Hiring a Pro for Duct and Furnace Cleaning

There are various parts of the house that require regular cleaning and maintenance in order for them to function efficiently. Ducts and furnaces are perfect examples of items that need to be checked on a regular basis, since they not only affect the quality of indoor temperature, but also your home's energy consumption. Though there are techniques for cleaning them by yourself, nothing beats having a professional do it. Here are a few tips when choosing a furnace cleaning provider.

  1. Check their track record and reputation – Research and due diligence will come a long way as far as choosing the right cleaning experts is concerned. Be sure to check the track record of the cleaning company you intend to tap for the job and find out the reputation they built in their years of service.
  2. Examine the services – Another thing you should do is to examine the list of services they are offering. Go for the ones that offer the most comprehensive services that will cover all areas that affect the performance of your ducts and furnaces.
  3. Approved and recommended – Lastly, find out their standing as far as regulating groups and other organizations are concerned. Check if they are members of the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and if they received exceptional ratings for providing quality customer service.

Furnace Died? What to Do Until Calgary Furnace Repair Experts Arrive

Winter has been particularly harsh this year, and just recently a massive storm hit Canada’s Atlantic regions. CTVNews.ca reports that:

    A massive and powerful storm was causing havoc across eastern Canada on Sunday, causing a multi-vehicle pileup that shut down a bridge linking two Maritime provinces.

    Environment Canada says the major winter storm blanketed New Brunswick with snow overnight Saturday and into Sunday and brought a mix of rain, freezing rain, ice pellets and snow to Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.

    “We saw quite significant amounts of snow in eastern New Brunswick, anywhere from 41 centimetres in Bathurst to 31 centimetres in Moncton,” said meteorologist Jeremy March in Halifax on Sunday.

Furnace Cleaning in Calgary Homes Can Prevent Winter Allergy Attacks

For allergy sufferers, winter is commonly perceived as a break from allergy attacks. Just because there aren’t any flowers to spread around pollen, however, doesn’t mean you won’t be sniffling or tearing up. As NewsCanada.com reports, winter could also be a season for allergies:

    “Colder temperatures often mean tuques, cozy winter boots and plenty of hot cocoa. But, they also mean more time inside and the potential for increased exposure to indoor allergens. This is especially worrying for those with asthma.

    It’s not just pollen and spring allergens that can cause asthma attacks. The air quality in your home during winter can have a significant impact on your lung health. In particular, household dust and animal dander are known to easily irritate or aggravate current and pre-existing asthma symptoms.”
