Last winter, I noticed that cooking odors were spreading throughout the entire home and lingering for hours and hours, but when we’d head to bed at evening, our study rooms would odor of whatever I’d prepared for breakfast. With the outside temperature down into the teens, there was no occasion of opening a window and airing out the house. All of us were running the gas furnace at maximum capacity. The presence of the cooking odors made myself and others more aware of the amount of dust floating around. I started getting concerned about the health and cleanliness of our indoor breathing air. I finally contacted a local Heating and Air Conditioning company and asked him to take a look at the heater. The specialist took care of the inner laborings of the gas furnace and found no concerns. He then inspected the ductwork and discovered an frightening amount of debris built-up in the pipes. He said that this accumulation of dust and dirt was absorbing odors and spreading them to every room in the home whenever the gas furnace operated, however because our breathing air passes through the ductwork numerous times per day, any toxins concealed within the system are a sizable concern, but mold spores and bacteria can easily become airborne and cause health risks. The specialist advised duct cleaning. I assumed that this would be an invasive and luxurious project. Instead, he brought in a unit that resembled an oversized vacuum cleaner, complete with a hose and brush linkment. The brush works to dislodge stubborn contaminants that then get sucked into the hose. The duct cleaning resulted in a significant improvement in the comfort and hygiene of the home. It also increased the efficiency and capacity of the gas furnace.
