FAQs
Why is regular duct cleaning important for Fayetteville homeowners?
Fayetteville’s warm, humid summers and pollen-heavy springs mean your HVAC system pulls a lot of moisture, dust, and airborne contaminants into the ductwork. Over time this buildup can restrict airflow, force your equipment to work harder, circulate allergens throughout the house, and even foster mold growth. Professional duct cleaning removes these deposits, helping your system run efficiently, lowering utility bills, and improving the overall indoor air quality for you and your family.
How often should I schedule professional duct cleaning for my HVAC system?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends cleaning every 3–5 years under normal conditions. In Fayetteville, we suggest leaning toward the shorter end of that range if you have pets, allergy sufferers, recent renovations, or if you run your air conditioning for long periods due to the regional climate. Annual HVAC inspections will help determine whether your ducts need attention sooner.
What signs indicate my air ducts need cleaning?
Common red flags include: visible dust blowing from supply registers, musty or stale odors when the HVAC cycles on, unexplained increases in energy bills, inconsistent room temperatures, or finding excessive dust on furniture soon after cleaning. Residents often notice aggravated allergies or respiratory issues once buildup becomes significant. If you see or smell mold around vents or hear debris rattling in the ductwork, schedule service promptly.
What is included in your professional duct cleaning service?
Our NADCA-certified technicians arrive with high-powered negative-air vacuums, rotary brushes, and compressed-air whips. We: 1) Protect floors and furnishings with drop cloths and corner guards, 2) Inspect the entire system—including supply/return trunks, registers, and the air handler—for damage or microbial growth, 3) Create negative pressure to capture loosened debris, 4) Agitate and extract dust, dander, lint, and other contaminants from every branch line, 5) Clean the blower, evaporator coil, drain pan, and accessible HVAC components, 6) Sanitize ducts with an EPA-registered antimicrobial (optional), and 7) Reseal access panels, replace filters, and provide a post-cleaning report with before-and-after photos.
Will duct cleaning improve my indoor air quality and HVAC efficiency?
Yes. Removing accumulated dust, pollen, pet dander, and microbial growth reduces airborne particles that can trigger allergies and asthma. Clear ducts also facilitate smoother airflow, allowing your furnace or air conditioner to reach set temperatures faster and cycle off sooner. Most customers notice less dust on surfaces and a 5–20 % improvement in system efficiency, which can translate to lower monthly energy costs.
How long does a typical duct cleaning appointment take and is there anything I should do to prepare?
An average Fayetteville home with a single HVAC system takes 2–4 hours to clean; larger homes or multiple systems can take a full day. To prepare, please: 1) Clear access to supply and return vents, 2) Move fragile items away from work areas, 3) Provide a parking space near the entry door for our vacuum truck, and 4) Secure pets for their safety. You do not need to leave the house—our equipment is sealed and low-noise—and we’ll review the results with you before we go.
