Healthy Air, Save Money

(NAPS)—Clearing the air in your home could help your family breathe better and save you some cash.

That's the advice from experts who say that the accumulation of everyday dust and dirt—along with pet dander, smoke residue and other contaminants—in a home's ductwork can cause a number of health problems and boost your utility bills.

People with asthma or allergies, and young children and older adults, may be especially susceptible to indoor air contaminants.

The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) says that airhandler units should be inspected once a year and cleaned as needed.

When hiring an HVAC inspection, maintenance and restoration contractor, the EPA recommends only the use of service providers that comply with NADCA air duct cleaning standards.
