What’s Hiding in Your Air Ducts This Summer

When summer rolls in, most of us are focused on BBQs, beach days, and keeping cool. But here’s a question many Long Island homeowners and business owners never think to ask:

What’s hiding inside your air ducts right now?

If you haven’t had them cleaned in a while, the answer might make you cringe—and it could explain why your allergies suddenly seem worse, or why the air just doesn’t feel fresh inside your home or business.

The Silent Problem Lurking in Your Vents

You can’t see it. You can’t smell it. But every time your HVAC kicks on, you’re likely circulating more than just cool air.

During the warmer months, air ducts can become a hiding place for:

• Dust and pollen tracked in from open windows and doors
• Mold spores thriving in humid ductwork
• Pet dander and hair floating unseen through the vents
• Dead insects or rodent droppings from unnoticed infestations
• Bacteria and allergens recirculating with every cycle of your AC

And if you’re running your air conditioner nonstop (let’s be honest—on Long Island, who isn’t?), those irritants are being pushed into every corner of your space all summer long.

"I Thought My House Was Clean… Until I Had the Ducts Inspected."

We hear this from homeowners all the time. You vacuum, dust, and mop—but the air still feels heavy, or your allergies won’t let up. For businesses, it’s even worse. Poor air quality can affect your staff, customers, and your overall image.

At K.O.S. Cleaning, we’ve been helping Long Islanders breathe easier since 2006. Our professional air duct cleaning service targets what you can’t reach—deep inside the ductwork—using high-powered equipment to remove buildup that’s often years old.
