Although employers have a duty of responsibility to their building's occupants under Health and Safety employees will appreciate them for taking extra care of the air quality, especially if they suffer from allergies. Who has not empathised with a colleague struggling to work during the annual hay fever season? Air conditioning in the building may help them immensely but it also helps people who suffer from dust and other allergies and asthma. But any ducted air system in a building, whether it's for heating or air conditioning, usually involves air being circulated in what's effectively a closed and sealed system, so it needs to be kept in good condition. The efficienty of a duct system can be affected by the quantity of the dust particles, bacteria, moulds, excess moisture and fibres that all collect in them. If it's not kept clean they will build up over time. Mould and mildew thrive in dark, dank places like duct systems, where they release microscopic spores that people inhale. Dust is actually an assortment of minute particles of bug fragments, mould spores, bits of plastic and can be a particular menace in the winter, when windows and doors are kept closed.Air duct cleaning duct maintenance and cleaning allergies dust allergies hay fever air quality productivity
