Air Duct Cleaning
The Air That You Breathe
Indoor air quality has become a major issue in today's health awareness. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) the air inside U.S. homes may be two to five times more unsafe than outdoor air, and in some cases as much as 100 times more outdoor pollution.
Most of the dust at your residence contains mold, mildew, dust mites, pollen and animal dander. These dangerous pollutants travel through the air, and can antagonize breathing problems like allergies and asthma.
Air conditioning and ventilation systems in homes and businesses are known breeding areas for contaminants like molds, fungus, and bacteria.
Surface cleaning alone is useless on dirty, clogged air ducts. Dust, bacteria, and other debris continue to buildup-ready to extract back into your home or office.
Call Chicago Carpet Cleaning .com today to improve your indoor air quality for residential or commercial air duct cleaning. Ease your mind and enjoy all your health benefits of breathing clean, contaminated-free air.

Four Steps to Cleaner Indoor Air
Step One: Keep your home as clean as possible-keeping ahead of dust and dust mites that can dramatically improve the air you breathe. Dusting window treatments, around window and door trims and out or reach areas can be very helpful. Use a vacuum cleaner that utilizes a HEPA type filter so that as you are cleaning you're not just ejecting the dust back into the air. Also think about a bag-free vacuum cleaner to prevent the cloud of dust that forms when you change a bag.
Step Two: If you have a forced air heating system have the air ducts cleaned and sealed internally. Have your air ducts cleaned every 3-5 years by a qualified professional duct cleaning service.
Step Three: Upgrade the air filters on your furnace. For most of us the furnace filter is a spun glass filter that cost less than a dollar. While this filter protects the blower motor, it will do almost nothing when it comes to improving you indoor air quality. Upgrade to a pleated filter that captures smaller particles-some so small that your naked eye cannot see them. There are many brands available, American Filter and 3M, to name a couple. The key is to change them regularly.
Step four: Consider installing an indoor air purifier. Do your homework before buying, investigating the merits of different models for your particular needs. You might find it helpful to browse the AHAM Air Cleaner council (aham.org) site, which is part of the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers.
Many manufacturers will offer a trial run with air purifier units for up to 30 days. By that time you will know if you are air quality is better and if the unit is worth the investment.
