Air Duct Cleaning questions, answered by experts

As a general guideline, the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends cleaning air ducts every three to five years. However, the ideal frequency depends on your specific circumstances. You may need more frequent cleanings if you have pets, household members with allergies or respiratory issues, use a wood-burning fireplace, or live in a dusty area. Other signs that it's time for a cleaning include visible mold, musty odors, poor airflow, or if you've recently completed a home renovation. While the EPA states that ducts only need cleaning when these issues arise, regular maintenance can help prevent problems and improve indoor air quality.

While you can attempt to remove mold from ductwork using a mixture of water, baking soda, and laundry detergent, flexible ducts are fragile and may tear when you scrub at the mold to remove it. If you suspect mold is growing in your flexible ductwork, it’s best to contact a professional for help.

To clean an HVAC fresh air intake, start by going outside and figuring out where the intake is located on your home. Then, take a wire brush, rag, or wet/dry vacuum cleaner and use it to remove the built-up dirt and debris that’s accumulated on the external part of the intake.

Dirty filters are almost always the cause of poor airflow, so they should be regularly cleaned and then replaced as needed. The fan blades can also get dirty, so they should be cleaned when the unit is turned off. Make sure that the outdoor area around the back of the unit is unobstructed. Trees, shrubs, trash, and other objects could be too close to your unit.

Focus on cleaning the air after you’ve finished cleaning surfaces. Use air purifiers, moving them as necessary from room to room. The air filters should be cleaned or replaced, depending on the type of filters you have. Clean the air ducts by yourself or by hiring a pro. Finally, open doors and windows to ensure the space is properly ventilated.
