FAQs
Why is professional air-duct cleaning important for homes in Farragut?
Farragut’s warm, humid summers and pollen-heavy spring seasons cause dust, mold spores, and allergens to collect quickly inside ductwork. When your HVAC system runs, those contaminants are circulated through every room, aggravating allergies, lowering indoor air quality, and forcing the equipment to work harder. A professional cleaning removes built-up debris, sanitizes interior metal, and helps your heating and cooling system deliver cleaner air and more consistent temperatures year-round.
How often should I schedule duct cleaning for my HVAC system?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends cleaning every 3–5 years, but local conditions can shorten that cycle. In Farragut we suggest every 2–3 years if you have pets, recent renovations, smokers in the home, or family members with asthma or allergies. New homeowners should also consider a one-time cleaning if they are unsure of the previous maintenance history.
What signs indicate my air ducts need to be cleaned?
• Visible dust blowing from supply registers • Musty or stale odors when the HVAC fan starts • Uneven airflow or rooms that never seem to reach the set temperature • A sudden increase in dust accumulation on furniture • Unexplained spikes in energy bills • Recent construction, water damage, or rodent activity around ductwork. If you notice any of these, scheduling an inspection is the best next step.
What does your Farragut duct-cleaning service include?
1. Free on-site inspection and written estimate. 2. Sealing off each register to create negative pressure. 3. High-powered HEPA vacuuming of supply and return trunks, branches, and plenums. 4. Rotating brush and compressed-air whip to dislodge stubborn debris. 5. Optional EPA-approved antimicrobial fogging to neutralize mold and bacteria. 6. Final camera verification and post-service report. All technicians are NADCA-certified and follow strict cleanliness protocols to protect your home.
Will duct cleaning lower my energy bills?
Yes. Even a thin layer of dust can reduce airflow by 10% or more, forcing your HVAC blower motor to run longer to achieve set temperatures. Independent studies show professionally cleaned ducts and coils can improve system efficiency by 10–20%, translating into noticeable utility savings—especially during Farragut’s peak cooling and heating months.
Is duct cleaning safe for my HVAC system and my family?
Absolutely. We use soft-bristle agitation tools and negative-pressure vacuums that prevent debris from escaping into living areas. All disinfectants are EPA-registered for residential HVAC use and leave no harmful residue. Because proper duct cleaning does not damage sheet-metal or flexible ducts, it preserves system integrity while removing health-impacting contaminants.
