Season Change Offers Air Quality Improvement Options 

You rely on your cooling and heating equipment to keep the interior of your Henrio home comfortable. Periodic heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system evaluations are beneficial to ensure optimum efficiency. The best time to schedule an assessment is during a pause between AC and heating seasons. While the system is temporarily idle, the LightSpeed of Richmond West professionals can inspect the ductwork, heating and cooling equipment inside, and any humidifiers, dehumidifiers, and air-moving components. When we notice problems, we can address them without disrupting heating and cooling operations.

Our Remote “Tour” of Your HVAC System

Homeowners often consider arranging for deeper cleaning when they notice increasing amounts of airborne dust and dark streaks around the vents and registers. Pulling grills away from walls and floors only gives you a limited look at the interior condition of air ducts. To truly assess the situation, you need to dig a little deeper. The National Air Duct Cleaning Association (NADCA)-certified technicians from LightSpeed of Richmond West use a flexible borescope that threads through HVAC systems’ ductwork, illuminating all nooks and crannies with built-in light as the device’s camera records a real-time inspection of the air ducts and the heating, cooling, and humidifying (and dehumidifying in some cases) equipment. Our workers then have the necessary data to plan and implement effective air duct cleaning and climate control units’ maintenance, repair, and replacement as needed. 

Fall Is a Perfect Air Duct Cleaning Fit

Air conditioner components have worked hard all summer and require a check-up and cleaning as indicated: 

  • Cooling coils need cleaning, and condensation pans require residue removal to drain away fluids appropriately, preventing water damage and mold growth. 

  • Any mold growth detected inside air ducts must receive professional remediation services to prevent the spread of potentially harmful irritants and mold growth that can damage building materials throughout the home.

  • Pollen production peaks in the late summer and fall, and as foliage dries and falls, pollens, spores, and active molds hitch rides inside houses and are sucked into HVAC systems. Clearing out these contaminants dramatically improves air quality before closing the house for the winter.

  • Clean heaters and blowers work most efficiently, so it is crucial to get them in tip-top condition before switching the heat on.

  • Updating and upgrading HVAC filters is a typical and routine air duct cleaning service for Henrico homes. Scheduling it each fall ensures you take advantage of its benefits.
