How Efficient Are Your Coils?

Well maintained coils can last up to 15 years! Keeping an air conditioning unit well maintained increases the life and efficiency of the heating and air conditioning unit. That’s why air conditioner coil cleaning should be near the top of every building’s maintenance list.

Leaks, noises, diminished airflow and damaged wiring are some of the signs of a poorly maintained home AC system.

As air moves over the air conditioner coils, contaminants such as dirt, dust, mold spores, moisture and pollen collect. When this happens, the air conditioning coils become a breeding ground for bacteria and mold, threatening indoor air quality. If air conditioner coil cleaning is not performed, buildup on the air conditioning coils also creates an insulating effect, preventing the coil from absorbing heat and reducing airflow, resulting in greater energy consumption.

Green World Pro Cleaner is the premier provider of duct cleaning. Our professional technicians perform thorough cleanings, eliminating contaminants, like dust, mold and bacteria. Duct cleaning also helps prevent excessive home dust and allergies by removing irritants from your ductwork.

According to NADCA, up to 40 pounds of dust is created annually, through everyday living alone! Your HVAC system recirculates air five to seven times a day, so dust in the home and other air pollutants are pulled into your air ducts, attaches to the walls and builds up over time. Cleaning your air ducts help maintain healthy indoor air quality in your home.

When the air conditioning coils become contaminated, the system has to work harder, using more energy to transfer heat. According to the US Department of Energy (DOE), the “HVAC system accounts for 40 to 60 percent of the energy used in US commercial and residential buildings.” Add in the fact that an air conditioning unit with dirty coils can use from 30 to 37 percent more energy than a unit with clean coils! The case is clear: ensuring your HVAC system is maintained and functioning properly will save you both energy and money.

Air duct cleaning is the process of eliminating dust, mold and other contaminants from your heating and air conditioning system ductwork.

According to the EPA, “Air duct cleaning generally refers to the cleaning of various heating and cooling system components of forced air systems, including the supply and return air ducts and registers, grilles and diffusers, heat exchangers heating and cooling coils, condensate drain pans (drip pans), fan motor and fan housing, and the air handling unit housing.”

Indoor air pollution has been identified as a top environmental health risk in the US and air duct cleaning has shown to greatly reduce indoor air contaminants, making your home a healthier place to live.

How to Clean Air Ducts (According to NADCA Standards)

Green World Pro Cleaner follows the rigorous standards set forth by the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) when performing air duct cleaning.

Our courteous and professionally trained air duct cleaning technicians use the following process:

Can I Clean Air Ducts Myself?

Properly cleaning your home air duct is trickier than it seems. First, you’ll need to acquire specially designed vacuums, brushes, fans and furnace filters. The NADCA guidelines and recommendations for specific tasks, like cleaning areas “contaminated with an accumulation of particulate” or the ones “determined to be at risk for fire hazard” will change drastically. Therefore, we do not recommend cleaning your air duct yourself, unless you have industry certifications.
