FAQs
Why is professional air-duct cleaning important for homes and businesses in Mulberry?
Mulberry’s humid subtropical climate encourages mold, mildew, and dust-mite growth inside ductwork. When the HVAC system runs, these contaminants circulate through your building, aggravating allergies, causing musty odors, and reducing system efficiency. Professional duct cleaning removes biological growth, accumulated dust, pet dander, and construction debris, restoring healthy airflow, improving indoor air quality (IAQ), and helping your heating and cooling equipment operate at peak performance.
How often should I schedule duct cleaning for my Mulberry property?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends a thorough cleaning every 3–5 years. However, Mulberry homeowners may need more frequent service—every 2–3 years—if they have pets that shed, family members with allergies or asthma, recent remodeling work, or notice visible dust blowing from vents. Commercial facilities such as restaurants, medical offices, or light-industrial buildings typically follow an annual or bi-annual schedule due to higher occupancy and stricter IAQ requirements.
What are the signs that my air ducts need to be cleaned?
Common indicators include: (1) visible dust puffs or black streaks around supply registers, (2) musty or stale odors when the HVAC system starts, (3) inconsistent airflow or hot/cold spots, (4) an unexplained increase in allergy or respiratory symptoms among occupants, (5) recent water intrusion or HVAC condensate leaks, and (6) noticeably higher energy bills even though thermostat settings haven’t changed. If you observe any of these, a duct inspection and cleaning are recommended.
What does your duct cleaning service include?
Our NADCA-certified technicians start with a camera inspection to document the duct’s interior condition. We then seal each register, attach a high-capacity negative-air machine to create powerful suction, and use rotary brushes and compressed-air whips to dislodge debris. After vacuuming, we sanitize the ductwork with an EPA-registered antimicrobial treatment that is safe for people and pets. Finally, we clean the blower, evaporator coil, and plenum, replace the air filter, and provide before-and-after photos so you can see the results.
Will duct cleaning lower my energy bills and improve indoor air quality?
Yes. A one-sixteenth-inch layer of dust on HVAC coils can reduce system efficiency by up to 25 %. By removing debris, airflow is restored and your furnace or air conditioner doesn’t have to work as hard, which can translate into measurable energy savings. Cleaner ducts also mean fewer airborne particulates, leading to healthier IAQ, reduced allergy triggers, and less dust settling on furniture and electronics.
How long does duct cleaning take, and do I need to leave my home or business?
An average single-family home in Mulberry takes 2–4 hours to clean, depending on duct length, number of registers, and level of contamination. Larger homes or commercial properties can take a full day or be scheduled after hours. You don’t need to vacate; the process is sealed and negative-pressure controlled, so there’s no mess or dust released into occupied areas. Our technicians wear boot covers, lay protective floor runners, and clean up thoroughly before leaving.
