Alright, after a bunch of serious posts how about a little humour?  Let’s begin…

For most people duct cleaning has probably the same urgency as cleaning the gutters.  But this is one project that’s better done early.

Why you say?  I thought you’d never ask.  Really.  Nobody gives a hoot about duct cleaning….but since you’ve read this far, here are the top 5 reasons why you need your ducts cleaned:

5. You’ll be more comfortable. If your ducts are clogged air is delivered at a much slower rate. And some of the ducts out there are super clogged – like those pictures of a cross section of imminent heart attack patients arteries.  In most homes, the bedrooms are on the top floor, and can be a lot hotter than the main floor, where the thermostat is usually located.  If you want a quick temperature change, you need clean ducts.

4. You’ll sleep better. All that junk in your ducts is constantly being blown down your throat…like your house is giving you a giant Dutch oven all night, every night.  Now, you might not feel bad enough to do anything about it, and maybe that’s normal, but do you understand what it could feel like? It’s like waking up on the forest floor on a warm summer morning after having lain with nymphs all night long.

3. You’re under attack. Do you know what lives in there? Dust mites (yeah that’s right, no matter what you’ve heard they’re in there) and mould, that’s what.  The mites are one of the leading causes of allergies, and mould is a killer.  Seriously…just search Google for “black mould”.  So stop getting lung raped every time you take a breath.

2. You’ll save money. Remember those clogged ducts from point 5? Well there are a few other side effects too. Slower air flow means the system is on longer, and hence more energy is used.  Also, the harder the system has to work, the more prone it will be to break down.  So in a sense, it’s kind of like insurance.

1. You’ll stay healthy. You want to see your grand kids grow up right? Air is the thing we consume most, and as such has an enormous impact on our health.  By ensuring you supply is as clean as can be not only will you see them grow up, you’ll be able backhand their punk boyfriends when they get out of line.
