Have you recently bought a new home? You are probably very excited to move in. However, before you do you may want to consider having the air ducts and dryer vent cleaned. There are many reasons why you may want to have these systems cleaned before moving in. DNA Air Duct would like to share why you may want to have your new home’s air ducts and dryer vents cleaned.
You Don’t Know when Air Ducts & Dryer Vents Were Last Cleaned
There are many reasons why you would want to have the dryer vents and air ducts cleaned. However, there is one major consideration that affects both the dryer vent and air duct systems, which is; “when was the last time they were cleaned?” When preparing to sell a home the previous homeowner was mostly concerned with how good the house looks on the inside and outside. They probably focused on repair of minor problems, repainting, and cleaning the home. However what isn’t seen is often forgotten. No one ever thinks about having their air ducts or dryer system cleaned. This means this is one aspect of the home that is neglected. With that in mind, let’s discuss the air duct and dryer vent system.
Why Should You Clean Your Dryer Vent?
When moving into a new home you will want to have a clean and fresh dryer vent system. Why? Dryer vents can become clogged with lint over time. Time can also restrict air flow which interferes with the dryer’s ability to completely dry a load of laundry. When the dryer vents are dirty or clogged with lint, your dryer will struggle to dry your laundry in a single cycle. You may need to run multiple cycles to finish a single load of laundry. This will cause an ever growing power bill. Another major reason why you will want to have the dryer vents clean is to ensure the home is safe. A number of residential fires start because of a lint filled dryer vent. To know your new home is completely safe, have the dry vents cleaned.
Why is Cleaning Air Ducts Important?
Why have the air ducts cleaned? There are many benefits of having your air ducts cleaned. One is clean and quality air. When the air ducts are full of dust and other contaminants, they will enter the home each time the HVAC system runs a cycle. To have less dust inside the home and cleaner air, the air ducts should be cleaned. Air duct systems can have more than dust inside. Air ducts have been known to hide a number of contaminants and pollutants. Inside an air duct system mold can be found living inside them. Pests, including rodents have used air duct systems as pathways, leaving behind their waste, hair and dander. Other pests, including dust mites, cockroaches, and spiders have all been found inside the air duct system. To ensure your home is free of pests and harmful contaminants, you may want to have the air ducts cleaned before moving in.
