Spring Cleaning Checklist: Go Beyond the Surface for a Healthier Home

March 21, 2025

Many of us think of spring cleaning as decluttering closets, dusting shelves and cleaning our windows. A truly effective spring cleaning should go deeper, tackling the hidden areas of your home that can impact your health and safety. At Steamatic of CT, we specialize in professional cleaning and restoration services that can help you clean beyond the surface this spring season.


1. HVAC & Mini Split Cleaning: Breathe Easier This Spring:


Your HVAC system and mini splits work hard all year to keep your home a comfortable temperature, but without proper maintenance, they can circulate dust, allergens, and even mold. Does your family experience spring allergies? There is a link between indoor air quality and the severity of your allergy symptoms. Steamatic of CT offers expert HVAC and mini split cleaning services designed to remove harmful debris, improve airflow, and help you breathe cleaner air. Our comprehensive 17-step process not only boosts system performance of your unit, but also helps prevent costly breakdowns and will improve the overall health of your home’s air quality.


2. Dryer Vent Cleaning: A Small Detail That Can Prevent Big Problems:


Dryer vents are often overlooked, but deep rooted lint buildup can not only reduce your dryers efficiency, it can be a serious fire hazard. While DIY kits exist, a professional cleaning ensures the job is done thoroughly and safely. Steamatic of CT uses specialized equipment to fully clear your dryer vent system, helping your unit run effectively while reducing the risk of fire. 


3. Water Damage & Mold: Winter’s Lingering Impact:


Melting snow and spring rain can cause or add to water damage caused by ice dams and prolonged snow build up. Even small leaks or water spots can lead to mold growth and structural issues if not addressed right away. Steamatic of CT provides professional water damage restoration and mold remediation services to stop problems before they cause severe damage to your home.

The Importance of Maintaining Your Mini Split AC Units

May 15, 2024
Mini split and built-in AC wall units have become increasingly popular due to their efficiency and space-saving design. Maintaining these systems is crucial to prevent mold growth and ensure they continue to operate both safely and effectively. Here's a guide to keeping your unit in safe, working condition. Ongoing Maintenance Qualified technicians can perform comprehensive cleaning and ongoing maintenance, ensuring that your mini split AC not only cools effectively but also supports optimal indoor air quality. To protect the longevity and efficiency of your unit, we recommend scheduling seasonal inspections and servicing by experienced professionals.

Mold thrives in the warm, damp environments that can occur within these units, posing health risks and even leading to eventual structural damage in your home. Be vigilant and regularly check for any signs of mold, such as: Moisture accumulation near the unit A stale or "cheesy" odor coming from your unit Visible black splotches on or inside the air handler  Professional Assistance If you spot mold in or around your unit, you should take immediate action. At Steamatic of CT we have over 40 years of expertise and can efficiently and effectively eliminate mold and mold spores from your mini split.
