FAQs

Why is duct cleaning important for my HVAC system in Thornhill?

Over time, dust, pollen, pet dander, and even mold spores can accumulate in your ductwork. In Thornhill’s four-season climate, your HVAC system runs much of the year, so dirty ducts circulate contaminants whenever the blower turns on. Regular cleaning helps protect indoor air quality, reduces strain on your furnace and air conditioner, and can lower utility bills by restoring proper airflow.

How often should I schedule professional duct cleaning?

Most Thornhill homeowners benefit from duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, you may need it sooner if you have recently completed renovations, own shedding pets, notice visible dust around vents, or have family members with allergies or respiratory conditions. Newly built homes can also have excess construction debris in the ducts that should be removed within the first year.

What signs indicate my ducts need cleaning?

Common warning signs include musty or dusty odors when the HVAC system starts, visible dust puffs from supply registers, inconsistent airflow between rooms, excessive dust buildup on furniture, spikes in allergy symptoms, or finding insects or rodent droppings in or near vents. If you observe any of these, it’s wise to book an inspection.

What is included in your Thornhill duct cleaning service?

Our certified technicians begin with a camera inspection to assess the condition of your ducts. We then seal each register, connect a high-powered negative-air vacuum to the main trunk line, and agitate debris with rotating brushes and compressed air whips. All supply and return lines, trunk lines, and HVAC components such as the blower and evaporator coil housing are addressed. We finish with a post-clean video, sanitize the ductwork upon request, and leave your home exactly as we found it.

How long does a typical duct cleaning appointment take and will it disrupt my home?

For an average 2,000-square-foot Thornhill home with one furnace, the full process takes roughly 2–3 hours. Larger homes or multiple HVAC systems may require up to half a day. We use sealed equipment and protective drop sheets to keep dust contained, so you can stay in the house during the service with minimal disruption. The HVAC system can usually be turned back on immediately after we finish.

Will duct cleaning really improve indoor air quality and energy efficiency?

Yes. By removing dust, allergens, and microbial growth, duct cleaning reduces airborne particles that can trigger asthma and allergies. Clean ducts also allow your blower motor to move air more freely, which can improve airflow by up to 25% and help your furnace or AC reach set temperatures faster. Many customers report lower energy bills and fewer HVAC repairs after a thorough duct cleaning.
