FAQs
What is HVAC duct cleaning and why is it important for my home in Evensville?
HVAC duct cleaning is the removal of dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and other contaminants that accumulate inside the supply and return ductwork of your heating and air-conditioning system. In Evensville’s humid, pollen-heavy climate, these contaminants can circulate throughout your home each time the system runs, reducing indoor air quality, aggravating allergies, and forcing your equipment to work harder. A thorough cleaning restores unrestricted airflow, protects sensitive HVAC components, and helps maintain a healthier living environment.
How often should I have my air ducts cleaned in Evensville’s climate?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends professional cleaning every 3–5 years. However, Evensville’s warm, humid summers and plentiful spring pollen can justify shorter intervals—about every 2–3 years—especially if you own pets, have household members with allergies, recently completed a renovation, or notice visible dust around vents. Annual HVAC inspections will help confirm when cleaning is truly needed.
How can clean ducts improve the efficiency of my heating and cooling system?
When ducts are coated with debris, the blower must push air through a narrower passage, increasing static pressure and reducing airflow. Your furnace or air conditioner compensates by running longer cycles, which drives up energy consumption and operating costs. A professional duct cleaning removes that buildup, restoring proper airflow, allowing the system to reach the set temperature faster, and potentially lowering utility bills by 10–20%. It also reduces wear on motors and compressors, extending equipment life.
What are the warning signs that my air ducts need professional cleaning?
Common indicators include: persistent dust on furniture even after cleaning; musty or moldy odors when the HVAC system runs; uneven airflow or rooms that never seem to reach the desired temperature; visible dust plumes or black streaks around supply registers; recent water damage or rodent/insect activity in the attic or crawl space; and a spike in allergy or respiratory symptoms indoors. If you see or experience any of these, schedule an inspection.
What does your duct cleaning service in Evensville include and how long does it take?
Our NADCA-certified technicians begin with a video-camera inspection to document duct condition. We then seal each vent, connect a truck-mounted negative-air machine, and use rotary brushes and compressed-air whips to dislodge debris. All contaminants are captured in a HEPA-filtered vacuum outside your home. We finish by sanitizing the ductwork with a plant-based, EPA-registered disinfectant and checking system operation. A typical single-family home in Evensville takes 2–4 hours, and you can remain in the house the entire time.
Is duct cleaning safe, and will it affect my indoor air quality or HVAC warranty?
Yes. We use soft-bristle brushes and industry-approved agitation tools that are safe for sheet-metal, flex, and fiberglass duct systems. Our HEPA-filtered vacuums prevent loosened particles from re-entering your living space, and our optional antimicrobial treatment is non-toxic and low-VOC. Following NADCA guidelines ensures your HVAC manufacturer’s warranty remains intact. Customers typically notice improved air quality and less dust within days of service.
