Ventilation systems are often the biggest culprits in poor indoor air quality. Make it a priority to inspect the ductwork of your home or business.

According to the EPA:

You should consider having the air ducts in your home cleaned if-

• There is substantial visible mold growth inside hard surface ducts or on other components of your heating and cooling system.
• There is an odd smell coming from the duct system.
• Ducts are infested with vermin, e.g. (rodents or insects)
• Ducts are clogged with excessive amounts of dust and debris and/or particles are released into the home from your supply registers.

Some research also suggests that cleaning dirty cooling coils, fans and heat exchangers can improve the efficiency of heating and cooling systems.
