Can I close vents to deflect air?

• <div><p>No, because closing air vents could damage your HVAC system. Closing a vent will only keep the air in the duct, not redirect it to a room or zone where you’d prefer it to be. That air will become trapped within your ductwork, creating a buildup of pressure that can damage the ducts and cause leaks. </p></div>

How do I know if my air ducts need to be cleaned?

• <div><p>If you have dirty vent covers, clogged air filters, noisy air ducts, or weak airflow, it might be <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-signs-its-time-find-air-duct-cleaner.htm">time to get your air ducts cleaned</a>. You should also call an HVAC professional if you notice any visible mold or believe that there are rodents or insects in your ductwork. Abnormally high energy bills can also be a sign of dirty ducts.</p></div>

Q: How do I get rid of mold in my furnace?

• <div><p>Before you start removing mold, turn off the furnace. Clean away any visible mold from accessible areas using a mixture of water and mild detergent. Change air filters and check for moisture sources like leaks. If the problem persists or it's widespread, hire a local HVAC company for professional cleaning.</p></div>

Q: Will smoke odors go away on their own?

• <div><p>Most smoke odors will subside over time if you air out the materials holding onto them, but they often won&rsquo;t completely go away on their own. If you&rsquo;re dealing with stubborn smoke odors on furniture and building materials, begin by deep cleaning and deodorizing with baking soda or activated charcoal. You may need to repeat treatment. If that doesn&rsquo;t work, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-to-call-for-smoke-damage.htm">hire a smoke damage restoration company</a> for help.</p></div>

Q: Why do my vents keep getting moldy?

• <div><p>Several factors contribute to the persistent growth of mold in vents, with excess moisture being the most common culprit. Consistent mold formation in vents indicates an ongoing moisture problem within the HVAC system or its surroundings, likely caused by condensation on cool surfaces in areas with high humidity. Moisture accumulation can also result from leaks in ductwork, inadequate ventilation, or insufficient insulation, creating an environment favorable for mold growth. Regular inspections, addressing potential sources of moisture, maintaining proper ventilation, and routine HVAC maintenance can help prevent the recurrence of mold in vents. If the issue persists, seek professional assistance to identify and rectify the underlying problems.</p></div>

"Hoover’s was the ONLY one to get back to me and rather quickly. I decided to go ahead and use them. Aaron and Marcos were very professional and polite. Cleaned my HVAC ducts, exhaust vents, and my dryer vent (which was really dirty btw) in a timely manner and put everything back on when they were done. They cleaned up after themselves and even covered my stuff with plastic as they went. They took off their shoes as they came in and put down towels on the corners of furniture and the walls to avoid damaging them. Not sure if they were the cheapest option but they were the best option in my opinion. I’d definitely use them again. Thank you Marshall for answering me back and Aaron and Marcos for taking care of my vents."
