FAQs
Why should I have my air ducts cleaned by Certified Techs Heating & Air Conditioning in Ten Mile?
Over time, dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and other contaminants accumulate inside your ductwork. Every time your HVAC system runs, a portion of those particles is circulated into your living space, potentially aggravating allergies, asthma, and other respiratory issues. Professional duct cleaning removes this buildup, improving indoor air quality, increasing system airflow, and helping your equipment run more efficiently—often lowering utility bills. Our technicians are NADCA-trained and use industry-approved negative-pressure vacuums and agitation tools to ensure a thorough, safe cleaning.
How often should ducts be cleaned in the Ten Mile area?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends cleaning every 3–5 years, but local factors can shorten that interval. Ten Mile’s warm, humid summers promote mold growth, and our spring pollen counts can be high. If you have pets, smokers, recent renovations, or family members with allergies, you may benefit from cleaning every 2–3 years. We offer free inspections to help you decide the right schedule for your home or business.
What is included in your duct-cleaning process?
1. Pre-inspection: We photograph inside the supply and return ducts, registers, and plenums to document the starting condition. 2. System protection: Drop cloths and corner guards protect flooring and walls; registers are sealed to create proper negative pressure. 3. Source removal: A HEPA-filtered vacuum is connected to the trunk line while rotating brushes and compressed-air whips dislodge debris. 4. Component cleaning: Blower motor, evaporator coil housing, and air handler cabinet are cleaned when accessible. 5. Sanitizing (optional): EPA-registered antimicrobial treatment is fogged through the duct system if microbial growth is present. 6. Post-inspection: We provide after-photos and a written report so you can see the results. All work is completed by fully certified, background-checked technicians.
How long does a typical residential duct cleaning take, and will it disrupt my day?
Most single-zone residential systems in Ten Mile take 2–4 hours. Larger homes or multiple systems can take 5–6 hours. Our crews arrive in clearly marked vehicles, wear shoe covers, and keep noise to a minimum. You can stay in your home during the service; only brief periods require the HVAC to be off. Commercial jobs are scheduled after hours or on weekends to prevent business downtime.
What signs indicate my ducts need cleaning?
• Visible dust or debris blowing from vents when the system starts • Dark lines or streaks around supply registers (filter bypass dust) • Musty or stale odors, especially when the AC or heat comes on • Excessive dust buildup on furniture shortly after cleaning • Recent construction or remodeling that produced drywall dust or sawdust • Allergy or asthma symptoms worsening indoors • HVAC filters clogging sooner than usual If you notice one or more of these, schedule an inspection.
Is duct cleaning safe for my HVAC system and home?
Yes, when performed by trained professionals using proper equipment. We comply with NADCA’s ACR Standard, maintain continuous negative pressure to prevent debris from escaping, and use gentle, non-corrosive cleaning agents. All registers are resealed, and we verify system operation before and after cleaning. Our service is fully insured, and we back the work with a 100% satisfaction guarantee—if you’re not happy, we’ll redo the cleaning at no charge.
