Onions, peppers, fish, broccoli, and fried chicken taste great—but the leftover smells can be less than appetizing. Even if these foods are cooked perfectly, the odors they leave behind can linger well beyond the dishes being cleared and washed. Fortunately, you can use the same tips to get a burnt smell out of the house and remove stubborn food odors. In addition, make sure you’re keeping your fridge clear of odor-smelling foods for too long to keep the stench from invading other foods. 

You should plan to change your AC unit's filter every one to three months, depending on the manufacturer's recommendations. You should also clean the coils at least once per year, but if you have pets or someone in your household has allergies, you might need to clean them more often. Fortunately, many pros will clean the coils and change the filter for you during an inspection, which you should schedule once or twice per year.

A professional air duct cleaning should not leave your house dusty. Certified technicians use specialized equipment and containment methods, such as high-powered vacuums and sealing off vents, to prevent debris from spreading. They also use drop cloths to protect your home and are responsible for cleaning up any mess before they leave. While a small amount of dust might be noticeable immediately after, especially if there was heavy buildup, it should settle within a few hours. In contrast, DIY duct cleaning is often much messier because it's difficult to contain the dislodged debris without professional-grade tools. Ultimately, a key benefit of a professional cleaning is having less dust in your home.

Spring and fall are the best times to hire a pro to clean ductwork. It’s a good idea to clean and maintain your ducts before the HVAC system will be busy regulating temperatures day and night. Scheduling a cleaning in the spring and fall ensures that the system will be at peak efficiency during the summer and winter.
