Frequently Asked Questions About Air Duct Cleaning

Below are some frequenlty asked questions we commonly receive from our customers:

What are some benefits of getting my duct work cleaned professionally?

Having your air ducts cleaned may substantially improve the air health of your office or home. When the air ducts are cleaned of debris, you'll be able to notice:

  • A reduction in the frequency of your house cleaning
  • A reduction in allergy triggers
  • An improvement in indoor air quality
  • A decrease in energy bills
  • Even temperatures from one room to another
  • An increase in air flow

Are there health benefits that come with ductwork cleaning?

The answer is yes. Professionally deodorized and cleaned ductwork will decrease dust particles, bacteria, pollen, fungi, and mold. Those contaminants are notorious for triggering asthma, allergies, and other types of health issues. In decreasing the contaminants inside the ductwork, you're enabling the air that circulates all throughout the house to be cleaner, and thereby healthier.

Will I get lots of dust in my home during the process of duct cleaning?

The answer is no. Our team's vacuum trucks create negative air pressure all throughout the system, which removes all debris and dust right outside to their truck.

How often should I get my air ducts professionally cleaned?

According to professionals, it is recommended to get your ductwork cleaned professionally every 3 - 5 years. Someone might want to consider further cleanings under the following listed situations:

  • Buying an existing house
  • Before the occupancy of a newly constructed house (construction debris)
  • After house remodeling or renovations 
  • Smoke/water contamination to your house
  • Pet hair and dander 
  • Smokers in your home
  • Occupants who have asthma or allergies

How long is it going to take to clean the ductwork inside my house?

Depending on the ductwork layout and the size of your home, it varies. The average size house may take from 3 - 5 hours with a couple of trained techs.

What is an encapsulant?

Products used to seal the interior of ductwork. We don't recommend using such products except under specific circumstances, like with deteriorated fiberglass insulation.

When is the best time to consider getting my air ducts cleaned?

If you have renovated recently, have pets, or have mold, or someone who has asthma living in the house, it is likely time to think about getting your air ducts cleaned.

If there've been any indications of lead paint, asbestos abatement, pet dander, and dust in the house, you should have the ductwork checked, since these contaminants may be released all throughout the house.

The most typical contaminants that are found in the majority of air ducts include:

  • Residue from household products and chemicals  
  • Dust mites
  • Skin flakes
  • Viruses
  • Decaying organic matter
  • Fungi
  • Bacteria
  • Rodents or insects
  • Carpet fibers
  • Pollen
  • Tobacco smoke
  • Pet hair and dander
  • Mold

How Much Will Air Duct Cleaning Cost?

There are several factors tot take into consideration such as: how is many returns there are, how many supplies are used, the location of the furnace or HVAC, and the length of the air ducts throughout your house.


How Long Will the Air Duct Cleaning Take?

Air duct service takes anywhere from one hour to an entire day (or in the case of commercial HVAC system cleaning, more time is needed). Standard air duct cleanings could be 2 – 3 hours and could cover the main return, the HVAC unit, the room’s vents, as well as air ducts themselves. If your air ducts spread out on more than a single floor, they would require more time to be cleaned properly.


 How Frequently Should I Have My Air Ducts Cleaned?

Air ducts should be done every 10-15 years or so.  There are special circumstances that would require you to get your HVAC system cleaned more frequently, like a recent renovation, a fire/flood, mold, or if you are having severe allergies from pet dander and fur.


Why Should I Clean My Air Ducts?

There are many reasons you should get air ducts cleaned:

  • You want to
  • You experienced fire or water damage
  • You own a pet who sheds in abundance and/or has dander
  • You are an indoor cigarette smoker
  • You’re moving to a new house


How Can I Improve Indoor Air Quality?

There are several ways you can improve indoor air quality, which include cleaning and airing out your home, adding houseplants around the living area, replacing the furnace filter per manufacture suggestion; just to a name a few!
