Pro Ace Heating & Cooling Ltd. Burnaby: Cleaning Office Air Ducts Improves Indoor Air Quality at Work

NEW YORK, NY, July 19, 2012 (Press-News.org) Hot summer months may have many office employees praising workplace air conditioning; however, for many workers, the workplace can be a place to develop severe signs of sickness. In a recent article from The Hartford Courant, there are several reports that reveal workers "develop chronic coughs and sneezing, scratchy throats, itchy eyes and even headaches" during their time at the office. While the symptoms typically go away after work, they return the next day, making office life miserable for many employees. Pro Ace Heating & Cooling Ltd. Burnaby explains that these problems might have a major connection to the office air conditioning system.

This epidemic of unhealthy office space is not just limited to low-quality offices; high-level administration, police officers, social workers and even court staff are making claims of these mysterious symptoms. While the article explains that most employees believe that these problems are connected to mold, there are no mold problems located in any of these office buildings. CONN OSHA occupational hygienist, Brian Sauvageau explains, "The culprit isn't mold. It is dust--the tiny particles of fiber, skin scales, insect parts, pollen, cobwebs and dirt that settle on surfaces everywhere."

While these findings should encourage companies to conduct extensive cleaning on a regular basis, Pro Ace Heating & Cooling Ltd. Burnaby reveals that the problem may not always be on the surface. The company is experienced with the maintenance and upkeep of several home appliances responsible for heating and cooling--including air conditioners. The company reports that dust can remain in air ducts for years and will continue to build, be dispersed and make employees sick.

While many homeowners opt to take advantage of an air duct cleaning service to improve indoor air quality, Pro Ace notes that office spaces actually require more attention. "Work environments normally need more regular maintenance done since there is more traffic. Having air ducts cleaned will make it easier for people to work easier and avoid aggravating their symptoms." The company has experience cleaning air ducts in Canada, and recommends that consumers not try to do it themselves. The company recently noted in a press statement, "To clean an air duct, one must be properly equipped. Pro Ace Heating & Cooling Ltd. Burnaby uses advanced camera technology to visualize the cleaning process and show the difference before and after cleaning."
