FAQs
What exactly is a complimentary camera inspection for heating and air-conditioning ductwork?
Our complimentary camera inspection is a no-cost service where a trained technician snakes a high-resolution video camera through your home’s supply and return ducts. The live footage lets us check for dust buildup, mold, pest activity, disconnected joints, or physical damage that may be reducing HVAC efficiency or degrading indoor air quality.
Why is duct cleaning important for Elizabethton homeowners?
In the humid Appalachian climate, dust, pollen, and biological growth can accumulate quickly inside ductwork. Dirty ducts restrict airflow, force your HVAC system to work harder, and circulate allergens throughout the house. Proper cleaning can restore system efficiency, lower energy bills, and improve overall indoor air quality—especially important for residents with allergies, asthma, or pets.
How does the camera inspection determine whether my ducts actually need cleaning?
During the inspection we capture real-time video of the entire duct interior. You can watch the monitor alongside the technician and see any significant dust layers, debris, or microbial growth. If the ducts look relatively clean, we will recommend postponing cleaning to save you money; if they look dirty, we’ll show you where and explain the severity so you can make an informed decision.
Will the inspection or subsequent duct cleaning damage my HVAC system or drywall?
No. The inspection camera is small, flexible, and designed specifically for HVAC applications, so it won’t scratch metal or kink flex ducts. If you opt for cleaning, we use negative-pressure vacuum equipment and soft-bristle rotary brushes that scrub the ducts from the inside without cutting into walls or ceilings. All access points are sealed afterward to factory standards.
How long does the whole process take and do I need to be home?
The complimentary camera inspection typically takes 30–45 minutes for an average single-story home and up to 60 minutes for larger or multi-level properties. You or an authorized adult must be present so we can review the live footage and discuss findings. If cleaning is approved, plan on an additional 2–4 hours depending on duct length and complexity.
Are there any hidden costs or obligations tied to the free inspection?
Absolutely not. The inspection is 100% free and comes with no obligation to purchase duct cleaning or any other service. After we show you the footage, you decide whether to proceed. If you choose cleaning, we’ll provide a transparent, up-front quote that includes labor, sanitizer application, and post-cleaning camera verification—no surprise fees later.
