During the summer, much attention is paid to proper attic insulation, air conditioning unit inspections and coolant levels, along with putting your thermostat on an energy efficient cycle. However, cleaning your air ducts can often be an overlooked yet very important step in air conditioning effectiveness.

Highland Village TX air duct cleaning service from Southern Comfort & Mechanical is a vital part of keeping the air in your home not only clean, but flowing productively. An air duct system is a breeding ground for bacteria, animal dander, mold, and dust mites. These impurities can cause allergic reactions, breathing difficulties, infections and disease. Proper ventilation not only ensures the indoor air quality is up to stringent standards, but also removes smells, excess moisture, introduces outside air, removes bacteria, keeps air circulating throughout your home, and prevents stagnation.

Southern Comfort & Mechanical utilizes state-of-the-art air duct cleaning equipment to eliminate the contaminants in your home air duct structure that may be harmful to you, your family or your employees. According to McKinsey Quarterly, dirty coils and ducts use as much as 30% more energy than clean ones and the EPA ranks indoor air pollution among the top five health risks. Your Highland Village air conditioning company will help you eliminate the risk.

PlanetGreen.com is one of the best sources nationally pertaining to energy conservation and sustainable living. The website recently launched 10 top home heating tips as the country continues its battle with Old Man Winter.

Among the tips, proper insulation and ventilation proved to be a major topic of discussion. As the temperature drops, it’s more and more important to have good insulation. PlanetGreen.com speaks of draftpooling, which focuses on sealing the leaks around your windows and doors to keep the cool draft outdoors. Insulation strips, door sweeps and silicone caulk tubes should help in keeping the cold weather out and the heat in.

With draftpooling come proper ventilation techniques. The last thing you want is a comfortable facility that lacks good ventilation. Condensation can grow in places like this, which can cause mold and mildew. That can lead to health issues in extreme situations. PlanetGreen.com suggests cross-ventilation (opening a window or two for several minutes in a day) to combat homes that aren’t as ventilated.

In “going green” with fighting the winter, it is suggested to purchase radiant barriers. These energy-efficient items can cut heat loss significantly while keeping you warm. Also suggested are exterior storm windows, which can increase the temperature of an inside window by as much as 30 degrees.
