FAQs
Why is air duct cleaning important for homes in Tazewell?
Tazewell’s four-season climate means heating and cooling systems operate almost year-round. As air circulates, dust, pollen, mold spores, and even coal or agricultural by-products common to our region can accumulate inside the ductwork. A professional cleaning removes this buildup, helping reduce allergy and respiratory irritants, protecting HVAC components from premature wear, and promoting consistent airflow throughout your home.
How often should I schedule professional duct cleaning?
Most homeowners benefit from a thorough duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, you may need service sooner if you’ve recently completed a remodel, live with pets that shed heavily, have household members with allergies or asthma, or notice visible dust blowing from registers. Comfort Systems technicians can inspect your ducts and recommend a maintenance interval tailored to your home’s conditions.
What are common signs that my ductwork needs cleaning?
Warning signs include excessive dust on furniture shortly after cleaning, visible debris or mold inside supply vents, musty or burning odors when the HVAC system starts, uneven airflow between rooms, unexplained increases in utility bills, or allergy symptoms that worsen indoors. If you observe any of these issues, schedule an inspection with Comfort Systems to determine whether cleaning is required.
What is included in Comfort Systems’ duct cleaning service?
Our NADCA-certified team begins with a camera inspection to pinpoint trouble spots. We then seal each register and use high-powered negative-air equipment and rotary brushes to dislodge and extract contaminants along the entire duct run, including trunk lines and returns. We also clean the blower, accessible evaporator coil surfaces, and sanitize the system with an EPA-approved antimicrobial treatment. Before leaving, we re-seal access panels and provide before-and-after photos for your peace of mind.
How long does a typical duct cleaning visit take, and will it disrupt my household?
For an average 2,000-square-foot home in Tazewell, duct cleaning usually takes 3–4 hours. Larger homes or systems with heavy buildup may require additional time. Our crew uses drop cloths, corner guards, and HEPA-filtered vacuums to keep your living space clean. You can stay in the house during the process, and your HVAC system is shut down only briefly while we connect equipment, minimizing disruption.
Will duct cleaning improve my HVAC efficiency and indoor air quality?
Yes. Removing accumulated dust and debris allows conditioned air to move more freely, reducing strain on the blower motor and helping the system reach set temperatures faster. Clean ducts also mean fewer particulates recirculating through your home, which often translates into cleaner surfaces, reduced allergens, and a fresher indoor environment. Many Tazewell customers report lower energy bills and easier breathing after service.
