In this blog, we are going to discuss some wrong information spread about HVAC cleaning.

Myth #1 —You should think about HVAC cleaning when you notice dirt in the ducts.

Truth

You should not wait until the dust and debris become visible and clean your HVAC system at least once a year because over time, dust, debris, and pollens create their thick layers that block the airflow, mix with the air, create a dirty environment in the home, and spread allergies.

Myth #2 — You should think about HVAC cleaning only if you are using air conditioners

Truth

The air-conditioners with dirty air-ducts spread dust and debris in the home. Therefore, their ducts need to be cleaned timely, but other HVAC systems as well collect airborne pollutants and need timely cleaning; otherwise, they can pollute the inside air in your home.

Myth #3 — 
You can stop bacteria growth in your HVAC systems by using a dehumidifier.

Truth

The best way to prevent bacteria growth is to clean your HVAC systems timely. Other ways are not much successful.

Myth #4 —HVAC systems need chemical based cleaning every time.
