Industrial Air Duct Cleaning FAQs (Pt. 1)

When is it Time to Hire an Air Duct Cleaning Company?

A critical component of any industrial facility’s hygiene is its HVAC system – including the air ducts, ventilation and heating and cooling components. That endless maze of air ducts, air handlers, coils, filters, fan, drip pans, and ventilators many be overhead and out of sight – but they shouldn’t be out of mind.

These components can act as a breeding ground and distribution pipeline for airborne contaminants. And these airborne impurities can create respiratory problems, spread illness, contaminate your products, and increase your energy costs.

If an industrial facility’s HVAC system is not properly installed or maintained, dust, dirt, exhaust, gases, cobwebs and other debris particles can accumulate within its winding nooks and crannies. If moisture gets into the system, mold can also grow within the air ducts – and toxic mold spores can be released from the system and spread throughout the entire industrial facility.

When to Clean Your Air Ducts

As with any industrial maintenance expense, it is important to balance e the cost of air duct and HVAC cleaning, with the actual necessity and benefit to have these services done. Many overly-aggressive air duct cleaning companies even exaggerate the recommended frequency for air duct cleaning. And, in fact, both the EPA and industrial cleaning studies, are inconclusive on the exact regularity with which air ducts should be cleaned.

So how DO you know when it’s time to clean your air ducts?

The first step is always a thorough and honest inspection from a reputable and experienced air duct cleaning company.

A reliable air duct cleaning company will have the specialized equipment to perform an exhaustive HVAC inspection with state-of-the-art technology. A professional air duct cleaning company can identify dirt buildup, blockages and the presence of mold or other contaminants – as well as identify any failing or damaged components or surfaces – in areas that the naked eye cannot see.

An Industrial Facility Should Inspect Air Ducts When:

There is any visible mold growth on or in the air ducts, or on any other HVAC components
There is any evidence of rodents, insects or other vermin, such as droppings, spider webs, etc.
If particles or dust is ever observed being released from the registers
If air ducts or HVAC components appear damaged or inoperable
When you notice grime or buildup anywhere on the inside or outside of the air ducts
If there is a rash of unexplained employee respiratory illnesses, allergic reactions, or breathing/eye complaints
If you notice that your products or inventory are accumulating dust or debris
If there is an unexplained most, moldy, mildew-y or other persistent, unpleasant smell in the air
If it has been 5 years or more since your air ducts were inspected, even if there are no “symptoms”
