Cleaning the air ducts in your home eliminates contaminants like dust, dirt, bacteria, pet dander, and debris from your ductwork. These ducts are an essential part of your HVAC system, responsible for circulating air throughout your home. Fresh air is pushed through the supply vents and then recirculated through the return vents.
Benefits of Duct Cleaning
Reduces allergens and irritants circulating through the vents.
Improves air quality in the home.
Removes unpleasant odors and smells.
Removes dust and microbial debris in ducts.
Why is it important to have my home's air ducts cleaned regularly?
We recommend cleaning your air ducts every 3-5 years, though the timing may vary depending on your home’s specific conditions. Some homes may need more frequent cleaning due to factors such as shedding pets, smoke from cigars or cigarettes, or residents with allergies or asthma. On average, we spend around 90% of our time indoors—whether at home, work, or school. Over time, contaminants build up in your air ducts, and when your HVAC system runs, it circulates that air throughout your home. This accumulation can reduce the efficiency of your HVAC system and shorten its lifespan.
How do you know it's time for air duct cleaning?
- Notice dust building up on vent covers?
- Feel like you're dusting every day?
- Do your allergies flare up when you're at home or work?
- Recently completed construction or remodeling?
- Smell a musty odor when the HVAC system is running?
Having your air ducts cleaned is like refreshing your home’s lungs, allowing clean, fresh air to circulate. Struggling with allergies or constantly dusting your home? The solution could be as simple as cleaning your air ducts!
