The inside of the air vents in your home are hard to see. Most home owners have never opened a floor register to look inside (out of fear I’m sure). When and if you ever do look inside the register, this is the moment when most people realize there is a good reason to schedule an air duct cleaning. Air duct and furnace cleaning is a must after any type of disaster in the home whether it’s fire damage or water damage. The vent cleaning is nice, but what about any small left over bacteria, fungus, or even mold that may remain in the duct work after a professional air duct cleaning service is complete? Most air duct cleaning companies offer a sanitizing product and the product itself is important but I would challenge that the technicians applying this fogged in sanitizer are equally as important. In the Portland and Vancouver areas we are conscious of the environment, Sporicidin is an EPA registered product for air duct cleaning and it is recommended over bleach as a cleaning agent to combat bacteria, mold, and fungus. Sporicidin offers 6 months of bacteriostatic residual protection of treated surfaces. This means not even the flu virus stands a chance in a sanitized air duct. We keep our kitchens clean because that is where we make our food and we sanitize all surfaces, what about all the air we breathe in our homes? We think it should be the best!
