What the heating season leaves in your ducts
In Vancouver the heat is on for a good part of the year, and the air handler moves the same air through the house the whole time. Whatever has settled in the ducts, from drywall dust after a remodel to pet hair, gets blown back out through the vents.
Some late summers, wildfire smoke has made people around Clark County think harder about indoor air as well. Duct cleaning does not replace a good filter, but it clears out what has already collected behind the registers.
A typical visit
- We look at the registers and the ducts we can reach, and tell you what we see.
- We cover the floor around the work area.
- We clean the vents, the accessible duct runs and the register covers.
- We go over the result with you, and point out anything that is not a cleaning job, such as a crushed flex duct or a loose joint.
When it is worth doing
After a remodel or new flooring. When you move into a house and do not know the history. When you see dust collecting at the registers or smell something stale when the system starts. If your ducts run through a crawlspace, which is common in this area, tell us when you book so we can plan for access.
