Cleaning the evaporator and condenser coils of a commercial air conditioning (AC) system can positively affect cooling efficiency in several ways: Improved heat transfer: Over time, dust, dirt, and other debris can accumulate on the evaporator and condenser coils, forming a layer that inhibits heat transfer. When the coils are cleaned, this buildup is removed, allowing for better heat transfer between the refrigerant and the surrounding air. This improved heat transfer enables the AC system to cool the air more effectively. Increased airflow: Dirty coils can restrict airflow through the AC sy ..read more

Mold growth on sheetrock (drywall) ceilings in garages or homes can occur due to various factors: Moisture: Moisture is the primary factor contributing to mold growth. Leaks from plumbing, roofs, or windows can lead to water seepage into the Sheetrock, providing an ideal environment for mold to thrive. Poor ventilation: Inadequate ventilation can trap moisture indoors, leading to condensation on surfaces such as ceilings. Areas with poor air circulation, like garages or rooms with closed windows, are more prone to mold growth. Humidity: High humidity levels can promote mold growth. Areas with ..read more

The Importance of Air Duct Sealing Duct sealing is a process used to seal leaks and gaps in the ductwork of your HVAC system. It is an important aspect of HVAC maintenance and energy efficiency. Here’s an overview: Importance of Duct Sealing: Energy Efficiency: Leaky ducts can result in significant energy loss as conditioned or heated air escapes before reaching its intended destination. Sealing ducts can help to ensure that heated or cooled air remains within the duct system, reducing energy waste. Improved Comfort: Properly sealed ducts ensure that rooms receive the full benefit of condit ..read more

We often hear this question and it is an easy fix! Most believe that condensation can only happen in the summer when cold air is being used to cool your home through your HVAC system, but that’s not the case. Sweating/condensation can also happen in the winter. As long as hot air is meeting cold air, condensation can occur. The most common set up for this to happen is when you have baseboard heat, a radiator or a heating source that does not utilize the AC system. These AC systems are typically found in your attic and are not ran during the winter. So what happens next? The heat from your ..read more

Did you know your HVAC system is a breeding ground for mold and bacteria?  Your HVAC system has all three components needed to grow mold: 1. A food source (dirt)  2. Moisture (from your AC) 3. Porous surfaces. However, this same HVAC system is also the lungs of your home and circulates the air you breathe throughout the day. Therefore, maintaining your home’s HVAC and duct work is extremely important to you and your family. When you have leaks within your ducts, those already prevalent issues of mold and bacteria growth are now exacerbated and will happen more quickly. &n ..read more

Beyond fire prevention, regular vent cleaning also enhances the efficiency of your dryer, saving energy and ensuring optimal performance. Let’s review the reasons why cleaning a dryer vent is crucial and why th ..read more

A power vacuum truck has 16,000 cfms of vacuum power, which is equivalent to a 300-mph wind. Why is this important?  1. Less chance of dust/debris becoming airborne in your home during the duct cleaning process. 2. All dust/debris within your ductwork is directly pushed to your main trunkline then directly to the power vacuum truck outside. 3. There is no vacuum being carried/wheeled into your home to clean the duct work as a result protecting your home’s floors, walls, furniture, etc. and decreasing the chance of recontamination. 4. The power vacuum truck along with our dislodging&n ..read more
