Advanced Clean Air - Your Asthma Friendly Air-Con Cleaning Company!

June 27, 2019
Asthma is a disease that not many people unaffected give a second thought to, but 1 in 9 Australians are affected by asthma. That is 2.5 million people here in Australia that suffer from asthma. Advanced Clean Air is Darwin and Palmerston’s asthma friendly air conditioner cleaning company.
  • So, What is Asthma?

    Asthma is a disease of the airways and the small tubes which carry air in and out of our lungs. When sufferers are exposed to certain asthma triggers e.g. Cold air, exercise and pollen they become inflamed and cause the airway muscles to tighten and produce mucus. This makes the airways narrow and difficult for you to breath. Common asthma symptoms include:

    • Shortness of breath
    • Wheezing
    • Coughing
    • A feeling of tightness in the chest.

    While there is no cure for asthma yet it is a manageable health condition with the right management and education.

  • Asthma Action Plan

    Everyone who suffers from asthma should have a written asthma plan. However only 20% of people aged 15 and over have one. An asthma action plan is something every asthma sufferer should develop with a healthcare professional. It should include your asthma medicine and how you may need to increase or decrease this depending on your asthma symptoms. This is important to have in writing so if something does happen to an asthma sufferer the people around them will know exactly what needs to be done.


    Advanced Clean Air has a range of action plans in place and every one of our technicians is trained as to what to do in such a situation. With both asthma kits and first aid kits in every van our technicians will be on hand to help.


     If you or someone you know suffers from Asthma and don't have an action plan we recommend getting in contact with the Asthma Foundation.

  • Prevention

    There are certain things that can increase the chance of a child developing asthma. One of the most common cause of childhood asthma is exposure to environmental allergens. These are easily reduced around your home with regular dusting and cleaning. Unfortunately, you may not be able to give the most active agent in this process a proper clean, which is your air conditioner. Dust and allergens build up in your air conditioner where you cannot see them and are then circulated around your home for everyone to breathe in every time the unit is on. These will remain and increase in your air conditioner until the unit is professionally cleaned. You cannot see this and hence will not be able to clean it to the level required to eliminate asthma contributors.


    Advanced Clean Air can help. Our clean will get rid of all the nasty build up in your air conditioner and ensure the air you are breathing is clean and fresh. While these measures may not completely prevent asthma developing it will definitely decrease the symptoms.

Mouldy Air Conditioning Vent in Darwin
By Jason Gebert April 15, 2020
The first sign many people notice is a musty, mouldy odour. If you do a thorough clean of your office or commercial space and the smell is still there, it’s time to check your vents. Getting your Air Conditioning Contractor to remove the covers and take a quick look inside may confirm the issue, especially if you see mould or notice a stronger smell in that area. If the scent is stronger, but you can’t see the mould, then the growth is possibly further in the ducts. Another sign of a mould issue is the sudden onset of allergy symptoms. If you or a co-worker notices burning eyes, scratchy throat, or a runny nose that gets better when you leave the office, there could be an issue. Arranging for your HVAC technician to check your filters should be the first step. If it needs to be changed they can install a new one. If the symptoms continue they can do a quick check of your vents and a visual check of your ducts. Inspecting your duct work can also provide clues to a possible mould problem. An Air Systems Cleaning Specialist (ASCS) can check for signs of moisture build-up, such as condensation, dark spots, or actual leaks. Mould needs water to grow, so any signs of condensation or leaking could indicate a growth hot spot. Duct cleaning and coating is a specialised job and as such the majority of HVAC companies sub-contract duct cleaning and coating out to companies like ours. At Advanced Air we have our Air Systems Cleaning Specialist on staff ready to undertake any duct inspection, cleaning or coating project you may have.
