Alhambra Air Duct Cleaning Experts
Did you know that indoor air is considered by the E.P.A. to be up to 5 times more polluted than outdoor air? To make matters worse, most people spend 90% of their time, indoors! These statistics hold true even here in Southern California, where we are surrounded by ocean, forests, and endless outdoor recreation.
What does this indoor pollution consist of? The answer may shock you – cooking vapors, drywall dust, pet dander, dust mites, pollen, allergens, bacteria, house-hold chemicals, second hand cigarette smoke, mold spores and much more!

What does polluted indoor air have to do with our air ducts? Plenty! While some indoor air pollutants settle on the carpet, or the furniture, and is wiped up as “dust”, most of it is sucked into our air vents by our HVAC system. There, it begins lining the inner walls of our air ducts. Over time, breathing these substances can cause illness in people, and pets alike.
Q: What are some of the symptoms of breathing indoor air pollution?
A: The symptoms are very similar to having the flu – coughing, body aches, headaches, hacking and sneezing, watery eyes, and runny nose. Most people write this off to having caught the latest “bug” that is going around.
Asthma and allergy sufferers usually fare much worse. An average of 200,000 asthma patients a year are admitted to emergency rooms because of exposure to dust mites, animal dander and saliva. Children and elderly are also a higher risk group, as they generally tend to have weaker immune systems.
Q: I don’t feel ill. Does this mean that my air ducts are clean?
A: No, not really – people and pets can all react differently. For some, the illness is mild. For others, a general feeling of lethargy is quite common. For best and safest results, order an air duct inspection from Alhambra Carpet Cleaning Experts and see for sure whether you need to proceed with a full cleaning, or not.
Q: What methods does your company use to clean out my air ducts?
A: Expert Carpet Cleaning in Azusa uses high powered vacuum systems to blow-out, and suck up the offending pollutants right out of your air vents. Just before they are removed, these pollutants are scrubbed right off of the walls and floors of your ducts with the use of industrial strength brushes. All of the pollutants are then sucked right into disposable canisters for safe and convenient removal.
