If you live in the Philadelphia area (or anywhere else for that matter) you are most likely in the “spring cleaning mode”, or you will be soon. As the temps start getting back to normal and the furnace gets a bit of a reprieve, most homeowners start thinking about cleaning up and getting some fresh air back into the house.

Spring Cleaning Includes Ductwork too!

In addition to cleaning the windows, carpets and the yard, don’t forget about your home’s heating and cooling system. As one of the most important…and expensive… appliances in your home, the air ducts are begging to be cleaned! If you think about it, the furnace has been forcing dirty, stale air through the cold air return, past the furnace filter and back into your home all winter long. And for $1.50 at the local home center, don’t expect that furnace filter to stop much. Your furnace is designed to be cleaned frequently (yearly according to manufacturer recommendations), and not to be dependent soley upon a furnace filter.

Want Fresh Air – Clean the Air Ducts

If it’s fresh air you want, consider duct cleaning as one of the top items on your list. Most companies offer a $99 Philly Duct Cleaning Special and as long as they are a reputable firm, it’s well worth the money. Chances are, you will save that back in the first few months running your a/c since your furnace won’t need to work so hard to blow cool air through the air ducts.
