Did you know that 2/3 of fire-caused deaths occur in homes without functioning alarms? That means at least 2,000 lives could be saved each year if smoke alarms are properly located and tested. All smoke alarms have a test button that will sound and let you know they’re still functioning. It only takes a second every month and it could save your family’s life. This is just one of the many things you can do in your home to fire-proof your life. The Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI) has a new interactive house tour that shows the fire risks in an average home and how to prevent them.
One of the most combustible house-hold appliances is the common clothes dryer. There are roughly 15,500 dryer fires each year in America with the leading cause being failure to clean the dryer vent. Dryer vents should be cleaned at a minimum ANNUALLY. Regularly have your dryer vent cleaned to decrease drying times, energy use and, most importantly, decrease the risk of a house fire. Click here to learn more about dryer vent safety and to see about getting yours cleaned.
When you hear the words air pollution the first thing that usually comes to mind is some giant corporation continuously belching black clouds into the sky. Or maybe it’s that jacked up diesel truck next to you at the stop light that burns twice as much fuel as it needs when it accelerates and leaves you in a cloud of smoke. Whatever the image is that pops into your head it is probably not a picture of your furnace and duct system cycling dust, pet hair, dead skin cells, pollen, bacteria, and fungi throughout your house. But recent studies have shown that most times the level of pollution is often 10 times higher indoors than it is outdoors. Since a majority of your time is spent indoors shouldn’t cleaning up the air you breathe be a priority?
You could have pounds of dust, animal hair and debris hidden away in your ceiling, underneath your floor, and inside your walls. 80% of the dust in your home is made up of dead skin cells and dander. This means that if you moved in to an existing “new” home you are actually breathing the last people who lived there. Sounds pretty appetizing right? All of those contaminants constantly cycle through your homes HVAC system. Combine that with the moist environment that encompasses your ventilation system and soon bacteria, mold, and fungi begins to grow. This kind of buildup can cause your system to not run as efficiently costing you more money per year on your heating and cooling bill. In a report published by the U.S. EPA they ranked indoor air pollution as the highest risk to our health among all environmental problems.

Even if you pride yourself on being squeaky clean, the tiny dust particles released when you vacuum carpets or polish furniture often get recirculated through your house, all thanks to your air-conditioning system. And then you breathe all that dust back in.
But there are a few things you can do to help the dust settle somewhere besides your lungs. Mike White, a board member of the nonprofit National Air Duct Cleaners Association, or NADCA, offers some advice about improving the air you breathe in your home.
“Air ducts get dirty over time and when you start seeing dust and dirt around the grilles or on your furniture, that is a sign that dust and dirt are being moved around with the ventilation system,” said White, who has an Air System Cleaning Specialist certification, or ASCS. “You want to get the ducts cleaned to improve the air quality within the living space of the home or business.”
The dust flying around the ventilation system also includes chemicals you use in the home, including things like hair spray or the cleaner you spritz on the countertop.
“The dust basically absorbs that, so when you’re breathing, all of that is being absorbed into your upper respiratory system and can aggravate breathing problems like asthma and allergies,” White said.
Dander from pets also can contribute to air contamination. “It depends on how good your filter is on your air conditioning system, and if your return air duct is big enough for the type of filter you are using,” he said. “If the return is too small for your unit, it can build up pressure in the system, and it won’t operate as efficiently. That’s why you want to change your filters on a regular basis, too, because it traps a lot of that dust that is being circulated.”
Have your air circulation system inspected once a year to make sure your coils, return air and ductwork are clean, White said. The period of time between cleanings depends on what goes on in your living space. “If you get in there and you find one area is dirty, you may want to check the whole system, to make sure other areas are not contaminated with dust, dirt or mold,” he said.
In hot, humid climates, it’s especially important to keep dust out of the system because dust and dirt are a food source for mold. Keeping it clean reduces the likelihood of having mold in your air supply. “If you have asthma or allergies, a lot of times dust does affect that,” White said. “But when you start dealing with mold, that will absolutely give you upper respiratory problems.”
To clean the ducts, grilles are removed, the inside of the ductwork is brushed, and a vacuum is used to capture the dust, which avoids recontaminating the air. A provider with ASCS certification following NADCA guidelines can do this properly, White said. “You know they have been trained to do the job, and do it correctly,” he said.
After cleaning, some providers will use sealants to coat and resurface any dilapidated insulation. There are currently no Environmental Protection Agency-registered sanitizers on the market for ductwork. However, you can disinfect components like coils or the blower.
Besides cleaner air, you also can see reduced utility bills with proper duct maintenance, White said. “When you clean the blower, the coils and the duct system, you can see up to a 10 percent savings,” he said.
If you have remodeled, changed carpets or done any construction work, it’s a good time to get the duct system cleaned, because improvement projects stir up a lot of dust.
“When you hire someone, make sure to check them out and ensure that they have the certifications to clean the system like it should be,” White said.
