Hello. My name is Max. My wife and I have five children who all live at with us in our large two-story house. My wife and two of our kids suffer from severe allergies which means keeping our home as dust-free as possible. I have learned that it’s crucial to keep our heating and air conditioning units properly maintained at all times. We have a fantastic HVAC company that comes out two times a year to perform routine maintenance on our system. They have taught me what I can do on a monthly basis in order to not only help with my family’s health but also keep our system running efficiently. I would like to share some of the tips I’ve been given. I hope you find this to be useful!

There are a few functions that the average homeowner can perform to keep their duct system clean, but the bulk of the activities should be performed by HVAC contractors or professional duct-cleaning services. There are too many hazards that an amateur with a shop vac and a long hose may encounter.
