Flexible Air Duct Cleaning: Call an HVAC Professional
If you are researching flexible air duct cleaning for your home, congratulations, this means you are already a responsible homeowner. Once you have gathered all the necessary information on the topic, your next step should be to call an HVAC professional. Calling an HVAC professional is necessary, especially, if you have the flexible air ducts, which most houses have now a days. This cleaning process is a delicate operation and if done incorrectly, you can put yourself and others at risk of inhaling contaminated air.
These air ducts are made of a fiberglass and polymer lining. The material will tear easily if not handled correctly. Often times “Do-it-Yourselfers” will not have the proper tools or technique when working. For instance, ducts reach over ten-feet deep within a wall. This can be a challenge if not trained correctly. At the same time, disreputable companies or novice technicians will simply use a standard method–vacuuming the dirt is not sufficiently completing the job.

Flexible Air Duct Cleaning — Why Use Flexible in the First Place?
Flex ducts are popular due to their price and how easy they are to work with. During the construction of a home, they are much easier to install. In cases of renovations, it is easier to retrofit within an existing structure and air system. This presents unique challenges to the air cleaning process. Ducts can reach certain stress points when wrapped around corners at certain angles. These can potentially become damaged at multiple points of tension. Additionally, due to an event known as “air abrasion” the Mylar lining in the duct can wear down. This can eventually release particles into the home’s breathable air. This, of course, is something that is harmful to our lungs and easily preventable if proper precautions are taken.
