3 Reasons Your Home Is Dusty All The Time

We get many calls at Green ID because our customers notice constant dust in their homes, dust on their countertops, dressers,  window sills and dust streaks around the HVAC registers.  I've heard many times from homeowners that they have neighbors with the same house layout but they have much more dust than anyone else on the block. Dust can be from many reasons that vary with each home. 

Some reasons we found during our energy audits for excessive dust in homes are below.

• Leaky ductwork sucking attic dust into the house
• Air leaks to the attic and outside
• Leaky canned lights
  
• Leaks around electrical outlets, plumbing penetrations and attic penetrations
  
• Leaky windows (not as much as your think in Phoenix!)
• Dirty air filters
• Dryer vent not hooked up completely (remodeled lately)
• Animals
