FAQs
How often should I schedule professional duct cleaning for my Benton home?
Most homes in Benton benefit from duct cleaning every 3–5 years. However, if you have pets that shed, family members with allergies, recent remodeling dust, or you notice visible mold or debris around vents, you may need service sooner—about every 2–3 years.
What are the main benefits of having my air ducts cleaned?
Clean ducts remove built-up dust, pollen, pet dander, and other contaminants that circulate through your HVAC system. This can improve indoor air quality, reduce allergy symptoms, help your equipment run more efficiently (saving energy), and extend the lifespan of your heating and cooling components by preventing dust from clogging motors and coils.
Will duct cleaning reduce my energy bills?
Yes, a thorough cleaning can lower energy costs. When dust and debris line your ducts, your furnace or air conditioner must work harder to push air through the system. Studies show that clean ductwork and clean HVAC components can improve system efficiency by 10–20%, which translates into noticeable savings on your monthly utility bills in Benton’s hot summers and cool winters.
How long does a typical duct cleaning appointment take?
For an average 2,000-square-foot home with one HVAC system, plan on 2–4 hours. Larger homes, multiple systems, or heavily soiled ducts can take 4–6 hours. Our Benton technicians will give you a more precise time estimate after a quick pre-inspection.
Is duct cleaning safe for my HVAC system and my family?
Absolutely. We use negative-pressure vacuums that meet National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) standards, along with soft-bristle brushes to dislodge debris without damaging metal ducts or flexible ductwork. All antimicrobial treatments we apply are EPA-registered and safe for children, pets, and people with respiratory issues.
What does your duct cleaning service include and how much does it cost?
Our comprehensive Benton duct cleaning package includes a pre-inspection, register and return removal, negative-pressure vacuuming of the entire supply and return network, brushing of main trunk lines, cleaning of the blower, plenum, and accessible coils, plus a post-cleaning video verification. Pricing starts at $399 for a single-system home and varies with home size, number of vents, and level of contamination. We provide a firm quote upfront, and multi-service discounts are available when combined with dryer-vent cleaning or seasonal HVAC maintenance.
