Don't Neglect Your Bathroom Exhaust Fan Cleaning

Take a guess on when your last bathroom exhaust fan cleaning was performed. Your likely answer is ‘I have no idea!’ And know this; you are not alone! For many business or commercial building owners alike, bathroom exhaust fan cleaning may not even be something you’ve ever considered before. And many never think about it until their exhaust fan stops working completely. But the experts at Metro Cleaning Service is here to let you know why bathroom exhaust fan cleaning for your Twin Cities business is so very important.

As experts in commercial cleaning, we’ve taken note of how essential it can be to the appearance of any commercial business. So, here are just a few of the reasons we think bathroom exhaust fan cleaning should be included in your regular building maintenance.

Money-Saving Possibilities

With regular bathroom exhaust fan cleaning, it’ possible to increase the life span of your bathroom fan and thus, saving you money in the long run.

A Reputation for Cleanliness

The bathroom at your commercial business may be one of the most frequently used rooms in your building. Bathroom exhaust fan cleaning can offer a more aesthetically pleasing bathroom experience and in turn, a more positive impression of your business overall. When all the dirt and dust bunnies are removed from your bathroom exhaust fan, your business’ bathroom will look more attractive to not only customers but employees and other visitors as well.

Help Indoor Air Quality

Bathrooms can be smelly places sometimes. A bathroom exhaust fan that is in good condition can eliminate the smells that are often associated with bathrooms. So, with regular exhaust fan cleaning, you may notice an improvement in your business’ indoor air quality.

Moisture Removal

Moisture can easily build up in your bathroom and cause mold and mildew. This can not only create a breathing hazard, but it doesn’t look very good to customers if they see black mold on your bathroom’s walls, floor or ceiling.

A well-functioning bathroom exhaust fan pulls moisture out of the air, eliminating some of this potential for mold while also benefiting the paint, trim and cabinetry in the bathroom.

These are just a few of the reasons you should consider contacting Metro Cleaning Service about bathroom exhaust fan cleaning.

An Industrial Cleaning for Your Heating System

Winter means you want to make absolutely sure that the heating system on your commercial property is fully operational. Do not shut the doors on your business just because your heat may be lacking or not emerging at all. One of our service teams in industrial cleaning near Eden Prairie will gladly come out to your business and make sure your furnace is not soiled by dirt and debris that is preventing it from running properly. One of the best ways to keep it up and running is by making sure it is clean and ready to go.

Your clean furnace will work better overall than will a dirty sort. The same applies to the filter. An industrial cleaning of your heating system—especially if established on an annual basis—will have it more likely to work as it should than will simply using it a last time early in the year and just turning it on in the latter portion of the year after being dormant.

Industrial cleaning commences by cleaning the air-handling unit and the motor itself. We will eye up the furnace’s filter to make sure it is clean. If the filter is in a bad way, we can replace it for you.  We will also show you how to do this yourself so that it can become something you can check on and carry out in the future. The frequency with which you have to change the filter will depend on the specific type of furnace you have as well as the environment it operates in. Another thing for you to look into is the manufacturer’s recommendation to see how often the filter should be changed.

In addition to our furnace cleaning services, you will also get the added benefit of our duct cleaning services (as part of that package). The ducts should be cleaned regularly, which we will be only too happy to take care of for you. The end result of duct cleaning is that you will likely see an improvement in the way that your furnace runs, as well as overall improvements in indoor air quality. Finally, take a look at the area around your furnace. Remove any flammable items or debris nearby. A clean furnace is a furnace that works well.

Your commercial property requires regular cleaning of any myriad types. Whether you need dusting, vacuuming and/or bathroom cleaning done, our industrial cleaning services can be catered to your needs.

Air Duct Cleanings Clear the Air

Is your HVAC system sluggish these days? Consider scheduling an air duct cleaning for your Twin Cities home or business. An air duct cleaning as conducted by one of our HVAC repair technicians will effectively remove debris, dirt and dust from your ductwork. Call on Metro Cleaning Services will have those dirty ducts fully functional and pumping out clean air in no time! You can well end up having the greatest efficiency that you have ever seen from you HVAC system!

Weigh these benefits of an air duct cleaning for your home or business:

·         Energy Efficiency: A good air duct cleaning can be a major contributor to reducing your monthly energy bills, as well as a provider of enhanced functionality of your HVAC system. If your heating and cooling system has become clogged by dirt, dust, or other contaminants, the performance of your HVAC system is likely not up to standard. In fact, duct cleaning may be able to boost the efficiency of your system by as much as 25 percent. This will translate to energy savings on a monthly basis.

·         Air Quality: danger lurks inside of your home or business. Outdoor pollution is commonly spoken on and widely established—indoor pollution, from what your air ducts kick out—should be a real concern for homeowners. Ductwork sends cooled or heated air out of vents and into the open spaces of your home. Debris, dirt and dust are pumped out with what is supposed to be clean air. Regular air duct cleaning will take all of this away, making your overall air quality concerns within your house a past worry.

·         Allergy Symptoms: Should you or a family member suffer allergies, your ductwork should be a major focus in warding them off. Consider an air duct cleaning to rid your home of most of the common indoor allergen types, like dust, pet dander and (even) mold. Burdens like these get lodged in your home’s ductwork. An air duct cleaning can remove these particles from your indoor air. As a result, allergy symptoms for you and yours may just become a thing of the past when inside of your home.

Metro Cleaning Services provides air duct cleaning in the Twin Cities area. Contact us or give us a call. We would be happy to provide you with a Free Estimate on any of our service types.

How to Decrease Build-Up in Your Dryer Vents

Dryer vent cleaning is a necessity, no matter if your dryer is at your home or in a commercial building. While it is recommended you get professional dryer vent cleaning done on an annual basis, there are a few steps you can take to ensure you don’t need it done more often than that. Here are a few tips on dryer vent cleaning from the Minneapolis cleaning experts at Metro Cleaning Service.

While dryer sheets and fabric softener are both popular ways to soften your clothing and make them smell fresh, be sure to use both sparingly. Dryer sheets can cause more lint to build up in your dryer’s lint filter. Fabric softener can add even more flammable chemicals to your clothing, and that can cause them to ignite and burn even faster if there is a dryer fire.

When you are using your dryer, try not to run it for any longer than 30 to 40 minutes per load. If you have to run your dryer for longer than 40 minutes, that is usually a good indication that you need to look into professional dryer vent cleaning services like ours. Running your dryer for 30 to 40 minutes at a time gives the air in the machine a better chance of properly circulating through the machine, which could result in less lint build-up in the filter and in the dryer vent.

If you are drying heavier fabrics, like blankets or comforters, consider air drying them if that is possible. These types of materials are better sources of lint than lighter fabrics, so keep them out of your dryer whenever possible. Air drying might take longer than drying through your dryer, but this could save you time, money and hassle in the long run.

After each time you use your dryer, clean out the lint trap. This usually only takes a few seconds and making sure your dryer’s lint trap is clean not only helps decrease the frequency of dryer vent cleaning. It could also help increase the life span of your dryer.

Finally, make sure your dryer vents directly outside. It should never vent into an attic, chimney or crawlspace. It should also have the proper cap on the part that leads outside in order to prevent birds, squirrels and other animals from nesting in there.
