Colorado has an average annual relative humidity of only 36%. Since these conditions are so dry, dust tends to remain airborne and is drawn into the ventilation system. This means it settles and is trapped in your duct systems after being sucked into the return side of your furnace.
Indoor dust can come from the outdoors, plants, and remodels in your home. Other sources of dust that collect in your home include dead skin cells, pet hair, fibers from carpets, and upholstered furniture.

Why Should I Get My Ductwork Cleaned?
There’s a continuous cycle of airflow in your home. Over time, dust bypasses your furnace filter. Particles of dust, allergens, and other debris cling to the walls of your air ducts.
As those dust particles gather in your HVAC ductwork, it builds up, reducing airflow and making your furnace and AC system work harder. This ends up costing you more on your energy bill to heat and cool your home.
Not to mention the dust and particles you’re circulating throughout your home every time your furnace or AC blower motor turns on.
How Do Pet Dander & Pet Hair Impact Your Ducts?
Pet hair and ducts don’t mix well. Both pet hair and pet dander pose a huge risk to the integrity of your HVAC system and, specifically, your ducting. If you have a dog or cat, or any animal that sheds, you should have your ducts cleaned at least every six months if not more.
Pet hair can collect quickly in the ducts and blower motor of the furnace and start to harbor bacteria. This can quickly cause breathing and lung issues in the home for you and your pets. Clogging in the furnace blower motor often happens from pet hair.
Have you ever looked at the underneath of your vacuum at home? Imagine that hair and dander getting stuck in your furnace’s blower motor. This would likely cause it to blow the pet hair into your ducts for the second round or have it fail prematurely.
How Does Home Remodeling Impact Air Circulation in Your Home?
After a remodel, the last thing you might think of is cleaning your ducts, but it’s an extremely good idea. Home renovations generate many contaminants like drywall dust and mudding. Whenever a wall in your home is cut into, taken down, or put up, the amount of drywall dust that enters your system is astounding.
That drywall dust now becomes recirculated into your home at least five to seven times per day, according to the HVAC Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Association.
Are Your Air Ducts the Cause of Seasonal Allergies?
During spring in Colorado, you might hear sneezing and coughing and notice your family’s red, itchy eyes. It’s common sense if you have allergies or are sensitive to seasonal changes to get your ducts cleaned regularly.
The constant rotation of air through your HVAC system pushes more of these irritants through your home and starts to gather them in your ducts as well.
Some ways to determine if your ducts might be the culprit of your allergies are:
- Have your ducts ever been cleaned when you lived at your home?
- Is your asthma or allergies not well controlled even though you take your medicine?
- Do you notice your symptoms heightening when you turn on your HVAC system?
- Does your house collect dust even though you clean it regularly?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, it’s a good idea to at least call Absolute Plumbing, Electrical, Heating & Air and request a duct cleaning consultation.
In the worst case, there might be debris from rodents and cockroaches in your ducting system. If you notice any of these pests in your home, we recommend a full duct cleaning immediately.

Your Home Needs Regular Duct Cleaning
We spend over 90% of our lives indoors, according to EPA.gov. It’s important to keep the air circulating in your home as clean as possible. Your ducts can house extreme amounts of dust, dander, and harmful microbes.
Even near the registers of your furnace outlets, you can see the dust that begins to form in your ducts. This is just the start of where the dust settles and the smallest portion of your whole HVAC system.
Most homes in Colorado aren’t getting their recommended duct cleaning. This can cause irritation for homeowners or occupants as dust buildup is one of the main triggers of asthma and nose infections.
Most homes might not have even had their home’s ducts cleaned since they were built. Imagine that your ducts have dust from the 1960s!
Dryer Vent Cleaning
There are some safety benefits to cleaning your dryer lines. Your dryer lines don’t have a big diameter, so the lint, debris, and dust can build up easily to clog the system. This can lead the dryer to overheat and break down. It can also cause a serious incident like a house fire.
According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), dryer systems start 16,000 house fires each year. While lint is annoying, it can cause even bigger problems like house fires because it’s extremely flammable.
