FAQs
Why is regular duct cleaning important for my HVAC system in Crossville’s climate?
Crossville sits on the Cumberland Plateau, where pollen, dust from unpaved roads, and year-round humidity can all accumulate inside your ductwork. When these contaminants build up, they restrict airflow, force your heating and cooling equipment to work harder, and continually recirculate allergens through the home. A professional cleaning removes the debris, helping your system run more efficiently, extending equipment life, and reducing allergy and asthma triggers for your family.
How often should I have my air ducts cleaned?
For most homes in Crossville we recommend a full duct cleaning every 3–5 years. You may need service sooner if you have pets that shed, smokers in the household, recent remodeling work, or if anyone in the home suffers from respiratory issues. Annual HVAC maintenance visits will let our technicians inspect the ductwork and advise you if an earlier cleaning is advisable.
What signs indicate my ducts need professional cleaning?
Common warning signs include: visible dust “puffs” coming from supply registers when the system turns on, musty or moldy odors that linger, rooms that seem harder to heat or cool, a recent spike in utility bills, or finding excessive dust on furniture only a day or two after cleaning. If you notice any of these symptoms, scheduling an inspection is the best next step.
Will duct cleaning really improve my indoor air quality and energy efficiency?
Yes. A NADCA-certified duct cleaning can remove 15–40 pounds of dust, dander, and debris from an average Crossville home. Cleaner ducts mean fewer airborne particles circulating through your living space and settling on surfaces. With less resistance in the ductwork, your blower motor doesn’t have to run as long, which can translate to energy savings of up to 20 % and reduced wear on the system’s components.
What does your duct cleaning process involve and how long does it take?
1) We begin with a camera inspection to document the condition of the ducts. 2) High-efficiency HEPA vacuums place the entire system under negative pressure so contaminants are captured, not released into the home. 3) Rotating brush and air-whip tools dislodge stubborn buildup on metal or flex ducts. 4) We clean the supply and return plenums, registers, and grilles. 5) If requested, we apply an EPA-approved antimicrobial treatment. For a typical 2,000-sq-ft house the process takes 2–4 hours, and you’ll receive before-and-after photos when we’re done.
Is duct cleaning messy and will I need to leave my home during the service?
Not at all. Our equipment is fully sealed, and the negative-pressure vacuum ensures dust is pulled into our containment unit rather than escaping into your living space. We cover floors and furniture in high-traffic areas, and each register is sealed while work is performed on other sections of the system. You can remain in the home the entire time; the noise level is similar to that of a household vacuum cleaner.
