Air Duct Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Air duct cleaning can save you money on your energy bill in several ways. Clean air ducts have better airflow, allowing your HVAC system to work more efficiently and reducing wear and tear on your HVAC unit. Finally, air duct cleaning helps keep your home at a consistent temperature so you don’t have to crank up the thermostat as often.

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.

Use air purifiers, clean regularly, and ensure proper ventilation to reduce pollutants.

Finding mold in an HVAC system is never fun, but the good news is you can clean it and send those spores packing. That being said, hiring a helping hand may be necessary to fully remove the mold and prevent regrowth. Professionals use specialized tools and cleaners, such as antimicrobial solutions and HEPA vacuums, to safely remove mold from ducts, coils, and other components. For small amounts of mold, homeowners can clean visible areas using a mix of water and detergent, but they must wear protective gear and avoid spreading spores.

Attics are particularly dusty because dirt and pollen enter through cracks in your insulation and then sit untouched for long periods of time. To control dust in your home, it's important to vacuum and wipe down attic surfaces whenever you clean. If you use your attic as a finished living space, consider adding an air purifier or speaking with a roofing contractor about possible openings in the top of your home.
