FAQs
Why should I have my air ducts cleaned in Sweetwater’s humid climate?
Sweetwater’s warm, humid weather encourages mold, mildew, and bacterial growth inside ductwork. Dust, pollen, and pet dander also accumulate year-round because AC systems run almost constantly. Professional duct cleaning removes these contaminants, helping prevent musty odors, allergy flare-ups, and premature HVAC wear caused by restricted airflow.
How often do HVAC professionals recommend duct cleaning?
For most Sweetwater homes, we suggest a thorough cleaning every 3–5 years. However, households with pets, smokers, recent renovations, or allergy sufferers may benefit from service every 2–3 years. If you notice visible dust around vents, unexplained respiratory issues, or a big spike in utility bills, schedule an inspection sooner.
What’s included in your duct cleaning service?
Our NADCA-certified technicians begin with a video inspection to document debris, damage, or microbial growth. We then seal all registers and attach a high-powered HEPA vacuum to create negative pressure. Using rotating brushes, compressed-air whips, and sanitizer foggers, we dislodge and remove contaminants from supply and return ducts, plenum boxes, and the air handler. A final camera pass verifies cleanliness before we reassemble and balance the system.
Will duct cleaning lower my energy bills?
Yes. Even a 1/8-inch layer of dust can reduce HVAC efficiency by up to 20 %. Clearing obstructions restores proper airflow, allowing your equipment to heat and cool with less effort. Most customers report noticeably stronger airflow and energy savings of 5–15 % after a professional cleaning.
Is duct cleaning safe for my family and HVAC equipment?
Absolutely. We use soft-bristle brushes and EPA-approved, plant-based sanitizers that leave no harmful residue. All work is performed under continuous negative pressure, so debris is pulled into sealed HEPA filtration instead of drifting into living spaces. Our process meets NADCA and EPA guidelines, protecting both your indoor air quality and your ductwork.
How long does the cleaning take and what does it cost?
A typical single-family home in Sweetwater with one air handler and 10–15 vents takes 2–4 hours. Larger homes or systems with heavy contamination may require 5–6 hours. Pricing starts around $399 and varies with square footage, number of vents, and any add-ons such as dryer-vent cleaning or antimicrobial treatments. We provide a firm, written quote after the initial video inspection.
