Air Duct Cleaning questions, answered by experts

You will know if your furnace needs cleaning if your furnace seems to be working less efficiently than normal. You may notice your bedroom is chilly, but the living room is extremely warm, or perhaps the furnace isn’t heating the house properly at all. The furnace may also make weird noises, like bangs or whistles, or emit a rubbery or smoky smell when it is dirty. Of course, these symptoms could also be signs of other issues, so call in an HVAC pro to take a look as soon as possible.

You have two different types of air vents in your home: supply and return air vents. Your supply air vents are responsible for pushing air into your home. Meanwhile, return air vents draw warmer air back into the ductwork to condition it by removing the warm molecules from it. Both types of vents are necessary to a working HVAC system and a comfortable home.

Ozone smoke removal makes use of an ozone generator to remove odors from building materials and belongings. Ozone is an unstable element that will oxidize organic compounds, so it can neutralize the odor when it interacts with smoke particles. Ozone can be an effective way to remove smoke smell from wood furniture, but it’s best to leave this treatment to a professional. Living in a house with smoke damage isn’t always safe, but improper use of an ozone generator can also be dangerous to your health.

In some cases, duct cleaning may make a mess in your house. For example, if there’s a significant buildup of dirt and debris inside your ducts, it can come out of your vents and spread around your home during a cleaning. However, professional duct cleaners know how to minimize the mess (and should clean it up before they leave).

You can do simple maintenance to keep it clean and operating in peak condition. Start by replacing the furnace air filters as directed–often, this is once every month or every three. Next, clean your air vents once a month, as they can help you see how much dirty air filters through. If you notice them becoming dirtier, you should have your ducts cleaned. With flexible ducting being more susceptible to tears, you’ll want to hire a pro to do the work for you.
