The first thing we did the moment we were born was breathe, and it will also be the last thing we will ever do. Breathing is a vital and constant need, with the average person taking between 17,280 to 23,040 breaths per day. Most people don’t usually think about breathing, nor do they give much thought to what they are breathing. Unless the air smells bad or is thick enough to make you cough, breathing is a pretty automatic process. But have you ever stopped and wondered about the quality of air we breathe every day? What you don’t see can hurt you if you breathe it in long enough.
Despite being such a necessary activity in our daily life, breathing can still pose threats to our health. The American Lung Association found that the air quality in the United States got worse from 2015 to 2017. The changing climate is quickly degrading the quality of air, making it harder to protect our health from the environmental pollutants that we get from breathing.
As we suffer from harmful and polluted air, some risks that we get exposed to from breathing are simply unavoidable. But one risk we can avoid and do something about is the quality of air we breathe indoors.
What Is Air Duct Cleaning?
If you live in the Kansas City area, you know our air is some of the cleanest in the country — outside, at least, as nature has ways of removing hazards and particulates from the air. Inside can be a different matter. Air pollution does not necessarily stop being an issue when we come indoors.
Surprisingly, indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outside air. On average, Americans spend approximately 90% of their time indoors, which is why the potential impact of indoor air quality on our health should not be overlooked. When the quality of air in a closed space is not maintained, it can cause breathing problems and illnesses, especially in children and seniors.
When you opt for air duct cleaning for your Kansas City home, your ducts will be free of dust, dirt, debris, bacteria and mold. We use specialized blowers, vacuums and brushes to clean out the ducts in your home. According to the World Health Organization, cities with larger populations tend to have poorer air quality—even indoors. So if you live in a populous city such as Overland Park, cleaning your air ducts is advisable.
Benefits of Air Duct Cleaning
The air ducts in your home or building play an important role in your indoor air quality. Having your air ducts cleaned removes the dust and contaminants from your home. Aside from that, getting your air ducts cleaned reduces irritants in the air and removes odors. Air duct cleaning not only provides a healthier environment, but gives you a fresher-smelling home.

DO I NEED AIR CONDITIONING REPAIR?
If you live in the Kansas City area, you know that a good air conditioner is a necessity in the summer. If you notice your home or business is hot inside despite your air conditioner running at full blast, you might think you need air conditioner repair or service. But many people are surprised to find that a thorough air duct cleaning solves the problem.
Central A/C systems typically move 400 to 450 cubic feet of air per minute through your ducts. Imagine how much harder they have to work—and how much less air they end up moving—if your ducts are clogged. Like cholesterol in an artery, dirt, dust, and debris can build up and reduce the amount of air that flows through your ducts. This means you’re wasting energy and money cooling that junk in your ducts rather than cooling your home or business.
HOW WE CLEAN YOUR AIR DUCTS
Kansas City Clean Air uses the latest technology and technicians with 64 combined years of experience in air duct cleaning to ensure the air in your home or business is as pure and clean as the air outside.
We start with a thorough inspection of your ducts. We use fiber optic cameras to look for buildups of dust, dirt, and debris, as well as breaches or gaps in the seams that could allow particulates in. We then use brushes and sweepers to knock loose the gunk that has built up on the walls of your ducts. Once that is complete, we close off your vent and use powerful vacuum suction to remove the loosened dirt and debris. Finally, we perform a second camera inspection of your ducts to ensure that we successfully removed all of the dirt and allergens from your duct system.
