FAQs
Why is professional duct cleaning important for my home in Calhoun?
In Northwest Georgia, our warm, humid summers and frequent pollen spikes allow dust, mold spores, and allergens to accumulate quickly inside ductwork. Certified duct cleaning removes this build-up, preventing it from circulating through your HVAC system and into your living spaces. Cleaner ducts mean better indoor air quality, a lower risk of respiratory irritation, and less strain on your heating and cooling equipment, which can extend its life.
How often should I schedule HVAC duct cleaning?
Most Calhoun homeowners benefit from a thorough cleaning every 3–5 years. However, you may need service sooner if you’ve recently completed a renovation, own pets that shed, have household members with allergies or asthma, or notice visible dust around supply registers. Our specialists can inspect your ducts and recommend a schedule tailored to your home’s conditions and the manufacturer’s guidelines.
What signs indicate that my air ducts need cleaning?
Common red flags include musty or dusty odors when the HVAC system starts, visible mold growth inside vents, excessive dust on furniture shortly after cleaning, inconsistent airflow between rooms, or an unexplained spike in energy bills. If you see puffs of dust when air begins flowing from registers, it’s time to call a certified technician.
What is included in your certified HVAC duct cleaning service?
We follow National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) standards. Our process involves: (1) inspecting the entire HVAC system with video-scope technology; (2) creating negative pressure with a high-powered HEPA vacuum; (3) dislodging debris with rotating brushes and compressed-air whips; (4) sanitizing ducts with EPA-approved solutions if microbial growth is found; (5) cleaning supply and return plenums, registers, grilles, blower motor, evaporator coil, and drain pan; and (6) providing before-and-after images along with a written report.
Will duct cleaning improve my indoor air quality and energy efficiency?
Yes. Removing dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores reduces airborne contaminants, which can alleviate allergy and asthma symptoms. A clean duct system also allows air to flow freely, letting your HVAC unit operate at peak efficiency. Studies show homeowners can save up to 11% on heating and cooling costs when ducts and related components are kept clean and properly maintained.
How long does a typical duct cleaning service take and how should I prepare?
For an average single-family home in Calhoun, expect 2–5 hours, depending on system size and contamination level. Before our technicians arrive, clear access to all supply and return vents, move fragile items away from work areas, and secure pets. You don’t need to leave your home; our equipment is designed to keep dust contained. After we finish, you can resume normal HVAC operation immediately.
