FAQs
How does professional duct cleaning improve my HVAC system’s efficiency?
Dust, pet dander, construction debris, and other contaminants collect on the inner walls of your ductwork. As the layer grows, airflow becomes restricted and your furnace or air-conditioner has to work harder to push conditioned air through the home. By removing that buildup, we restore full airflow, which lets the blower motor run at its intended speed, shortens heating and cooling cycles, and reduces wear on critical parts. Most customers in Rogersville notice more even temperatures, quicker comfort, and a 5–15 % drop in energy use after a thorough cleaning.
How often should my air ducts be cleaned in Rogersville?
For an average household, the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends a professional cleaning every 3–5 years. However, local factors can shorten that interval: high pollen counts in the Ozarks, gravel roads that raise dust, recent remodeling projects, the presence of pets, smokers, or allergy sufferers, and homes with older or poorly sealed ductwork. If any of these apply, consider scheduling an inspection every 2 years so we can advise whether an earlier cleaning is cost-effective.
Will duct cleaning really lower my energy bills?
Yes—when performed correctly. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that 25–40 % of the energy used for heating and cooling is wasted, much of it due to airflow restrictions and duct leaks. By clearing obstructions and identifying damaged sections during cleaning, we restore system efficiency. Customers typically see $100–$300 in annual savings on utility bills, which means the service often pays for itself within a season or two, especially when combined with a fresh filter and routine HVAC maintenance.
What signs tell me my ducts need cleaning or inspection?
• Visible dust puffs or debris coming from supply registers when the system turns on • Musty, smoky, or stale odors that persist after changing filters • Uneven temperatures or weak airflow in certain rooms • A sudden increase in allergy or asthma symptoms indoors • Dark buildup around vent covers or on ceiling tiles • Higher-than-normal electric or gas bills despite similar thermostat settings If you notice two or more of these issues, book a duct evaluation with our Rogersville team.
What is included in your Rogersville duct cleaning service?
1. Pre-inspection with a high-resolution duct camera to document debris and identify leaks or damage. 2. Sealing off supply and return registers to create the negative pressure needed for a full-system clean. 3. High-powered HEPA-filtered vacuum extraction combined with rotating brushes and compressed-air whips to loosen and remove contaminants. 4. Optional application of an EPA-approved sanitizing fog to neutralize mold spores and bacteria. 5. Post-clean camera verification so you can see the difference. 6. A written report with photos, efficiency recommendations, and any repair quotes if leaks or insulation issues are found.
Is duct cleaning safe for my HVAC system and indoor air quality?
Absolutely. We follow NADCA standards and use HEPA-sealed equipment that prevents loosened debris from re-entering your living space. All brushes are soft-tip and sized to match your duct diameter, eliminating the risk of scratching or disconnecting joints. Our technicians isolate sensitive components such as the evaporator coil and blower assembly to protect them during the process. For added peace of mind, we perform an air-quality test before and after cleaning so you can see measurable improvements in particulate levels.
