FAQs
Why should I have my heating and air-conditioning ducts cleaned?
Over time, dust, pet dander, pollen, mould spores and even construction debris accumulate inside ductwork. When your HVAC system runs, these contaminants circulate through your home or business, aggravating allergies, reducing indoor air quality and forcing the system to work harder. Professional duct cleaning by our Manchester-based, BESA- and NADCA-trained technicians removes this build-up, helping your equipment run more efficiently, extending its life span and creating a healthier indoor environment.
How often do Manchester properties need professional duct cleaning?
For most homes and light-use commercial premises we recommend a full duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, you may need it more frequently if you have pets that shed, occupants with asthma or allergies, recent renovation work, or if you notice persistent dust, musty odours or visible mould inside vents. Businesses that must meet specific air-quality regulations—such as medical facilities, salons and food-service venues—typically schedule annual cleanings to remain compliant.
What is included in your certified technicians’ duct-cleaning service?
Our comprehensive service involves: 1) A pre-clean inspection with a high-resolution duct camera to assess contamination levels. 2) Sealing all registers and returns so debris is captured, not released into rooms. 3) Negative-pressure extraction using a high-powered HEPA vacuum. 4) Mechanical agitation with rotary brushes and air whips to dislodge stubborn debris. 5) Optional eco-friendly antimicrobial fogging where mould or bacteria is detected. 6) A post-clean video inspection and air-flow test, followed by a detailed service report and maintenance recommendations.
How long does a typical duct-cleaning appointment take?
For an average three-bed semi-detached house in Manchester, the process takes 3–4 hours. Larger homes or commercial premises with multiple air-handling units can take a full day or more. We provide a precise time estimate after the initial on-site survey, and our crew always works to minimise disruption—protecting flooring and furnishings and leaving the workspace spotless when finished.
Can professional duct cleaning really lower my energy bills?
Yes. A 2–4 mm layer of dust on duct walls can reduce HVAC efficiency by up to 15 %. Removing that layer restores optimal air flow, allowing the system to reach set temperatures faster and cycle off sooner. Cleaner components also experience less wear, decreasing the likelihood of costly breakdowns. Many customers report a noticeable drop in gas and electricity consumption during the first billing cycle after service.
Are your duct-cleaning technicians certified and fully insured?
Absolutely. All technicians hold City & Guilds Level 2 or higher in Heating & Ventilation, are F-Gas certified for refrigerant handling, and have completed NADCA Air Systems Cleaning Specialist (ASCS) training. Our company carries £5 million public liability insurance and £10 million employers’ liability cover. Certificates and insurance documents are available on request, giving you complete peace of mind that the work is done safely and to recognised industry standards.
