Truck-mounted Vacuums
Truck-mounted Vacuums | Duct Cleaning | Heating and Air Conditioning | Greenback
Imagine the difference a truly powerful vacuum can make inside the hidden passages of your Greenback home. HEP rolls up with truck-mounted units that generate commercial-grade suction, pulling dust, pet dander, and stubborn debris all the way from the deepest reaches of your HVAC system to the tank outside—never back into your living space. Our certified technicians seal off registers, create negative pressure, and finish with an antimicrobial fog that leaves every vent smelling fresh and flowing freely.
Homeowners notice the results right away: cleaner air, fewer allergy triggers, and a system that can heat and cool more efficiently. Whether you’ve just remodeled, moved in, or you’re simply tired of seeing dust reappear after every sweep, schedule our duct cleaning today and feel the comfort of breathing easier tomorrow.
FAQs
Why should I choose truck-mounted vacuum duct cleaning instead of portable equipment?
Truck-mounted vacuums generate up to 10,000 CFM of suction—up to 10 × more than most portable units—so they can remove heavy accumulations of dust, pet dander, construction debris, and microbial growth in a single pass. Because the debris is pulled directly into a sealed containment chamber on the truck, nothing is exhausted back into your Greenback home. The stronger, continuous airflow also lets us clean larger ducts, trunk lines, and plenums more thoroughly, which means cleaner air, better HVAC efficiency, and longer intervals between cleanings.
How does your truck-mounted duct cleaning process work?
1. Inspection: We begin with a camera inspection to document the current condition of your air ducts. 2. Seal & protect: Supply and return grills are covered, and drop cloths are laid to protect floors and furnishings. 3. Negative pressure: A 10-inch hose is connected from the truck to your main trunk line; the truck-mounted vacuum places your entire system under continuous negative pressure. 4. Agitation: Technicians use pneumatic whips and rotating brushes to dislodge buildup on interior duct walls while the vacuum pulls loosened debris outside. 5. Sanitizing (optional): EPA-registered antimicrobial fog can be applied to inhibit future microbial growth. 6. Final review: We perform a post-cleaning camera sweep and provide before/after images so you can see the results.
How long does a typical duct cleaning visit take in Greenback?
For an average 2,000- to 2,500-square-foot home with one HVAC system, plan on 2 to 3 hours. Larger homes, multiple systems, extremely dirty ducts, or add-ons such as dryer-vent cleaning can extend the visit to 4–6 hours. We schedule morning and afternoon slots to minimize disruption and will give you a precise window when you book.
Will duct cleaning really improve my HVAC efficiency and indoor air quality?
Yes. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that 25–40 % of the energy used to heat or cool a home is wasted when contaminants build up inside ductwork. By removing that buildup, airflow resistance drops and your blower motor works less, saving energy and extending equipment life. Clients in Greenback typically report less household dust, fewer allergy flare-ups, and even lower utility bills after service. Clean ducts also protect sensitive HVAC components like the evaporator coil, reducing the chance of costly repairs.
How often should I schedule air-duct cleaning in Greenback’s climate?
Industry guidelines suggest every 3–5 years, but local factors matter. Greenback’s pollen-heavy springs, humid summers, and higher-than-average indoor wood-burning during winter can all accelerate buildup. Homes with shedding pets, smokers, recent renovations, or residents with allergies should consider cleaning every 2–3 years. We offer complimentary inspections to help you determine the right frequency.
Do I need to do anything to prepare before your technicians arrive?
Just a few simple steps help us work efficiently: • Clear access to supply and return vents, the HVAC unit, and the attic or crawlspace if applicable. • Secure pets in a separate room for their safety and ours. • Make sure driveway space is available for our vacuum truck (about the size of a large van). • If you have smart thermostats or zoning controls, note any custom settings so we can return them afterward. That’s it—our technicians bring protective footwear, corner guards, and all necessary equipment to keep your home clean while we work.
