FAQs
Why should I have my air ducts cleaned in Jonesborough?
Jonesborough’s mix of humid summers, cool winters, and seasonal pollen can cause dust, mold spores, and allergens to accumulate inside your ductwork. A professional cleaning removes this buildup, improving indoor air quality, helping allergy and asthma sufferers breathe easier, and preventing pollutants from circulating through your home each time the HVAC system runs. Clean ducts also allow air to flow freely, reducing strain on your heating and cooling equipment.
How often should residential ducts be professionally cleaned?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends an inspection every 2–3 years and cleaning every 3–5 years for most homes. However, you may need more frequent service if you have pets that shed, family members with respiratory conditions, recent renovations, or if you notice visible dust around supply vents. In Jonesborough’s high-pollen spring season, allergy-sensitive households often choose cleaning at the shorter end of that range.
What signs indicate my ducts need cleaning?
Common red flags include: • Visible dust puffs or debris when HVAC starts. • Musty or stale odors that linger. • Uneven airflow or rooms that never reach the set temperature. • Excess household dust despite regular cleaning. • Recent construction or water damage. • A spike in allergy or respiratory symptoms indoors. If you notice any of these issues, an inspection can confirm whether a full duct cleaning is the solution.
What is included in your professional duct cleaning service and how long does it take?
Our NADCA-certified technicians begin with a camera inspection to document the condition of your ductwork. We then seal all registers, place the system under negative pressure with a high-powered HEPA vacuum, and agitate debris using rotating brushes and compressed-air whips. Supply and return plenums, trunk lines, and branch ducts are thoroughly cleaned. We also clean the blower, evaporator coil, drain pan, and accessible HVAC components, finishing with an EPA-approved sanitizer. Most single-family homes in Jonesborough take 3–5 hours, while larger homes or those with extensive buildup may take longer.
Will duct cleaning lower my energy bills and improve HVAC performance?
Yes. Dust and debris restrict airflow, forcing your furnace or air handler to work harder to push conditioned air through the system. After cleaning, airflow is restored, motors run at optimal speed, and the system cycles less frequently. Homeowners typically see energy savings of 5–15 % and experience more consistent temperatures throughout the house.
Is duct cleaning safe for my HVAC system and indoor environment?
Absolutely. We use soft-bristle brushes, controlled air pressure, and industry-specific vacuum equipment designed to protect metal and flex ducts. All access holes we create are sealed with code-compliant plates, preserving system integrity. Our HEPA-filtered vacuums capture 99.97 % of particles down to 0.3 microns, preventing contaminants from entering your living space. Optional botanical sanitizers leave no chemical residue and are safe for children, pets, and sensitive individuals.
