During the long winter months, things can get a little stuffy in your home. You’ll be running the heat, keeping the windows closed, and breathing the same air as it cycles through your HVAC system over and over again. And whatever is in your ducts will simply cycle through over and over as well. What’s in there? And do you really want to breathe it?

Because ductwork can stay in position for many years—decades, even—it’s easy to forget about it. Generally, it’s behind your walls, or up in your attic, where you don’t have a clear view even of the outside of the ducts. And the inside is a total mystery!
