Rust in air ducts is something that no one wants to hear that they are dealing with, but it is a very common condition that has an easy solution for treatment. Typically, if you have metal ductwork in a residential or commercial property over time, you are going to experience some rusting and pitting of the duct. There are two primary reasons you must address the issue:
-
It is not healthy to breathe in
-

Damaged, rusted ductwork can cause an environmental hazard to the property and can cause the duct to break apart. Rust also means that your heat and cooling is leeching out under your property or into dead space.
