Durham's proximity to Duke Forest means residential neighborhoods are surrounded by hardwoods and pines that produce some of the highest pollen counts in the Triangle. Combined with Durham's older housing stock, ductwork contamination is a significant concern for local homeowners.
Durham's mix of older homes near Duke University and newer developments throughout the city creates varied ductwork challenges. Older systems accumulate decades of contaminants while newer homes near Duke Forest face intense tree pollen from hardwoods and pines.
According to the EPA, indoor air can be 2–5 times more polluted than outdoor air — and dirty ductwork is a primary reason. Dust mites, mold spores, pet dander, pollen, and bacteria accumulate in ductwork and recirculate through your home every time your HVAC system runs.
