What is Duct Cleaning?
Duct cleaning is the deep cleaning of air ducting in a building to remove dust, dirt and contaminants. Whilst air ducts do not need cleaning as regularly as a kitchen extract system, duct cleaning is required once every two years to remove the build up of detritus. Air duct cleaning is required in all buildings with air conditioning.
What is the Purpose of the Air Duct Within the Commercial Kitchen?
Air ducts control the air quality in a room, diluting odours by replacing them with natural air. This helps to maintain a healthy air quality for commercial kitchen staff. Generally there is one duct over the cooking equipment and one over the pot wash. Air ducts also provide positive pressures, forcing air into the room, which is necessary for the kitchen extract to work effectively.
Why do They Need Cleaning?
Ducts need a good clean because they can get very dusty inside. If equipment is not well-maintained, dirt, grime and debris can clog the filters, stopping the equipment working.
Regular duct cleaning also helps to prevent sick building syndrome, which is most commonly caused by poor air quality and biological contaminations such as moulds, bacteria and viruses which breed in air ducts. Regular duct cleaning will help to maintain good air quality and remove any harmful contaminants helping to maintain the health of the workforce.
How Long Does it Take to Carry Out Duct Cleaning?
The time it takes for the work to be carried out varies on the amount of ducting the premises has. A no-obligation quote and cleaning time estimate will be provided on receipt of your enquiry.
How do Ingot Services Quote for the Job – do They Charge a Flat Hourly Rate or Visit a Site to Provide a Quotation?
Ingot can generally provide a quote over the phone if we know the clients' exact requirements and the size of ducting that needs to be cleaned. We will then confirm this quote by e-mail. With more unusual cases, or for large jobs , we may need to carry out a no obligation site visit.
When do Ingot Services Carry out Duct Cleaning Services?
