Blower & Coil Cleaning

While air ducts get much of the attention when it comes to indoor air quality, the true unsung hero – and often the dirtiest component – of your entire HVAC system is the air handler, specifically its evaporator coil and blower assembly. This is the very heart of your heating and cooling system, where air is conditioned, and unfortunately, where moisture naturally accumulates. This combination of constant airflow, temperature changes, and inherent humidity creates an ideal breeding ground for dust, dirt, debris, mold, mildew, bacteria, and other microbial contaminants to cling to the coil fins and fan blades.

As air passes over these highly contaminated surfaces, it picks up and recirculates these pollutants directly into your breathable indoor environment. This means that even if your ducts are clean, a dirty coil can continually pump airborne allergens, mold spores, and unpleasant odors throughout your home or business, severely compromising indoor air quality (IAQ). 

IAQ Genie's professional coil cleaning and disinfection service directly addresses this critical issue. We go beyond superficial cleaning, using specialized tools and EPA-approved disinfectants to meticulously remove the deep-seated grime, biological growth, and trapped debris from the evaporator coil and blower fan. This thorough cleaning not only eliminates the primary source of many airborne contaminants, leading to a dramatic improvement in IAQ and a noticeable reduction in allergens and odors, but it also restores your HVAC system's efficiency. A clean coil allows for better heat exchange and airflow, reducing the strain on your system, lowering energy consumption, and extending the lifespan of your entire unit. Investing in professional coil cleaning is investing in consistently cleaner air and a healthier, more efficient indoor environment. 

Clean ducts are obviously critical, but so often overlooked is the air handlers' blower wheel, which is a key component within your furnace or air handler. This fan-like part is responsible for moving all the conditioned air throughout your home's ductwork. Over time, especially in homes with dusty environments or infrequent filter changes, the blower wheel can become extremely dirty, accumulating a thick layer of dust, pet dander, and other particulate matter on its blades. This buildup isn't just unsightly; it significantly impacts your system's performance. The dirt acts like a heavy coating that can block the wheels impeller, reducing its ability to move air efficiently. This restriction of airflow forces your heating and cooling system to work harder, consume more energy, and ultimately leads to reduced comfort and higher utility bills. A dirty blower wheel can also contribute to system noise and even shorten the lifespan of your HVAC unit. 

At IAQ Genie, we recognize the essential role the blower wheel plays in your system's overall efficiency and your home's air quality. Our skilled technicians are equipped to perform a thorough cleaning of your blower wheel. This isn't a superficial wipe-down; we carefully access the blower assembly and use specialized tools and cleaning agents to safely remove even the most stubborn layers of accumulated grime from each blade. By restoring the blower wheel to its original, clean condition, we ensure optimal airflow, improve the system's balance, and drastically reduce the energy needed to distribute air throughout your home. This service helps to restore your HVAC system's intended performance, enhance your comfort, lower your energy costs, and extend the lifespan of your valuable equipment.
