Reduce Dust and Allergens with Air Sealing and Duct Cleaning

Have you ever had one of those weeks where you feel like you are dusting every day?  You may be wondering, "where did all of that dust come from?"

What you don't know is that there may be holes and gaps all over your home where air, and as a result, dust and dirt, enter into your home.  If there are holes in your heating or cooling ducts, the dust from your home will also enter into the ducts and blow back into the conditioned space of your home.  The most common places where you can find these holes are:

  • Around pipes and Wires
  • Around Chimney
  • Duct Chases
  • Between framing and drywall at the top of walls
  • Can lights
  • Pull down stairs and scuttle holes
  • Rim joists and sill plates
  • Sump pump holes
  • Basement windows
  • Windows and doors
  • Under sinks- plumbing penetrations
  • Bath fans
  • Whole house fans
  • And many, many other places!
