Air duct cleaning removes dust, soot and debris from the supply and return ducts, the registers and the furnace blower area. It matters most after smoke damage, mold, renovation dust or a pest problem. Ducts that blow soot or dust after a fire or a job should be cleaned before the system runs for long.
What to do right now
- Leave the HVAC off after a fire until the ducts are checked.
- Change the furnace filter.
When duct cleaning is worth it
- After a fire or furnace puff-back
- After a mold job, so spores are not spread again
- After drywall sanding or renovation dust
- If you see dust or debris blowing from the registers
- After rodents or insects got into the ducts
What we clean
- Supply and return ducts
- Registers and grilles
- The blower area and return plenum
How we do it
We put the duct system under negative pressure with a vacuum unit, then loosen debris with brushes and air tools from each register. The debris is pulled into the vacuum, not blown into the house. We cover floors and furniture near the work.
What it will not fix
Duct cleaning does not fix a furnace or stop a moisture problem. If ducts had mold, the moisture cause needs to be fixed too. See mold remediation.
