FAQs
How often should I have my air ducts cleaned in Rockford?
For most homes and small businesses in Rockford, we recommend professional duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, homes with pets, smokers, recent remodeling projects, or allergy sufferers may benefit from more frequent cleanings—about every 2–3 years. Our technicians can inspect your system and suggest a schedule tailored to your indoor air quality needs.
What are the signs that my HVAC ducts need cleaning?
Common indicators include visible dust buildup around vents, musty or unpleasant odors when the HVAC system runs, increased allergy or asthma symptoms, uneven airflow from room to room, and higher-than-usual energy bills. If you notice any of these issues, a thorough duct inspection and cleaning can restore proper airflow and improve indoor air quality.
Will duct cleaning reduce my energy bills?
Yes, clean ducts allow your furnace and air conditioner to circulate air more efficiently, reducing strain on the system and lowering energy consumption. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, even minor airflow obstructions can decrease HVAC efficiency by up to 15%. After a professional cleaning, many Rockford customers notice quicker temperature control and utility savings.
Is your duct cleaning process safe for my HVAC equipment and my family?
Absolutely. We follow National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) standards and use HEPA-filtered negative-air machines to capture dust, debris, and contaminants. All brushes and agitation tools are specifically designed for metal and flexible ductwork, preventing damage to the lining. We also use eco-friendly sanitizing agents that are safe for children, pets, and people with respiratory sensitivities.
How long does a typical duct cleaning appointment take?
A standard residential duct cleaning in Rockford averages 2–4 hours, depending on the home’s size, number of vents, and accessibility of the HVAC system. Larger homes or systems with heavy contamination may take longer. We provide a time estimate after our initial inspection so you can plan your day accordingly.
What should I do to prepare for my duct cleaning service?
Please make sure all vents and registers are accessible by moving furniture or personal items a few feet away. Secure pets in a separate room for their safety and ours. If you have special concerns—such as fragile items near vents—let our technician know when we arrive. We’ll handle the rest, including protective coverings for floors and thorough cleanup after the job is done.
