FAQs

Why should I have my air ducts professionally cleaned in Jellico?

Over time, dust, pollen, pet dander, and even mold spores build up inside your ductwork. Jellico’s humid summers and chilly winters mean your HVAC system runs most of the year, constantly circulating these contaminants throughout your home. Professional duct cleaning removes this buildup, which can help reduce allergy symptoms, improve overall indoor air quality, and allow your heating and cooling equipment to operate more efficiently.

How often do experts recommend duct cleaning for homes and businesses in Jellico?

For most properties in Jellico, we recommend a thorough duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, you may need service sooner if you’ve completed a renovation, have multiple pets, notice excessive dust on vents, or experience lingering musty odors. Commercial buildings, medical facilities, and properties with high occupant turnover may benefit from annual inspections and more frequent cleanings.

What are the warning signs that my ducts need cleaning?

Common indicators include visible dust buildup on supply and return registers, unexplained spikes in utility bills, persistent odors when your HVAC system runs, rattling or whistling noises in the ductwork, and worsening allergy or respiratory symptoms among occupants. If you see black spots or discoloration around vents, that can signal mold or bacterial growth, which requires immediate attention.

What steps are involved in your professional duct-cleaning process?

1) Inspection: We begin with a camera-assisted inspection to locate blockages, debris, or microbial growth. 2) Preparation: We protect flooring and furnishings, then place the system under negative pressure with a high-powered HEPA vacuum. 3) Agitation & Extraction: Rotary brushes and compressed-air whips dislodge contaminants, which are pulled into sealed filtration units. 4) Sanitizing (optional): EPA-registered disinfectants are fogged to neutralize mold, bacteria, and odors. 5) Final verification: We provide before-and-after images and confirm airflow improvements before restoring service.

Can duct cleaning lower my energy bills or extend the life of my HVAC system?

Yes. Dust and debris inside ducts restrict airflow, forcing your furnace, heat pump, or air conditioner to work harder to maintain set temperatures. A professionally cleaned duct system can improve airflow by up to 30 %, reducing strain on blowers and compressors. Customers often see 5–15 % savings on their utility bills and fewer unexpected HVAC breakdowns, helping the equipment last longer.

Is duct cleaning safe, and will it create a mess in my home?

When performed by certified technicians using negative-pressure containment and HEPA-filtered vacuums, duct cleaning is completely safe for your HVAC system and indoor air. We seal every vent before agitation begins and use protective coverings to keep your home spotless. Any antimicrobial treatments are EPA-approved for residential use, leaving no harmful residues. After we’re finished, you’ll notice cleaner air and zero mess.
