Cleaning the air ducts may save you money by increasing the efficiency of your heating and air conditioning system. A cleaner system is more energy efficient and does not have to work as hard to keep your home at a comfortable temperature.
Research done by the EPA shows that a buildup of even .042 inches of dirt can result in a decrease of furnace efficiency up to 21%. The dust that stays in your system will accumulate on the fan blades of the blower motor, the coil and the inside of your ductwork, which can reduce air flow up to 40%. This translates into higher energy costs for you.
Cleaning the air ducts in your home can lead to cost savings in several ways. First, clean air ducts allow your HVAC system to operate more efficiently. When ducts are clogged with dust and debris, it forces the system to work harder to maintain the desired temperature, resulting in increased energy consumption and higher utility bills. Additionally, a well-maintained HVAC system is less prone to breakdowns and costly repairs, extending its lifespan and reducing the need for frequent replacements. Improved airflow also means that your heating and cooling equipment can reach the desired temperature more quickly, reducing the time they need to run. Overall, investing in air duct cleaning not only enhances indoor air quality and comfort and possibly put money back in your pocket through energy savings and reduced maintenance expenses.
