FAQs
What advantages do high-powered vacuum duct cleanings offer Georgetown homeowners?
Our truck-mounted, high-powered vacuums generate up to 5,000 CFM of suction—several times stronger than portable machines. This strength pulls built-up dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, construction debris and other contaminants completely out of your supply and return lines instead of merely loosening them. The result is measurably cleaner ductwork, fewer airborne particles, less strain on your furnace or air conditioner, and, in many cases, lower utility bills because the system can breathe freely.
How often should I schedule duct cleaning for my heating and air-conditioning system?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends a professional cleaning every 3–5 years for most residences. Georgetown’s cedar pollen season, frequent humidity swings and new-home construction dust can accelerate buildup, so households with allergy sufferers, pets, recent renovations, or smokers may benefit from cleanings every 2–3 years. We offer free visual inspections to help you decide when service is truly needed.
Will duct cleaning really improve my indoor air quality and energy efficiency?
Yes. Independent EPA studies show that a dirty coil or blower motor can reduce HVAC efficiency by up to 21 %. Removing debris from the air handler, supply trunks and registers restores proper airflow and heat exchange. Customers often notice reduced household dust, fewer allergy flare-ups and more even temperatures after service. While duct cleaning is not a cure-all, when combined with proper filtration and routine HVAC maintenance, it is an effective part of an overall indoor air quality plan.
What should I expect on the day of service and how long does it take?
Most Georgetown homes take 2–4 hours to complete. Our crew will: 1) protect floors with drop cloths, 2) block each register, 3) connect the truck-mounted vacuum to your main trunk lines, 4) use rotating brushes and compressed-air whips to dislodge debris, 5) clean the blower, coils and drain pan, 6) sanitize ductwork on request, and 7) reinstall vent covers. We finish with a walkthrough and before-and-after photos. You can remain in the home, and your HVAC system can be used immediately afterward.
Are your technicians certified and do you follow recognized industry standards?
Absolutely. All lead technicians are NADCA-certified Air Systems Cleaning Specialists (ASCS) and carry Texas HVAC licenses. We adhere to NADCA ACR standards and use EPA-registered disinfectants. Our company is also bonded, insured and BBB-accredited, giving you peace of mind that the job will be done safely and professionally.
Will duct cleaning damage my HVAC equipment or create a mess in my house?
When performed by trained professionals, duct cleaning is completely safe for your system. We use negative-pressure containment to keep dust from escaping, soft-bristle brushes designed for metal and flex ducts, and foam-tipped agitators for lined ducts. All register openings are sealed during cleaning, and we place corner guards and drop cloths in high-traffic areas. After finishing, we vacuum around each vent and remove all protective coverings, leaving your home as clean—or cleaner—than we found it.
