When do I need to clean my ducts?

Keeping your furnace and ducts cleaned has many benefits for your home, health and efficiency. When dust and debris collect in your ductwork, it can be blown into the air you breath every time the furnace kicks in. This can cause harmful health effects, especially for those with asthma and allergies. Regular duct cleaning helps to reduce these allergens from getting into your indoor air. Plus, clearing those clogs will also increase air flow and improve your home’s energy efficiency.

Is it time for a duct cleaning?

Typically, you should have your ducts cleaned every few years. If you’re not sure when the last time your ducts were cleaned, here are some tell-tale signs a cleaning is required:

Blowing dust: You can literally see dust blowing out of your registers when the furnace or air conditioner is running. Look into your registers, if you can see dust, debris or pet hair then it’s time for a duct cleaning.

Suspect pests: You think you might have mice or insects in the ductwork. Indications of this would be scratching sounds coming from the ducts, feces visible from your registers or air intake grates or a terrible smell coming through the heat registers indicating that an animal has died in there.

Health issues: You or someone living in the home are experiencing allergy symptoms outside of allergy season or are having other respiratory issues. It could be from the dust and debris in the air.
