FAQs
Why is professional duct cleaning important for my HVAC system in Crab Orchard?
Over time, dust, pollen, pet dander, and even mold spores can accumulate inside your heating and cooling ductwork. In Crab Orchard’s humid climate, these contaminants can circulate every time the system runs, aggravating allergies and reducing system efficiency. Professional duct cleaning removes this buildup, which helps protect your family’s respiratory health, lowers strain on HVAC components, and can even extend equipment life.
How often should I schedule duct cleaning for my home or business?
Most industry guidelines recommend a full duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, you may need the service sooner if you’ve recently completed renovations, installed a new HVAC system, experienced water damage, have smokers or shedding pets in the home, or notice visible dust blowing from vents. Our Crab Orchard technicians can inspect your ducts and suggest an appropriate maintenance schedule.
What are the most common signs my air ducts need cleaning?
Warning signals include musty or dusty odors when the system starts, visible dust or debris around supply registers, unexplained allergy or asthma flare-ups, frequent filter clogging, inconsistent airflow room-to-room, and recent rodent or insect issues. If you spot any of these indicators, call our team for a no-obligation inspection.
What does your duct-cleaning process involve?
We begin with a camera inspection to assess duct condition. After sealing registers, our technicians connect a high-powered, negative-air vacuum to create suction. We then insert rotating brushes and compressed-air whips to dislodge debris, which is pulled into a HEPA-filtered containment unit. Finally, we sanitize the ducts with an EPA-approved antimicrobial treatment and provide before-and-after photos so you can see the difference.
Can duct cleaning lower my energy bills or improve indoor air quality?
Yes. Clean ducts allow conditioned air to flow freely, reducing the workload on your blower motor and potentially improving system efficiency by up to 20 %. Removing allergen-laden dust and microbial growth also helps your HVAC filter capture fewer particles, leading to noticeably cleaner indoor air and less frequent filter changes.
How long will the service take, and do I need to do anything beforehand?
A typical single-family home in Crab Orchard takes 2–4 hours to clean, while larger homes or commercial spaces may require a full day. Please clear a path to supply and return vents and move fragile items away from work areas. Our crew will protect floors and furniture with drop cloths and re-install all vent covers when finished.
