Debris left in air ducts after construction or remodeling projects can significantly impact the performance and efficiency of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, including furnaces and air conditioners.

Here’s a detailed explanation of how this occurs and why it’s crucial to address:

1. Reduced Airflow 

-  Obstruction : Construction debris, such as sawdust, plaster, pieces of drywall, and insulation materials, can obstruct air flow in ductwork. This results in the furnace or air conditioner working harder to circulate air through the vents.
