  • Health

    Did you know that buildup of dust, lint, dirt, and other debris in your ducts and dryer vents can cause a serious fire hazard?


    Air duct systems are also home to many substances that can aggravate allergies. Your ductwork is a perfect breeding ground for germs and bacteria.


    Health experts now believe that approximately one in six people who suffer from allergies are affected directly by fungi and bacteria in their air duct system. Inadequate filtration and poor fresh air exchange found in many businesses and homes tend to continually recirculate allergens and concentrate them so that the indoor air becomes eight to ten times more likely to cause respiratory illnesses than outside air.


    Proper cleaning of ductwork will substantially reduce the amount of allergens, dirt, and dust circulated throughout your home or office. That is why it is essential to conduct mold removal in your home in Charlotte to avoid allergen buildup.

  • Safety/Fire Hazard

    Did you know that buildup of dust, lint, dirt, and other debris in your ducts and dryer vents can cause a serious fire hazard?


    • Air Ducts - The buildup of dust, dirt, and other debris in your ducts can get into the blower motor of your system, which creates a dangerous fire hazard. Keeping your duct system clean will help mitigate fire risks in your household. Conducting routine HVAC duct cleaning in Charlotte, NC, will help prevent the buildup of potential hazards.
    • Dryer Vents - Over time, lint builds up inside the dryer vent, which can clog the vent, preventing heat from escaping the dryer system. Clogged dryer vents present a serious fire hazard, in addition to affecting the efficiency of your dryer. Proper cleaning of your dryer vent can help you protect your home from vent fire hazards.
    • Fireplaces/Chimneys - Not having your fireplace and chimney cleaned and inspected properly can also lead to serious fire hazards. Soot buildup can be ignited inside your chimney, possibly causing a house fire. Chimney inspections can identify cracked flue liners. Weathering can cause flue liners to crack, and these cracks can allow carbon monoxide into the house. Sparks from the fireplace can then ignite this carbon monoxide, also causing a house fire.
