For anyone living in the Eastman area, you can call us directly after a disaster to clean and restore your ventilation ducts. These can be affected by a variety of disasters, depending on their location, construction material, surrounding use and other factors. Here are some of the most common losses that can affect ventilation ducts.
Water infiltration
If your ventilation ducts are not properly sealed or insulated, water can seep in. The risks increase with heavy rainfall. The result: rust and mildew. Water infiltration can have serious repercussions. Indoor air quality and building structure may be affected.
In the event of fire, ventilation ducts can act as conductors of flame, heat and smoke. They thus contribute to spreading damage and increasing danger. Inadequate design or insufficient maintenance of these elements can worsen the situation in the event of a disaster.
Accumulated dust, debris, pet hair, mold and other particles can clog ventilation ducts. This can lead to a significant reduction in the efficiency of the ventilation system. In addition to reducing indoor air quality, this situation is detrimental to the system’s overall performance.
When renovating or building, ventilation ducts can be damaged by human error. These may be hammer blows or accidental perforations. Ducts located outside a building can also be vulnerable to vandalism. They are exposed to physical damage or intrusion attempts.
Ventilation ducts can become havens for insect pests and rodents. This intrusion will damage the pipes themselves. The presence of undesirables can also significantly affect indoor air quality. This entails health risks.
In the event of a claim, call on us. At Ventilo Exp’air, we can take stock of the situation. We will also provide you with recommendations for any necessary repairs. Every effort will be made to preserve the integrity of your ventilation ducts. It’s important to ensure a safe and healthy indoor environment.
