FAQs
Why is regular duct cleaning important for homes in Delano?
Delano sits in the southern San Joaquin Valley, where agricultural activity and seasonal dust storms push a lot of particulate matter into the air. That dust, along with pollen, pet dander, and even pesticide residue, is drawn into your HVAC system and can accumulate on duct walls. Professional cleaning removes these contaminants, restoring unobstructed airflow, helping your equipment run more efficiently, and noticeably improving indoor air quality.
How often should I schedule professional duct cleaning for my HVAC system?
For most Delano residences we recommend a full duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, you may need service sooner if you’ve recently completed a remodel, have multiple pets, notice visible dust blowing from registers, or if anyone in the home suffers from asthma or severe allergies. Newly built homes also benefit from a post-construction cleaning to remove drywall and sawdust that contractors can’t fully vacuum out.
What signs indicate that my air ducts need cleaning?
Common warning signs include visible dust buildup on supply vents, a musty or "dirty sock" odor when the furnace or AC starts, unexplained allergy flare-ups, rooms that seem hotter or colder than others, and a spike in utility bills caused by restricted airflow. In extreme cases you may hear rattling debris inside the ducts or see dark streaks on ceiling registers—both clear indicators that service is overdue.
How long does a standard duct cleaning service take and will it disrupt my day?
A typical single-family home in Delano takes 2–4 hours to complete. Our technicians begin by sealing registers, then attach a negative-pressure vacuum to the main trunk line while agitating debris with rotating brushes and compressed air whips. You can remain in the house the entire time; the process is loud but not intrusive, and we lay protective coverings on floors and furniture to keep your space clean.
Are there health benefits associated with duct cleaning?
Yes. Removing dust, mold spores, bacteria, and pest droppings lowers the overall allergen load in your home. Customers often report fewer sinus problems, less coughing, and better sleep after a cleaning. In the Central Valley, where Valley Fever (coccidioidomycosis) spores are present, fewer airborne particles can also reduce exposure risk. Cleaner ducts additionally help limit the spread of household odors from cooking, pets, or tobacco.
What sets your Delano duct cleaning service apart from others?
We are NADCA-certified, fully licensed, and insured, and our technicians undergo regular continuing education. Our truck-mounted vacuum units create 10,000 CFM of suction—triple the power of portable machines—so debris is removed, not redistributed. Each job comes with before-and-after camera inspections, a written satisfaction guarantee, and optional add-ons like dryer-vent cleaning and HVAC coil sanitation. As a local family-owned business, we know Delano’s specific air-quality challenges and schedule appointments that fit your lifestyle—evenings and Saturdays included.
