WHY AIR DUCT CLEANING IS A PRIORITY

Systems in need of cleaning are not hard to spot. If it looks dirty, it probably is. Everyday life can lead to a build-up of pollutants, from the dust and dander created by our bodies to the residual particles that emanate from the chemicals we use. Other contributing factors can include, pets, occupants that smoke, or recent renovations to the space. Contaminants stay in the air and cycle through the system several times in a single day, and over time that leads to a compromise in air quality. Therefore, it is recommended to have ducts cleaned every few years, the goal being to decrease indoor pollutants while increasing the amount of fresh air that circulates throughout the space. Some signs that may indicate your system is ready for a cleaning include, large collections of dust or debris on vents, significant mold growth, or vermin in the ducts. Adverse effects on your health may also serve as a warning, such as respiratory ailments or allergies. Dirty ducts are also a waste of energy in that the dirt causes the system to work harder, leading to more energy consumption. Clearing out all that clutter can lead to an increase in efficiency and cost effectiveness.

PHILADELPHIA AIR DUCT CLEANING SERVICES

Resolving issues with air quality is not limited to just homes, especially in an urban center like Philadelphia. Many people work or visit public and private buildings in which they have little or no control over the quality of air or its circulation. Many buildings from factories and offices to schools and apartment buildings still suffer from inadequate ventilation. This makes air duct cleaning a priority for business owners or building managers so that they may better protect their occupants.
EHC VS COMPETITORS
The air duct cleaning Philadelphia requires is unique. As a center of history and culture, Philadelphia is one of the largest urban centers in the nation. It is home to buildings ranging from a few years to a few centuries old. Such a variety of architecture coupled with a dense population means the duct cleaning service Philadelphia needs requires experienced and certified professionals, with a proven reputation of quality work. EHC prides itself on its strict adherence to recommendations put forth by the National Air Duct Cleaners Associations. A complete cleaning should begin with a thorough inspection to give clients a full picture of the system’s condition. This inspection should include a check for asbestos-containing or other hazardous materials. On average, it should take 2 to 3 techs working 8 to 10 hours to complete a cleaning depending on the size and accessibility of the system as well as the level of contamination. A qualified team will also use highly efficient equipment that dislodges debris and vents particles outside of the house. The following components should be included in the process:

Ducts
Registers
Grills
Drain pans
Humidifiers
Heat exchangers
Coils
Fans (motor and housing)
Lower components
Filters
Cleaners
Plenum space
Unit housing

QUALITY DUCTWORK CLEANING MATTERS

At EHC, we also go beyond just air duct cleaning. We work to respect the client space by taking precautions to protect interior furnishings. We also make sure the system will work to its maximum capacity afterwards but checking to confirm it is using the recommended components noted by the manufacturer.

Beware of companies who offer discount duct cleaning service in Philadelphia, as they may lack the experience and know how to perform a thorough job. They will often tempt clients with a price much lower than the industry standard. But with a lower cost often comes lesser attention to detail. In their haste, most companies miss cleaning critical components. Some even use improper equipment such as shop vacs. An inadequate duct cleaning can compromise the efficiency of the system, increasing pollutant levels and decrease the amount of fresh air introduced into the environment. This can elevate temperature and humidity levels which can go on to have a long-term impact.

EHC provides air duct cleaning service that Philadelphia can count on. We have decades of experience and knowledgeable technicians who specialize in the duct cleaning homes and businesses need most. Most importantly, EHC exceeds client needs by offering the time and expertise required to ensure the long-term quality of any air duct.

Alex and the EHC team were professional, prompt, and organized throughout their work on the Lincoln University Gymnasium Renovation project. Communication was clear, scheduling was efficient, and their crew maintained a safe and well-coordinated jobsite. They demonstrated strong attention to detail and delivered exactly as promised. I’d highly recommend EHC and Alex Henriquez for any future construction projects.

Alex Henriquez and EHC abatement crew did a nice job at the Kendal Project. Had a few tough days working around other contractors that made it difficult for his crew to perform their work, but he made it happen! Pleasure working with them, looking forward to the next phase!

We are very pleased with the work done by EHC. Starting with Elio with the assessment, Colleen and Barbara with the contract and scheduling, Dan with the prework walk through, and Alex and his team with the lead abatement. Alex explained the process with us and had his team take photos and videos of our problem areas. He was professional, friendly, helpful, and thorough.

It was a distinct pleasure to interact with Elio. His affable demeanor and accommodating nature were readily apparent, reflecting the qualities of a true gentleman.The circumstances presented a considerable degree of stress. Elio demonstrated exceptional patience by thoroughly explaining the situation and outlining available options, ensuring a clear understanding of the path forward. Furthermore, he provided invaluable assistance with the necessary documentation. His efforts were instrumental in alleviating our concerns. Throughout the years, we have engaged with numerous contractors and sales representatives. However, Elio's level of accommodation and helpfulness is unparalleled. He is a truly exceptional individual.

There is not enough stars on here to give credit to the young man that came to my house to give me information about Asbestos, the gauge on my furnace and clean up in my basement. His name is ELIO. I am hoping to get my basement cleaned out and i will get it done by your company. Elio was so very helpful !

e.h.c. was contracted to remove flooring asbestos from my residence. Their service was outstanding from my initial contact through the removal process. Crew was prompt, courteous, and the job was completed within the specified time frame. The work area was left in spotless condition. Luis was the crew leader and he was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend e.h.c. for any project involving the removal of hazardous materials.

After calling around to different companies I decided to have EHC remove around 1000sqft of asbestos from my home. Elio, Alex & their team made the process quick, efficient and easy from start to finish. Their work was impeccable and their professionalism in taking care of everything was astounding. I can’t recommend them enough!
