settings being the same.
