Don’t let Your HVAC System Open the Door for Pests

Are pests getting inside your home?

Does an odor come out of your vents when your system is running?

Are you concerned about your indoor air quality?

It’s important to ensure that pests stay out of your air ducts and out of your home, as they can wreak havoc on your air conditioner’s health and your own. Gaps allow pests like stink bugs, silverfish, and rodents to find a home right in your air ducts.

How Do You Stay Protected?

  1. Seal ducts, vents and flues.
  2. Clean air ducts regularly.
  3. Clean out debris in your outdoor unit.
  4. Make sure your unit has been properly mounted on a raised slab.
  5. Cut grass and weeds away from your unit.


If you have a problem with pests infiltrating your HVAC system, you can set traps for them. However, if you continue to have a problem, you may need to call your local pest control company, and hire a heating and cooling company to ensure the air conditioner in your Ann Arbor home hasn’t been damaged. 

Pests can often chew air ducts, and leave nests and dander behind, creating a disgusting odor and potential health problems. It’s absolutely critical that you consult with a professional regarding the air conditioner in your Ann Arbor home to prevent future problems. Regular maintenance can help resolve issues and identify problem areas.
