FAQs
Why should I have my air ducts cleaned by System Efficiency Heating & Air Conditioning in Shelbyville?
Over time dust, pollen, pet dander, and other debris accumulate inside ductwork and are circulated every time your HVAC system runs. Our professional cleaning removes these contaminants, which can improve indoor air quality, reduce allergy triggers, increase system efficiency, and potentially lower energy bills. We use industry-standard negative-pressure vacuums, rotary brushes, and high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration to ensure a thorough job.
How often do experts recommend duct cleaning?
Most homes should have their ducts inspected every 2–3 years and cleaned every 3–5 years. However, you may need more frequent service if you have pets that shed, recent renovations, smokers in the home, residents with asthma or allergies, or if you notice visible dust buildup, musty odors, or reduced HVAC performance.
What is included in your Shelbyville duct-cleaning service?
Our comprehensive service includes: (1) a pre-service camera inspection to locate problem areas; (2) protective coverings for flooring and furnishings; (3) agitation of debris with rotating brushes and compressed-air whips; (4) high-power vacuum extraction with HEPA filtration to capture particles; (5) cleaning of supply and return plenums, registers, and grilles; (6) optional antimicrobial fogging or sanitizer on request; and (7) a post-cleaning video or photo report so you can see the results.
Will duct cleaning damage my HVAC system or void its warranty?
No. We follow National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) standards, use soft-bristle equipment sized to your ductwork, and access the ducts through existing openings or small service ports that we professionally seal afterward. Our process is non-invasive and approved by major HVAC manufacturers, so your system warranty remains intact.
How long does the service take and do I need to leave the house?
An average single-family home in Shelbyville takes 3–5 hours, depending on duct length, number of supply/return registers, and level of contamination. You do not have to vacate the property, but we recommend keeping pets and small children away from work areas for safety and to minimize airborne dust during the initial agitation phase.
What does duct cleaning cost and are there any discounts available?
Pricing is based on square footage, number of registers, and accessibility. Typical costs range from $350–$550 for most Shelbyville homes. We provide free in-home quotes, offer military and senior discounts, and bundle savings if you schedule duct cleaning along with a seasonal HVAC tune-up.
