Hidden Dangers of Dirty Ducts
Posted On: July 28, 2021
Dirty ducts hold so much threat to your overall health and safety. Experts strongly suggest that you have your duct system inspected and cleaned to prevent allergens and contaminants from decreasing your home’s indoor air quality.
Below, we recount the many hidden dangers lurking in dirty ducts. Make sure to give this a good read so you can make the best decision for your home and loved ones.
Allergens in the air you breathe
Dust can build up in your ducts and can cause allergens to circulate in the air you breathe. This can trigger respiratory problems and also skin irritations when left to escalate. This can be a great threat to people with existing allergies and may also cause certain individuals to develop allergies over time.
Dust can be made of many things but is ultimately considered a health hazard.
Asbestos
Asbestos used to be one of the most common types of insulation used in homes but they have since been replaced because of the health hazard they pose. Asbestos is a known cause of mesothelioma, which is a type of cancer that develops in the thin layer that covers many internal organs. Asbestos is also a known cause of lung cancer. These pose serious health threats to anyone exposed to it.
Inhaling mold spores
Mould and fungi can cause health issues and also structural damage to your home that can escalate pretty quickly. Inhaling mold spores is never good; it can cause seasonal allergic reactions and even serious respiratory problems. Mould inhalation can also cause dizziness and headaches. Make sure to contact a professional who can thoroughly inspect your ducts and provide you with the most accurate remedy.
Among the most common health issues caused by inhaling contaminated air for an extended amount of time are asthma, skin asthma, respiratory infections, and allergies.
Cleaning your ducts will not only make your home a safer place for everyone but can also help your HVAC system run more efficiently. You can never go wrong with investing in professional HVAC cleaning and inspection. With the many benefits they provide, they are an investment that keeps on giving.

This is the second time we have had Twintech to our house. A couple of summers ago they were in for an issue with our air conditioning. This time it was our furnace having an issue. It was shutting off randomly and not coming back on. Greg came right away and took the time to investigate thoroughly and explain what was going with the furnace. Both times I have been thoroughly impressed with their speed, customer service, and quality of work. I HIGHLY recommend Twintech.

Extremely happy.
So we were in no rush to replace our old units and took the time to do some research and get a number of quotes.
Twintech came in at around the middle of the pack for price but what convinced us to go with them was Bob, the representative that came to our house. Bob was by far the most professional of all the reps that we met with. He took the time to explain everything, what would work best for us and why. He really did seem very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his stuff.
As promised on the day of install the crew showed up on time and got to work with minimal impact on us
..they were professional, clean, tidy and got the system up and running ahead of schedule...they made a couple of adjustments to the system to optimize it for our house.
The crew left the house clean and tidy.
Bob the rep showed up to check in and give us a few tips ..
It's been a week since install and all is good.
Our overall experience with Twintech has been excellent from start to finish and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
Thank u.

It was a refreshing experience interacting with the Twintech team. From Bob, the sales consultant, who articulated in layman's terms all the options available and reasons for making any selection. This was done without the prevailing pressure tactics so commonplace today.
Before proceeding Mitch, the technician, at our request conducted a service check on our 30 yr old furnace. His report was positive indicating no urgency to replace it. Again no pressure tactics.
Three days after first meeting with Bob, the installation team of Greg and
Spencer completed the installation within the planned time frame.
A very professional, courteous and transparent team which delivered on their promise. I highly recommend Twintech.

I had a great experience with TwinTech. The company offered a reasonable quote, and performed a quick and clean installation. The installer Greg was experienced, professional and courteous. He explained the services he performed and gave recommendations on maintain the new furnace.
The salesman Bob was honest
and professional and educated me on how to achieve optimal performance.
All communication from them was quick and they came the following day. I was pleased with the service and would recommend them.

I had a really great experience with these guys. The salesman Bob was clearly very knowledgeable about everything to do with heating and cooling a home, spent a lot of time with us going over the details of the job, never rushed us and came back after the install to make sure we were happy. The installation crew was excellent, they covered the floors all the way from outside down to the basement furnace room, kept the place clean, got the work done on time and were very friendly. Ive got 15 years in the contracting/ construction industry and these guys are one of the most professional companys Ive dealt with. Great company!

Had great service and clean-up was good. Was happy with my salesman. They were very friendly and helpful. I needed a new furnace as our was over 20 years old. The furnace and air-conditioner work great and they are very quiet. I am very pleased with the service and product I received.

We are very happy with this company and their services and we definitely recommend them to others. Thankful my sister recommended them to me!

Reviews for Twintech were good, and they did not disappoint. After an initial visit to discuss the suitable AC unit for replacement, an installation date was available in just a couple of days, and everything was installed without a hitch. Highly recommended
