FAQs
What does it mean to be NADCA-certified and why is it important for duct cleaning in Sale Creek?
NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) certification signifies that our technicians have passed stringent exams on HVAC system cleaning, safety, and contamination control, and that we follow NADCA’s ACR Standard—the industry’s most recognized benchmark for proper air-duct cleaning. For homeowners in Sale Creek, this means you receive a service that meets national best practices, reduces the risk of re-contamination, and protects your HVAC investment and indoor air quality.
How often should I schedule air-duct cleaning in Sale Creek’s climate?
Most homes benefit from professional duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, Sale Creek’s humidity and seasonal pollen can accelerate dust and microbial buildup. We recommend an inspection every 2 years, with cleaning sooner if you’ve recently renovated, installed a new HVAC unit, noticed visible dust emissions from vents, dealt with pest infestations, or if household members suffer from allergies or asthma.
What warning signs indicate my ducts need professional cleaning?
Common red flags include: persistent musty or dusty odors when the HVAC runs; visible matted dust around supply registers; inconsistent airflow or hot/cold spots; unexplained spikes in energy bills; allergy flare-ups at home; recent water damage or mold growth; and rattling noises that can point to debris or loose parts in the ductwork. If you notice one or more of these, a NADCA inspection is advisable.
What is included in your NADCA-certified duct cleaning service and how long does it take?
Our full-service visit involves: a pre-cleaning camera inspection; sealing and pressurizing the system; source removal using negative-air vacuum trucks and HEPA filtration; mechanical agitation of every trunk line, branch line, and register; cleaning of the blower, evaporator coil housing, and return air plenum; EPA-registered antimicrobial fogging (if requested); and a post-cleaning video verification. A typical 2,000-sq-ft home in Sale Creek takes 3–5 hours, while larger or heavily soiled systems may require a full day.
Will duct cleaning really improve my indoor air quality and HVAC efficiency?
Yes. Removing accumulated dust, dander, pollen, and microbial deposits reduces airborne irritants that recirculate through your living space, which is especially helpful for allergy sufferers. A clean duct system also lowers static pressure, allowing your furnace or air conditioner to move air more freely. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that a clean, well-maintained HVAC system can operate up to 20% more efficiently, saving energy and extending equipment life.
How do you protect my home and HVAC system during the cleaning process?
We lay down clean drop cloths, use corner guards, and wear protective booties to keep floors and walls pristine. All registers are sealed before negative-pressure cleaning to prevent dust release into living areas. Our agitation tools are nylon-bristled or soft-whip so they won’t scratch metal ducts, and we cover electronic components before fogging. Afterward, we reinstall every register, wipe down work areas, and provide a written, photo-documented report so you can see exactly what was done.
