Dryer Vent & Air Duct Cleaning in Austin, TX & Surrounding Areas

You usually spend most of your time indoors, either at your home or at work. Do you know what you’re breathing?

Depending on how often you clean your ventilation and air duct systems, you’re inhaling a variety of dirt, dust mites, animal dander, pollen, bacteria, mold, and more. By maintaining your filters and getting professional air duct and vent cleaning, you can breathe easy knowing that your air is clean.

Professional Air Duct Cleaning

The air you breathe inside has to filter through your duct system, and, if your ducts aren’t thoroughly clean, neither is your air. Every time you turn on your heating and cooling systems, they circulate dust, dust mites, animal dander, pollen, and bacteria throughout the air inside. Daniel’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning offers both air quality testing and air duct cleaning to determine what’s in your air and how best to clean it.

Professional air quality testing, duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, and air filtration can help:

  • Remove pollen and allergens
  • Prevent mold and mildew growth
  • Remove odors from cooking, pets, and smoking

Dryer Vent Cleaning

Your dryer vents do much more than simply funneling in warm air to dry your clothes.

While detergents and fabric softeners clean your clothes, they also contain chemicals that aren’t safe to breathe. Your machine’s dryer vents help release chemical vapors from the dryer and out of your home. However, when a vent is clogged or too blocked, it can’t properly dispose of the contaminated air and may release it back into your home.

Additionally, these clogs are made out of the lint, dust, and fabric from your laundry — all very dry materials. Paired with the heat of your dryer, this debris can pose a serious fire hazard.

Dryer vent cleaning is the only way to ensure that your clothes, air, and dryer stay clean and keep allergens and dust out of your air. Plus, clean dryer vents allow your dryer to run more efficiently, which can save electricity in the long run and dry out your clothes faster.

How Duct Cleaning Works

Duct cleaning, to put it as simply as possible, is basically just vacuuming your duct and vent system.

Of course, it’s no ordinary vacuum. Our Rotobrush Brushbeast is the best air duct cleaner on the market, with four different vacuum motors, HEPA-filtered suction, and double-lined hoses. All this power helps us to clean up even the heaviest build-up, leaving your vents — and air — cleaner than ever.

Despite being the best tool available, the Brushbeast is only as effective as its handler. That’s why our duct cleaning technicians have plenty of training and years of experience in cleaning out a variety of air ducts in all shapes and sizes. If you’re curious about the process, feel free to ask any questions you may have.

We aim to not only solve your plumbing and duct problems but also to help educate our clients to the best of our ability.

When Is It Time to Have Your Air Ducts Cleaned?

Your ducts should be cleaned if:

  • You’ve noticed an unpleasant smell in your home.
  • Your registers are dirty.
  • You/your family has allergies and/or asthma.
  • You have young children or elderly family living with you.
  • You have pets.
  • You have smokers in the house.

What Is in Your Home’s Air That Your Family Is Breathing? 

Air ducts have a very important function. They help to circulate both heated and cooled air throughout your home. Every time your air conditioner or heater runs, air is cycling through your ducts to allow for comfort within your home.

The Environmental Protection Agency has ranked poor indoor air pollution among the top five risks for public health multiple years in a row. Without even knowing, your air duct system could be contaminated with particulates that are harmful for you and your family to breathe. Each time your heating and cooling system turns on, it can circulate dust, dust mites, animal dander, pollen, and bacteria throughout the air inside your home.

Below are some facts about indoor air quality:

  • The EPA has ranked indoor air quality as one of the top five environmental risks to public health.
  • More than 50 million Americans suffer from allergies, with many cases due to the fungi and bacteria in air duct systems.
  • Indoor air is two to five times worse than outdoor air.

Air duct cleaning removes dust and contaminants within your duct work. This includes the supply and return ducts, registers, and diffusers in each room. This not only improves air quality but can decrease the strain put on your AC fan motor as well.

The benefits of having your ducts professionally cleaned include:

  • Creating a cleaner living environment: As the air circulates throughout your home, the particulates from your ducts and vents land on your furniture, bedding, flooring, kitchen counters — just about everywhere. Having your air ducts cleaned reduces the amount of interior cleaning.
  • Reducing allergens and irritants: Air ducts frequently contain contaminants and micro-organisms along with the dust and pollutants. These can include pet dander, bacteria, mildew, mold spores, and pollen. People who suffer from allergies, asthma, and other respiratory problems are particularly sensitive to these airborne particles.
  • Helping everyone to breathe easier: Even if you don’t suffer from chronic allergies or respiratory problems, dust and pollutants entering your lungs can cause sneezing, as well as bronchial and sinus congestion. Air duct cleaning creates a comfortable environment that promotes well-being.
  • Removing unpleasant smells and odors: Pet odors, dander, tobacco, and food preparations all can contribute to the stale smells in the air ducts. These smells are circulated throughout the home when air runs through those ducts and vents. A detailed cleaning removes trapped odor particles.
  • Improving air flow efficiency: Ductwork and/or registers that have a heavy build-up can restrict air flow from the heater and air conditioner. This decreases efficiency in those units and thus reduces their longevity, as well as increases energy costs.
