Spring and summer in Eastern Washington and North Idaho are glorious, especially after our long, dark winters. As soon as you hear those robins start to chirp and see the first buds burst forth, you can’t wait to open the windows and let in that fresh air. 

However, the staff at Dryer Ducks knows that not everyone is as excited about spring and summer as we are. Yes, we’re talking about allergy sufferers. That pollen seems to get everywhere. Family members track it into the house on their shoes and clothing, and even Fido carries it in on his fur and paws. Plus, as a bonus, he leaves loads of hair around the house during shedding season. 

Better Air for Greater Comfort and Better Health

It’s one thing to know you’ll have to deal with itchy, watery eyes, sneezing, and rashy skin when you go outdoors, but your home should be a place of comfort. So, how can you minimize allergy problems once you get in the house? Easy: air duct cleaning from Dryer Ducks. 

Even if you are diligent about replacing your HVAC system filter often, that does not mean you are getting rid of all the allergens that may be lurking in your system. But getting your air ducts cleaned periodically, especially after a long winter of your heater running every day, can improve the quality of your indoor air, letting you breathe easy. Here are some benefits to getting your air ducts cleaned.

1. Removes Hidden Allergens: Air duct cleaning removes built-up dust, pollen, pet hair, and other microscopic particles trapped inside your duct system. Once these are eliminated, the air circulating through your home becomes significantly cleaner.
2. Improves Air Circulation: Cleaner ducts mean better airflow throughout your system, helping your HVAC system operate efficiently while filtering out airborne particles more effectively. This leads to better ventilation and improved indoor air quality.
3. Supports Overall Health: Cleaner air isn’t just about fewer sneezes now; it’s about long-term health. Reducing allergen exposure can lead to better sleep, fewer headaches, less fatigue, and improved respiratory health, and all those provide cumulative benefits, making you healthier over time.

When Should Allergy Sufferers Clean Their Air Ducts?

If you or your loved ones deal with seasonal allergies, consider having your air ducts cleaned in these situations:

• A minimum of every 3–5 years as a basic preventative measure
• After any home renovations, which can stir up dust, create dust particles from drywall work, and chemicals from paints, solvents, and other substances
• At least annually if you have pets that shed dander and hair
• Anytime you notice excessive dust, musty smells, or visible mildew
• At the beginning of every allergy season, for a fresh start

Why Professional Cleaning Is Essential

There’s no doubt that changing air filters regularly (every two months or so) is helpful. However, that maintenance task is not enough to address the allergens lodged deep in your ductwork. DIY cleaning methods typically fall short of fully removing dust and biological contaminants, which can deposit fine particles on the surfaces throughout your ductwork. Those particles can circulate through your house when the AC or heater is on.

Professional air duct cleaning services from Dryer Ducks use specialized tools and sanitizing agents to clean, disinfect, and restore your ducts to like-new condition. Our technicians are trained to safely and thoroughly eliminate contaminants without releasing more allergens into your living space.
