FAQs
Why is eco-friendly duct cleaning important for my heating and air conditioning system?
Conventional duct cleaning can introduce harsh chemicals or create excess particulate matter that lingers in your indoor air. Our eco-friendly approach uses non-toxic cleaning agents, high-efficiency vacuums with HEPA filtration, and low-energy equipment. This keeps pollutants out of Halls’ homes, protects children, pets, and allergy sufferers, and prevents harmful residues from entering the environment while still removing dust, mold, and debris that restrict airflow.
What makes your duct-cleaning process environmentally friendly?
1. Plant-based, biodegradable cleaners replace corrosive solvents. 2. Negative-air machines fitted with HEPA filters capture 99.97 % of particles, so nothing is released back into your living space or the atmosphere. 3. All removed contaminants are sealed, labeled, and delivered to an approved recycling or disposal facility. 4. The equipment we use is ENERGY STAR® rated, reducing electricity consumption by up to 30 % compared with conventional machines. 5. We schedule jobs efficiently to minimize vehicle miles traveled around Halls, further lowering our carbon footprint.
What benefits will I notice after an eco-friendly duct cleaning?
• Cleaner indoor air: Dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores are removed, easing asthma and allergy symptoms. • Improved HVAC efficiency: Unobstructed ducts allow your system to heat and cool more quickly, potentially cutting energy use by 10–20 %. • Extended equipment life: Less strain on blowers and coils means fewer breakdowns and a longer lifespan for your furnace and AC unit. • Fresher scent: Eliminating microbial growth and odor-causing debris leaves your home smelling clean without artificial fragrances. • Peace of mind: You get these gains without introducing VOCs or hazardous chemicals.
How often should ducts be cleaned in Halls’ climate?
For most homes in Halls, we recommend an inspection every 2 years and a full cleaning every 3–5 years. However, you may need more frequent service if: • You have pets that shed heavily. • A household member smokes indoors. • There has been recent renovation generating construction dust. • Anyone in the home has severe allergies or respiratory issues. • You notice visible mold, persistent odors, or excessive dust build-up near registers.
Will eco-friendly duct cleaning really lower my energy bills?
Yes. The U.S. Department of Energy reports that 25–40 % of the energy used for home heating and cooling is wasted, often due to restricted airflow. By removing obstructions and verifying proper duct sealing, your system can operate at its designed efficiency. Customers in Halls typically see a 5–15 % reduction in monthly energy costs following a thorough, eco-friendly cleaning and inspection.
Is the cleaning process disruptive, and how long does it take?
A standard single-family home in Halls takes 2–4 hours to complete. Our team lays down reusable protective floor coverings, uses quiet, insulated vacuums, and keeps doors closed as much as possible to maintain indoor comfort. There is no need to leave your home; you can continue normal activities, and we provide a detailed post-service report with before-and-after photos so you can see the results.
