Most homes built today have a whole house comfort system, otherwise known as an HVAC system. This system has ductwork installed throughout the home and the HVAC system provides cool air in the summer and warm air in the winter to provide a comfortable living environment.
Keeping your home comfortable throughout the year can also be expensive, which is why it’s important to make sure your HVAC system is running as efficiently as possible.
Regular cleaning and maintenance on your HVAC system is important to keeping your system running properly and to also extend the life of your system. An annual maintenance plan is essential to keeping your system running smoothly.
It is also highly recommended to have your ductwork cleaned on a regular basis. If you have a very old HVAC system or if you are using fibre board or other non-metal ductwork, you may want to consider replacing your ductwork system to keep your air clean in the home. George Lloyd, of LLoyd HVAC, who provides ductwork installation in Toronto, says that most ductwork can be cleaned, unless you are using a non-metal, flexible ductwork, which may been to be replaced as it can be difficult to clean fibre-glass or similar flexible ductwork over time.
