Your home is supposed to be a place of comfort, but if you’re constantly dealing with allergies, headaches, or unexplained fatigue, your indoor air quality (IAQ) might be the problem. Most people think about pollution as an outdoor issue, but according to the EPA, indoor air can be 2–5 times more polluted than outdoor air — especially when your ducts are dirty or leaky.
Common Symptoms of Poor Indoor Air Quality
When your HVAC system circulates air through dusty, contaminated ducts, you may notice:
- Allergy flare-ups – sneezing, coughing, itchy eyes, or sinus congestion
- Frequent headaches – caused by airborne pollutants and stale air
- Chronic fatigue or poor sleep – due to breathing irritants night after night
- Dry throat or irritated skin – linked to particles and imbalanced humidity
- Lingering odors – stale, musty smells that never seem to go away
These are your body’s warning signs that the air inside your home isn’t as clean as it should be.
How Do Your Ducts Affect IAQ?
Over time, your ducts collect dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and other pollutants. If there are leaks, they can also pull in dirty air from attics, crawl spaces, or basements. Every time your system runs, these contaminants are blown into every room — where you and your family breathe them in.
How Duct Cleaning Can Help
Professional air duct cleaning:
- Removes dust, allergens, and mold spores at the source
- Restores proper airflow so your HVAC system works efficiently
- Improves indoor air quality almost immediately
For many homeowners, clean ducts mean fewer allergy symptoms, fewer headaches, and a noticeable improvement in how the home feels and smells.
Why Add Aeroseal Sealing?
Even if your ducts are spotless, leaks can allow dirty air to sneak back in. Aeroseal duct sealing:
- Closes hidden cracks and gaps from the inside out
- Keeps pollutants and allergens from entering your system
- Ensures clean, conditioned air actually reaches your living spaces
Cleaning + sealing is the most effective way to protect your home’s air long-term.
