Duct Cleaning

Everything your furnace and air conditioner move passes through the same ductwork, year after year. Cleaning it out is one of those jobs nobody thinks about until they see what comes out of the vents.

When duct cleaning is worth doing

It is not a job every house needs every year. It earns its money in specific situations:

  • After a renovation, when drywall and sawdust have been pulled through the system
  • Moving into an older house where the history of the ductwork is unknown
  • Registers that blow visible dust when the system kicks on
  • Evidence of mice or insects in the ducts
  • Allergies that flare when the heat or air is running

What actually happens

The system is put under negative pressure and the runs are agitated and pulled clean back to the trunk, supply and return both. Wiping the register covers is not duct cleaning, and it is worth knowing the difference before paying anyone for it.

Common questions

How often should ducts be cleaned?

For most homes it is an occasional job rather than a scheduled one. If nobody can remember it ever being done, that is usually the sign it is worth doing once, and then only again when something changes in the house.
