FAQs
Why is regular duct cleaning important for my HVAC system in Speedwell?
Over time, dust, pollen, pet dander, and other contaminants build up inside ductwork. In Speedwell’s humid summers and chilly winters, your HVAC fan can push these particles throughout the home every time it cycles on, aggravating allergies, reducing system efficiency, and shortening equipment life. Professional duct cleaning removes this buildup, helping your heating and cooling system operate smoothly, improving indoor air quality, and lowering the risk of costly breakdowns.
How often should I have my air ducts professionally cleaned?
Most Speedwell homeowners benefit from a thorough duct cleaning every 3–5 years, but the exact interval depends on factors such as household size, presence of pets, recent renovations, smokers in the home, and local pollen levels. If someone in your household has asthma or severe allergies, or if you notice visible dust around vents, consider scheduling service more frequently—every 2–3 years.
What signs indicate that my ducts need cleaning?
Common clues include excessive dust on furniture after vacuuming, musty or stale odors whenever the HVAC runs, visible mold inside registers or on duct surfaces, uneven airflow between rooms, and an unexplained spike in energy bills. If you hear rattling inside the ductwork or see puffing dust clouds when the system starts, it’s time to book a professional inspection.
What is included in your duct-cleaning service and how long does it take?
Our Speedwell service begins with a camera inspection to assess duct condition. We then seal each register, place the system under negative pressure with a HEPA-filtered vacuum, and use rotary brushes to dislodge debris. We sanitize accessible components, clean the blower, plenum, and evaporator coil housing, and replace the air filter. A typical single-family home takes 3–5 hours; larger homes or systems with heavy contamination may require additional time.
Will duct cleaning improve indoor air quality and reduce energy bills?
Yes. Removing debris and microbial growth eliminates a major source of airborne irritants, helping occupants breathe easier and reducing allergy or asthma flare-ups. Clean ducts also allow air to flow freely, so the HVAC fan doesn’t work as hard. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that clean, unobstructed ducts can cut heating and cooling costs by up to 20 %, especially when combined with regular filter changes and preventive maintenance.
Is your duct-cleaning process safe for my home and family, and do you use eco-friendly products?
Absolutely. We use HEPA-filtered negative-air machines that prevent contaminants from re-entering your living space, and our agitation tools are designed to protect both metal and flexible ducts. For sanitizing, we apply EPA-registered, low-VOC solutions that are botanically based and safe for children, pets, and individuals with chemical sensitivities. Our technicians wear protective gear, follow NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) guidelines, and provide post-service documentation for your peace of mind.
