FAQs
What does it mean that your technicians are NADCA-certified, and why is that important for duct cleaning in Apison?
NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) certification proves that our technicians have passed rigorous training and testing on HVAC system cleaning, safety, and contamination control. In Apison’s humid climate, mold and dust can accumulate quickly. A NADCA-certified crew follows industry-recognized standards (ACR, the NADCA Standard) to remove these contaminants thoroughly while protecting your HVAC equipment and indoor air quality.
How often should I schedule professional air-duct cleaning for my home or business in Apison?
Most homes benefit from a full duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, Apison’s pollen-rich spring seasons, nearby construction dust, pets, recent renovations, or allergy sufferers may justify service every 2–3 years. Commercial buildings with higher occupant turnover or specialized processes (restaurants, light manufacturing) should be assessed annually to determine the right interval.
What are the signs that my air ducts need cleaning?
Common warning signs include musty or dusty odors when the HVAC turns on, visible dust puffs from supply vents, unexplained respiratory or allergy flare-ups, inconsistent airflow between rooms, and an unusually high amount of dust settling on furniture. If you see mold inside ducts or register grills, or you have had a vermin infestation, schedule service immediately.
What is included in your NADCA-approved duct cleaning process?
1. Pre-inspection: Video-scope examination and airflow readings. 2. HVAC system protection: We cover flooring, furniture, and seal registers. 3. Source removal: High-powered HEPA vacuum is attached to the main trunk lines to create negative pressure. 4. Mechanical agitation: Rotating brushes, air whips, and compressed-air tools dislodge debris. 5. Component cleaning: Blower, coils, drain pan, and return plenum are cleaned. 6. Sanitizing (optional): EPA-registered antimicrobials are fogged to inhibit mold. 7. Post-inspection: Before-and-after images/videos and final airflow verification. This comprehensive approach meets or exceeds NADCA’s ACR Standard.
Will duct cleaning lower my energy bills?
Yes, removing debris allows conditioned air to flow freely, which reduces fan motor strain and can improve HVAC efficiency by up to 20%. Clean coils and blowers transfer heat or cooling more effectively, meaning the system cycles less often. While savings vary, many Apison customers see noticeable reductions in energy costs and HVAC wear.
How much does professional duct cleaning cost, and what factors affect the price in Apison?
Residential jobs typically range from $450 to $700, depending on square footage, number of HVAC zones, duct length, and accessibility (attic, crawl space). Heavily contaminated systems, mold remediation, or required coil cleaning add to the price. We provide free on-site assessments and upfront, itemized quotes so there are no surprises.
