The Hidden Problem in Your Air Duct System
Your home's HVAC system processes thousands of cubic feet of air daily. Over time, your ductwork becomes a collection point for:
- Dust and debris
- Pet dander and hair
- Pollen and other allergens
- Mold spores
- Bacteria and viruses
These contaminants don't just sit idle— they circulate throughout your home every time your system runs. Even with regular air filter changes, your ducts can accumulate layers of debris that affect your indoor air quality and system efficiency. That's why we offer professional air duct cleaning and sanitizing to help restore your home's indoor environment.
What Is HVAC Sanitization?
HVAC sanitization is a thorough cleaning process that goes beyond standard duct cleaning. Our HVAC sanitizer treatment eliminates harmful microorganisms hiding in your ductwork and prevents their regrowth. This service helps:
- Kill bacteria and viruses
- Prevent mold growth
- Reduce allergens and bad odors
- Improve indoor air quality
- Promote better HVAC system efficiency

Why Sanitize Your Air Ducts?
Unclean air ducts create a habitat for bacteria and mold to flourish. These pollutants can then spread throughout your home, leading to numerous problems, such as:
- Allergy symptoms
- Respiratory illnesses
- Musty odors throughout the home
- Increased breathing issues for asthma sufferers, elderly, and people with compromised immune systems
- Throat, nose, and lung irritation
- The spread of germs
Maintaining clean air ducts and making sure they're free of harmful pollutants is crucial to yours and your family's well-being. Contact us at Mercurio's Heating & Air Conditioning today to set up a service appointment!
How Often Should You Sanitize Your Air Ducts?
For most homes, we recommend HVAC sanitization every 3-5 years. However, you might need more frequent service if you:
- Have pets
- Live with allergy sufferers, infants, seniors, or people with compromised immune systems
- Live in a humid environment
It's a good idea to schedule an air duct sanitizing service if any of the following apply to your situation, as well:
- You recently completed home renovations

- You recently dealt with water damage in your home
