Prevent Duct Contamination

HiCaliber recommends that you have the ducts in your home cleaned annually and commit to a good preventative maintenance program which is essential to minimize duct contamination. Following are some suggestions for preventative maintenance.  Use the highest efficiency air filter recommended by the manufacturer of your heating and cooling system.  Change filters regularly.  Be sure you do not have any missing filters. Have your heating and cooling system maintained or checked to clean cooling coils and drain pans. During construction or renovation work that produces dust in your home, seal off supply and return registers and do not operate the heating and cooling system until after cleaning up the dust.  Remove dust and vacuum your home regularly. Vacuuming can increase the amount of dust in the air during and after vacuuming as well as in your ducts).  If your heating system includes in-duct humidification equipment, be sure to operate and maintain the humidifier strictly as recommended by the manufacturer.  If you determine you may need your ducts cleaned, visit this link http://www.hicaliber.biz/duct-cleaning for a description of what HiCaliber can do for your ducts or call us at 435-634-9338.
