Dust in and of itself is not an allergen according to the Wexner Medical Center at Ohio State University. However, dust mites that feed on dead skin are commonly found in pillows and mattresses can be part of the debris found in residential air ducts by professional services performing air duct cleaning.
Proponents for air duct cleaning argue that allergies in the young and elderly are in particular increased when air ducts are not cleaned with regular consistency.
The US Department of Energy is noted to assert that over 30 percent of HVAC efficiency is lost when systems are not properly maintained. This results in clogged filters, uneven temperatures throughout a home and higher cost to consumers because of the added work put on HVAC systems.
