FAQs
Why should I have my air ducts cleaned by Cleaner Air Heating & Air Conditioning in Clairfield?
Over time, dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and even construction debris accumulate inside ductwork. When your HVAC system cycles on, these pollutants are circulated through every room you heat or cool. A professional cleaning removes the buildup, so you breathe cleaner air, experience fewer allergy and asthma flare-ups, and protect your equipment from premature wear. As a locally owned Clairfield company, we follow National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) standards and understand the unique humidity and pollen levels typical of Campbell County, giving you service tailored to our region’s indoor-air challenges.
How often should ductwork be cleaned for homes and businesses in Clairfield?
The EPA and NADCA recommend a thorough duct cleaning every 3–5 years for most properties. However, you may need more frequent service if you have pets that shed, smokers in the home, recent remodeling projects, family members with respiratory conditions, or live near one of Clairfield’s coal-haul routes where extra dust can infiltrate your home. We offer free inspections so you’ll know exactly when a cleaning is warranted rather than relying on a calendar date alone.
What signs indicate my ducts need professional cleaning?
Common red flags include visible dust puffing from supply registers, dark lines or “ghosting” around vents, a persistent musty or burnt-dust odor, unexplained spikes in energy bills, uneven airflow from room to room, and worsening allergy or sinus symptoms when the HVAC system runs. If you see insect shells, rodent droppings, or mold growth inside the duct, schedule service immediately to prevent health risks.
What does your duct-cleaning process involve and is it safe for my HVAC system?
Our NADCA-certified technicians start with a camera inspection to document the condition of each trunk line and branch. We then isolate the system, protect flooring and furnishings, and connect a powerful HEPA-filtered negative-air machine that draws contaminants outside your home. While the vacuum creates suction, rotary brushes and compressed-air whips dislodge debris from every surface. Afterward, we treat duct interiors with an EPA-approved antimicrobial fog (optional) to inhibit future microbial growth. The process is non-invasive, leaves zero chemical residue, and is completely safe for metal and flexible ductwork as well as sensitive ECM blower motors.
Will duct cleaning lower my utility bills or improve indoor air quality?
Yes to both. Removing layers of dust and lint from the interior walls of ductwork and HVAC components reduces airflow resistance, allowing your blower to run at its designed static pressure. Studies show homeowners can see 5–15 % energy savings after a comprehensive cleaning. On the air-quality side, eliminating bio-contaminants and particulate matter significantly decreases circulating allergens, which is why many clients notice less dust on furniture and easier breathing almost immediately.
How long does a typical duct-cleaning appointment take and do I need to leave the property?
Most single-family homes in the Clairfield area can be completed in 2–4 hours; larger homes or commercial buildings may take half a day or longer. You are welcome to stay on site—we only ask that pets and small children be kept clear of work areas for safety. Our crew will need access to every supply and return grille, the HVAC equipment, and a standard 120-V outlet. We finish by reinstalling registers, wiping down work areas, and reviewing before-and-after photos with you for total peace of mind.
