FAQs
Why is regular duct cleaning important for homes and businesses in Strawberry Plains?
Our region’s humid summers and pollen-heavy springs allow dust, mold spores, and allergens to build up quickly inside ductwork. When the HVAC system runs, those contaminants are circulated through every room, aggravating allergies, reducing system efficiency, and raising energy bills. A professional duct cleaning removes that buildup, restores healthy airflow, and can lower utility costs by up to 20 %.
How does your state-of-the-art equipment improve duct cleaning results compared with traditional methods?
We use a truck-mounted negative-pressure vacuum that produces 5,000+ CFM of suction—about 10 × more than portable units—paired with robotic brush heads that loosen debris without damaging duct walls. Onboard high-definition cameras let our technicians verify that every register, trunk line, and return is spotless before the job is declared complete.
What signs tell me my air ducts need to be cleaned?
Common indicators include visible dust puffs from supply vents, musty odors when the system starts, uneven airflow, unexplained allergy flare-ups, higher electric bills, or discovering more than three years have passed since the last cleaning. If you’ve recently finished a renovation or moved into a previously smoked-in property, scheduling a cleaning is also recommended.
How long will a typical residential duct cleaning take, and what should I expect during the visit?
Most Strawberry Plains homes are finished in 2–4 hours. We begin by laying down protective floor coverings and sealing each register. The vacuum hose is attached near the air handler to pull all loosened debris directly outdoors, preventing any mess inside your living space. After brushing and air-washing every duct, we sanitize the system with an EPA-registered fog to neutralize bacteria and odors, then perform a post-clean camera inspection with you present.
Is your duct cleaning process safe for my HVAC system and indoor air quality?
Yes. Our brushes are nylon-bristled and pressure-controlled so they won’t scratch metal or flex ducts. The negative-air containment prevents particles from escaping into your home. The disinfectant we apply is plant-based, non-corrosive, and safe for children, pets, and sensitive electronics. We also replace the air filter at the end of the service to keep airflow optimal.
How often should ducts be cleaned, and do you offer maintenance plans tailored to Strawberry Plains’ climate?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends every 3–5 years for most households. In Strawberry Plains, homes with pets, smokers, or allergy sufferers benefit from a 2- to 3-year schedule because of seasonal pollen and humidity. We offer discounted maintenance plans that include periodic inspections, filter replacements, and priority scheduling so your system stays clean and efficient year-round.
