If you’ve ever changed the air filter in your HVAC system, you may have noticed how quickly the dust can build up from just a few months of running your heat or AC. Most of the time, the only dust and debri that we notice in our HVAC system, is going to be in our filter or on the register grilles installed at the vents. It’s easy enough to clean the grilles and change the filter, and you may even be able to clean just inside the vent, but what happens to all the other dust in your system?
Unfortunately all the inaccessible duct in your system traps the dust and allows it to accumulate over time. Many homes have never had the HVAC systems cleaned, which could mean years or decades of dust and dirt build up. Not only can a dirty duct system be hazardous to the health of people living in the home, it can also make your system run less efficiently.
Our thorough duct cleaning includes every inch of your duct system, and typically takes between 4-6 hours depending on the size of your home. We start by connecting a truck mounted HEPA filtered vacuum directly to your duct system. We then block off the registers that are connected to the ductwork. Once everything is set up we turn the vacuum on and then start removing the blocks one by one so we can send an extendable cleaning wand through the ductwork to stir up the dust / debris. The dirt / debris gets pulled into the vacuum that we've set up as we clean every individual trunk and vent line in your system. The dust that is being pulled out of the system goes straight to our truck and never mixes with your house air. After we are done cleaning the branch lines, we wash all the vent covers and reinstall them. After we are done cleaning the system, we can also perform duct fogging to ensure the system is completely sanitized.
