Problems of Dirty Air Ducts

If you realize you haven’t had the air system in your place of business cleaned in a while, you might not think it's a big deal, maybe you can push it off until later, right? But air ducts that pump out dirty air can actually have very negative effects on employees, customers/clients or anyone else in the building, and you might not realize until it's too late. Dust and debris that re-enter the air may cause allergies or respiratory issues, headaches, flu symptoms, or greatly worsen symptoms for people who already have respiratory issues. Mold growth in the air ducts can be even worse, causing even more severe symptoms of allergy and respiratory issues, creating a work environment that won’t be healthy for anyone. It can flat out make you feel tired and sick. Austin, Texas has really bad allergies and its important to keep your home and office clean.

Air Ducts

Air ducts are notorious for hoarding allergens like dust, dander, and pollen! Have your air ducts checked regularly to make sure they aren’t worsening your allergies, or causing unnecessary mess in your home!

Baseboards

Baseboards are also known for holding in dust and dirt, and are often neglected on cleaning day. This spring, let’s turn that all around, friends! Run you floor mop along the baseboards to give them a deep cleaning, too!

Window Blinds

Window blinds are dusty and dirty and difficult to clean. But the latter is not the case with steam cleaning! In fact, The Steam Team can most likely steam clean them right from where they hang! No need to take them down or tub wash them. Just call in the professionals!
