FAQs
What makes rotating-brush duct cleaning different from traditional air-wash methods?
Rotating-brush equipment physically scrubs the interior walls of your ductwork while a high-powered vacuum captures loosened debris. This mechanical action removes stubborn dust, pet dander, and microbial film that air-wash or negative-air systems can miss, resulting in a more thorough cleaning—especially important for older Friendsville homes with heavily soiled ducts.
How often should I have my HVAC ducts cleaned in Friendsville?
For most households, we recommend a professional duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, if you have pets that shed, family members with allergies, a recent renovation, or you’ve moved into an older Friendsville property, you may benefit from cleaning every 2–3 years. Our technicians can perform an on-site inspection to customize the schedule for your system.
Will rotating-brush duct cleaning damage my ductwork?
No. Our brushes are made of soft nylon bristles chosen to match the diameter and material of your ducts (flex, metal, or fiberboard). The rotation speed is adjustable, allowing us to safely clean without tearing liners or dislodging joints. Before we begin, we inspect for weak spots and seal them if necessary, ensuring the integrity of your HVAC system.
How long does a typical duct cleaning appointment take?
Most residential jobs in the Friendsville area take 2–4 hours, depending on home size, number of systems, accessibility, and how dirty the ducts are. Larger homes or properties with multiple HVAC units may require half a day. We provide a time estimate after our initial inspection so you can plan accordingly.
What improvements should I expect after my ducts are cleaned?
Clients usually notice reduced dust accumulation on furniture, improved airflow, and more consistent temperatures room to room. Allergy sufferers often report fewer symptoms because allergens are removed from the air stream. Cleaner ducts can also help your HVAC system operate more efficiently, potentially lowering energy bills and extending equipment life.
Do you offer any guarantees or certifications for your duct cleaning service?
Yes. Our technicians are NADCA-certified (National Air Duct Cleaners Association), adhere to EPA guidelines, and use HEPA-filtered vacuums to ensure containment of contaminants. We back our rotating-brush cleaning with a 12-month workmanship guarantee: if you’re not satisfied or experience excessive dust within a year, we’ll return and re-inspect at no cost.
