FAQs
Why should I have my air ducts cleaned in Sunbright?
Sunbright’s mix of humid summers and cool, pollen-heavy springs means dust, pet dander, mold spores, and outdoor allergens collect quickly inside ductwork. A professional cleaning removes these contaminants, helping your HVAC system deliver cleaner air, reducing allergy triggers, preventing musty odors, and lowering the risk of microbial growth caused by our region’s humidity.
How often do experts recommend duct cleaning for homes in our area?
For most Sunbright households, the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends a full cleaning every 3–5 years. You may need it sooner (every 2–3 years) if you have pets that shed, household smokers, recent renovations, or family members with asthma or severe allergies. Annual HVAC maintenance visits still occur between cleanings to keep equipment running efficiently.
Will duct cleaning improve my heating and cooling efficiency?
Yes. When dust and debris coat the inner walls of your ducts, airflow is restricted, forcing your furnace or air conditioner to work harder and run longer. After cleaning, static pressure inside the ductwork drops, supply registers deliver air more freely, and the system can reach thermostat set-points faster—often trimming 5–15 % from seasonal energy costs.
What are common signs my ducts need professional attention?
Watch for excessive dust buildup on furniture shortly after cleaning, visible dark “shadowing” around supply registers, musty or stale odors when the HVAC fan starts, inconsistent room temperatures, or an unexplained rise in utility bills. If you notice any of these, schedule an inspection; we use cameras to show you the inside of your ductwork before recommending service.
What does the duct-cleaning process involve?
Our certified technicians begin by protecting floors and furniture, then create access points in the main trunk lines. We attach a high-powered negative-pressure vacuum (rated at 5,000+ CFM) to pull contaminants toward our filtration unit outside the home. While the system is under vacuum, we use rotary brushes and compressed-air whips to dislodge debris from every branch run. Finally, we sanitize the ducts with an EPA-registered, fragrance-free antimicrobial treatment and reinstall access panels to code.
How long will the service take, and do I need to leave my home?
A typical single-family home in Sunbright (2,000–3,000 sq ft) takes 3–5 hours from setup to final walkthrough. Larger homes or systems with multiple HVAC units can take up to a full day. You do not need to leave; we keep noise and disruption to a minimum, and our HEPA-filtered vacuums ensure debris stays contained. You can resume normal heating or cooling as soon as we finish.
