Air Duct Cleaning for Office and Business
Air duct cleaning is not just for residential properties. Commercial spaces, too, need air duct cleaning. In the same way dirty HVAC systems and duct cleaning affects residential properties, so does it affect workers and customers operating within commercial spaces.
At Air Duct Cleaning Ventura, we offer commercial air duct cleaning services for all businesses, both large and small. Read on to learn more about this service.
What is commercial air duct cleaning?
Commercial air duct cleaning, as the name suggests, entails the cleaning and sanitization of heating, ventilation, and cooling systems around commercial properties. This service seeks to eliminate pent-up dust, debris, and particulate matter collected from outdoor and indoor air by the HVAC systems.
How commercial air duct cleaning is carried out
Just like in residential air duct cleaning, commercial air duct cleaning entails the use of industrial suction machines to suck the dirt from the air ducts.
The process begins with an inspection by our well-trained staff technicians. Here, your air duct systems are carefully inspected to determine if they need cleaning. This entails physically inspecting the inner sections of the ducts, inspecting the HVAC components, and testing the air quality inside the property and inside the air ducts.
If your property is found in need of air duct cleaning, our technicians will run you through the process and explain the steps to be carried out. These include attaching large suction pipes to your main HVAC ducts, sealing intake vents and suctioning off the dirt inside to an eternal collection tank. During the process, pressurized air may be sprayed into your duct network to loosen hardened particulate matter to ease the suction process.
After the suction process is complete, the system is inspected again to ensure that all dirt has been removed, to check that all seals have been closed, and to ensure that your air duct system has not been compromised in any way.
Importance of commercial air duct cleaning
Commercial HVAC systems collect tons of dirt
Commercial properties have HVAC systems that are larger and much more elaborate compared to those installed in residential properties. The bigger the commercial property is, the larger its HVAC duct infrastructure is. Also, commercial HVAC systems pass on much more air from outside. And this air brings with it dirt and particulate matter from outside. It therefore goes without saying that commercial properties collect more dirt in their ducts compared to residential properties. And this means that commercial spaces have indoor air that is at more risk of being polluted by dust, dirt, and all sorts of allergens. This is one of the reasons why commercial duct cleaning is so important. It abates and reverses this pollution of indoor thereby allowing your clients and staff to enjoy clean safe air throughout.
Commercial air duct cleaning prevents early breakdown of HVAC systems
Commercial air duct cleaning is also a great maintenance duty for all owners of commercial properties. If HVAC ducts are not cleaned, the heating and cooling systems, especially the filters and heat exchangers can get clogged with dirt over time. This increases the risk of commercial HVAC systems stalling or suffering downtimes. And such eventualities can be very costly because they will affect the attractiveness of the property to potential (and existing) tenants and customers. After all, commercial properties are expected to have fully-functioning HVAC systems.
In addition to that, commercial air duct cleaning helps to prolong the lifespan of the HVAC equipment by eliminating dirt-related repairs. This can save property owners costly repairs or even the need to replace entire HVAC systems.
Duct cleaning can save property owners from health-related lawsuits
Commercial air duct cleaning is also important because it can save property owners from liability lawsuits pertaining to health problems due to poor indoor air quality. Indoor air quality can affect people’s health, especially if exposed for long durations. People with asthma, allergies, and respiratory problems are especially at risk. And if such people were to suffer health problems due to poor indoor quality in one’s property, there is the risk of legal liability. By seeking commercial air duct cleaning services, property owners can significantly reduce the risk of this happening.
Cleaner HVAC systems consume less power
Dirty air ducts and HVAC systems endure resistance and interference when it comes to heat exchange around the cooling and heating coils. This results in the conditioning processes taking longer and consuming more power than is normally required. As a result, dirty HVAC systems consume more power and cost more to maintain annually. As such, commercial air duct cleaning is an investment that can save you from having to pay more in power bills each month.
