FAQs

Why is professional duct cleaning important for my Jellico home?

Jellico’s humid summers and cool, dusty winters allow pollen, mold spores, and coal-dust residue to collect inside the ductwork. When your HVAC system cycles on, it can circulate these contaminants through every room. Professional duct cleaning removes the built-up debris, helping to protect your family from allergies and respiratory irritation, extend the life of your equipment, and ensure the air you breathe is as clean as possible.

How often should my air ducts be cleaned?

Most national standards recommend duct cleaning every 3–5 years, but Jellico’s unique mix of mountain pollen, humidity, and occasional mining dust can shorten that interval. Homes with pets, smokers, recent renovations, or family members with asthma should consider cleaning every 2–3 years. We offer free inspections to determine whether your system needs immediate attention or can wait.

What signs tell me I need duct cleaning or additional indoor-air-quality services?

Common red flags include visible dust puffs from supply registers, a musty or burnt smell when the furnace or AC starts, uneven airflow, higher-than-normal utility bills, and persistent allergy or sinus symptoms indoors. If you’ve noticed rodents or insects in the attic or crawlspace, or if your filters clog faster than usual, schedule a duct evaluation right away.

What does your duct cleaning process involve, and how long does it take?

Our certified technicians arrive with negative-pressure vacuum trucks and HEPA-filtered agitators. We seal each register, create a controlled vacuum inside the duct system, and use rotary brushes to dislodge debris without damaging the lining. Afterward we sanitize with an EPA-approved, fragrance-free antimicrobial. A typical three-bedroom home in Jellico takes 3–4 hours; larger homes or systems with severe buildup may require a full day.

Will duct cleaning lower my energy bills and improve HVAC efficiency?

Yes. Dust and debris restrict airflow, forcing your blower motor and heat exchanger to work harder. According to the EPA, clean ducts combined with a new filter can improve system efficiency by up to 20 %. Better airflow also means rooms reach target temperatures faster, so your furnace or air conditioner cycles off sooner—reducing wear and monthly utility costs.

Are the cleaning products and equipment you use safe for my family and pets?

Absolutely. All chemicals are EPA-registered, low-VOC, and safe for use in occupied homes, including those with children, elderly residents, or pets. Our HEPA-sealed vacuums prevent particulate escape, and we perform a final air-quality check before leaving. If you prefer 100 % chemical-free cleaning, we can accommodate that request with steam and mechanical agitation only.
