Q: What should you do if there’s a dead animal in your air ducts?

• <div><p>If you discover a dead animal in your air ducts, address the issue promptly to prevent unpleasant odors and potential health hazards. Turn off your HVAC system to prevent further spread of contaminants and contact a professional HVAC technician or pest control specialist to remove the animal and clean the affected area. They have the tools and expertise to handle the situation, including removing and disinfecting contaminated ductwork. The technician will inspect the ducts for any damage or other issues that might have allowed the animal to enter. </p></div>

Q: How do you maintain a forced-air heating system?

• <div><p>If you have a forced-air heating system, it&rsquo;s important to have it professionally inspected at least once per year. During one of these visits, your contractor will look at all of the components of your HVAC system, including your furnace or heat pump, air conditioner, and ducts. On average, an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hvac-inspection-cost.htm">HVAC inspection costs</a> $300. It&rsquo;s also important to perform basic maintenance between inspections, such as changing your filters and cleaning dust from around your vents.</p></div>

Q: How do you unclog an air duct?

• <div><p>To unclog an air duct, you&rsquo;ll need to hire an air duct specialist to clean the ductwork. Air ducts are too tricky for a homeowner to access without special equipment, so a pro must thoroughly clear out a clog caused by dust and dirt buildup. However, if furnishings block your air ducts, you can move the furniture away from the vents to get the system to work correctly again.</p></div>

Q: What are the best air duct cleaning methods?

• <div><p>The best air duct cleaning methods involve removing the debris or dust in the ductwork through the use of a vacuum. Air duct pros refer to this method as negative pressure cleaning. To knock debris loose inside the ductwork, you may need to use a hand-operated brush or a rotary brush. You then can use the vacuum to suck up the loose debris and remove them from the ducts. If mold is present, pros may use a chemical spray to try to kill any bacteria or mold inside the system.</p></div>

Q: Where should return air vents be located?

• <div><p>Return air vents can be located in any room of your house, but it's essential to choose the location strategically. Placing a return vent in a central area, such as a hallway or a larger living space, is more effective for balanced airflow and temperature control throughout your home. However, factors like the HVAC system's design, your specific heating and cooling needs, and the accessibility of ductwork may influence the optimal placement of a return air vent.</p></div>
