Contrary to popular belief, ductless air conditioning and ductless heating are not maintenance-free. It does require periodic care and between peak seasons is the ideal time for cleaning and service. Not only does proper upkeep improve overall air quality, but it also extends unit life, energy efficiency, and system performance.
A dirty HVAC system is also a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses. Once bacteria enters your system, they can get stuck in any buildup along the ducts.
Dirty air ducts cause your HVAC system to work harder to meet your homes needs. An HVAC system works harder requires more energy, which means higher bills.
Mildew and mold trapped in your air ducts can bring a musty odor in your home. It may become used to it once you have been exposed to it for an extended period.

During normal usage, condensation builds up on internal components, including the coils and condenser. Condensation leads to the growth of bacteria, mold, and other allergens, which can’t be eliminated by basic cleaning. Tragar’s service technicians will safely and effectively clean and sanitize your ductless system.
Ductless cleaning kits are available at home improvement stores and online. What these kits contain are simplified versions of what’s needed. A home cleaning kit doesn’t include the proper anti-microbial cleaning chemicals, including those required for adequate mold elimination, electrical testing kits to ensure the proper unit function, and appropriate safety gear.
The most important thing that home cleaning kits don’t contain is the proper experience and training for appropriate techniques. Damage to your ductless system can happen many times during the cleaning process.
Extend the life of your ductless system and improve your home’s air quality with a thorough cleaning service performed by Tragar’s professional HVAC maintenance technicians. To schedule your appointment, call (516) 221-2559 today.
