FAQs
Your Questions, Clearly Answered
1. Why is air duct cleaning important?
Air duct cleaning removes dust, debris, pet dander, mold spores, and other contaminants from your HVAC system. Over time, these pollutants accumulate and circulate throughout your home, impacting air quality and even triggering allergies or respiratory issues. Clean air ducts improve indoor air quality, enhance HVAC efficiency, and extend the lifespan of your system. It’s especially important for households with pets, smokers, or allergy-sensitive residents.
2. How often should I get my air ducts cleaned?
Most experts recommend cleaning air ducts every 3 to 5 years, but it can vary depending on your home and lifestyle. If you've recently renovated, have indoor pets, experience excessive dust, or notice allergy flare-ups, it's a good idea to schedule a cleaning sooner. Regular maintenance not only helps your system run smoothly but also ensures a healthier indoor environment for your family.
3. What are the benefits of dryer vent cleaning?
Dryer vent cleaning is crucial for both safety and efficiency. Lint and debris can accumulate in the vent, restricting airflow and creating a serious fire hazard. Cleaning the dryer vent not only reduces this risk but also improves your dryer’s performance, reduces energy usage, and helps your clothes dry faster. It’s a simple service that can prevent costly damage and protect your home.
4. How long does the cleaning process take?
On average, a full air duct and dryer vent cleaning takes between 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the size of your home and the number of vents. Larger homes or systems with heavy buildup may take longer. We always aim to work efficiently while ensuring a thorough, professional cleaning from start to finish.
