Signs You Should Schedule Duct Cleaning Service in Hillsborough

How do you recognize when your ventilation is ready for an air duct cleaning? The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends one every three to five years.

The organization has a simple rule of thumb—if your air ducts look dirty, it probably is.

Despite the fact that much of the ductwork in your home is behind walls or ceilings, you have access to the supply and return vents. Are they covered in dust? Remove a vent cover and inspect the ductwork. Is the metal coated in dust?

Here are several other signs you should schedule an extensive cleaning:

  • Mold is detected in your furnace, air conditioner, heat pump or air handler.
  • Vents release dust when your heat or air conditioning starts.
  • Dust, dirt or pet hair is clogged up in vents.
  • Your home is particularly dusty despite consistent cleaning.
  • Your home was recently constructed, went through a major renovation or dealt with water damage.
  • Energy bills are going up despite thermostat settings staying the same.
