We get lots of calls and emails regarding duct cleaning, yet we don’t seem to do many duct cleanings. This is an important part of your HVAC system maintenance. The air you breathe travels through the duct system. If you’ve never had a duct cleaning, and your home is 15 years old – that is 15 years worth of dirt and debris built up.

If you have someone that suffers from asthma or allergies or other breathing issues, what is built up in the duct system could be affecting their symptoms. Does your house seem to get dusty all the time? Stuffy nose after being inside all day?

There are no scientific studies on duct cleaning improving air quality. In my opinion, it has to. Just look at the before and after photos. The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends getting the ducts cleaned every 3-5 years. Duct cleaning starts at $299, but is based on the total number of vents in your home. Generally, a duct cleaning appointment takes half a day, but can take longer depending on the number of vents and the size of your home. As part of the duct cleaning service, we do a complimentary dryer vent inspection, and can clean the dryer vent for an additional charge. We also offer duct sanitization at an additional cost. If this has convinced you that you are in need of a duct cleaning, call Dr. P’s HVAC at (502) 758-9982 to schedule.
