Duct Cleaning Canterbury

100 years ago most buildings had windows you could open to ensure a continual flow of fresh air. Not anymore. Most contemporary buildings are practically vacuum-sealed against the outdoors. This makes it easier to maintain a stable interior environment but creates other problems, most notably the accumulation of airborne pollutants in the duct work and the health threat they pose to the building’s occupants. CleanAir UK provide expert air duct cleaning in Canterbury that will ensure a safe, hygienic environment as well as compliance with government clean air regulations.

First of all, because it’s the law. There are a host of statutes in play that lay out in no uncertain terms the responsibilities of building owners when it comes to maintaining a healthy indoor environment. These include:

• The 1999 Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations

  that very clearly indicate the responsibilities of the building owner.

• The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992

  . These cover owner responsibilities regarding the upkeep of mechanical ventilation systems and the associated ductwork.

• Approved Code of Practice L24

  which covers the regular cleaning of all aspects of mechanical ventilation systems in commercial buildings.

Besides the fact that there are numerous regulations on the books governing the cleaning and maintenance of mechanical ventilation systems, having your air ducts professionally cleaned will provide an array of benefits.

• Your staff members are likely to take fewer sick days and be more productive
• A healthier work environment will make it easier for you to retain important staff members
• The efficiency of your HVAC system is likely to improve and breakdowns become less frequent
• A more efficient HVAC system will ultimately result in lower energy bills
• Reduced energy consumption also means a reduced carbon footprint
