FAQs
Why should I have my air ducts cleaned and sanitized in Georgetown?
Georgetown’s humid subtropical climate encourages the growth of mold, bacteria, and dust mites inside ductwork. When your HVAC system runs, these contaminants circulate throughout your home or business, aggravating allergies, creating musty odors, and lowering energy efficiency. Professional duct cleaning removes debris, while our EPA-registered sanitizing treatment neutralizes microbes on contact, leaving the entire system cleaner, healthier, and more efficient.
How often do experts recommend duct cleaning and sanitizing?
For most homes and light-commercial buildings in Georgetown, we recommend a full duct cleaning every 3–5 years and sanitizing every 1–2 years. You may need more frequent service if you have pets, smokers, recent renovations, occupants with respiratory conditions, or evidence of water intrusion or microbial growth. Annual HVAC maintenance visits allow us to inspect the ductwork and advise you on the right schedule.
What does your sanitizing treatment include?
After we complete mechanical brushing and HEPA-filtered vacuuming of the ducts, we fog the system with an EPA-approved disinfectant that is specifically labeled for HVAC use. The fine mist coats the interior surfaces of the supply and return ducts, the blower, and the evaporator coil plenum. It kills over 99.9 % of bacteria, mold spores, and viruses on contact and continues to inhibit microbial growth for up to 6 months without leaving harmful residues or odors.
Will duct sanitizing help with allergies and odors?
Yes. Removing dust, pollen, pet dander, and microbial contaminants significantly reduces airborne triggers that cause sneezing, coughing, and asthma attacks. The disinfectant also eliminates odor-causing bacteria and mold, leaving your indoor air noticeably fresher. Many clients report relief from chronic allergy symptoms within days of the service.
How long does the duct cleaning and sanitizing process take, and will it disrupt my routine?
A typical single-family home in Georgetown takes 2–4 hours from setup to cleanup. Larger homes or commercial properties can take longer, but we schedule work in advance to minimize downtime. During service, we seal off vents, use negative-air machines to prevent dust from escaping, and place protective covers on floors and furnishings. You can remain in the building, though we ask that pets and sensitive individuals stay out of work areas until the treatment is complete and the HVAC has run for at least 30 minutes to dry the disinfectant.
Is the cleaning solution safe for my family, pets, and HVAC equipment?
Absolutely. We use a hospital-grade, EPA-registered product that is non-corrosive, non-flammable, and labeled as safe for use in occupied spaces when applied by professionals. It contains no perfumes or harsh chemicals that can damage coils, duct liners, or insulation. Once dry, it leaves behind no harmful residues, making it safe for children, pets, and people with chemical sensitivities.
