Air Duct Cleaning questions, answered by experts

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends using an EPA-registered disinfectant product to disinfect a house properly. If such a product isn't handy, a strong bleach solution can disinfect high-touch surfaces. Before hiring a professional, be sure to discuss the type of chemicals and disinfectants they plan to use to ensure they’re safe for household use.

If you notice water accumulating in your vent due to a roof or plumbing leak above your ductwork, it's essential to promptly identify the source of the leak and undertake any required repairs without delay. Such leaks have the potential to swiftly result in water damage within your home, ultimately leading to mold and mildew concerns.

Furnace maintenance is crucial to keeping your home warm in the colder months. In addition, it's always best to read your furnace manual for additional information on necessary maintenance to extend its lifespan. Some ways to maintain your furnace include:

Check and change air filters regularly
Inspect the exhaust pipe
Ensure the furnace is well-ventilated
Reduce your home's heating needs
Open all vents
Inspect your furnace for unusual sounds or smells
Clean vents and ductwork

Clean return air vents by using a microfiber cloth soaked in warm, soapy water (or a mild cleaning solution, like vinegar and water). Wipe the interior of the vents, paying close attention to the corners and crevices where dust likes to hide. Use a vacuum brush attachment or handheld model instead of a cloth if desired. Additionally, once or twice a year, remove your air vents and soak them in warm soapy water for 30 minutes before cleaning, drying, and putting them back on.

Yes, it is essential to seal all duct leaks. Even small leaks in your ductwork can lead to energy waste, reduced efficiency, and decreased comfort in your home. Sealing all leaks, whether minor or significant, ensures that your HVAC system operates at its best, delivering conditioned air where needed without losses. This comprehensive approach to duct sealing is crucial for maximizing energy efficiency and maintaining a comfortable indoor environment.
