Air Duct Cleaning in Summit, NJ

The Air In Your Home Is Only As Clean As the Ducts Carrying It

Your heating and cooling system is responsible for moving air through your home dozens of times every single day. The system pulls air from different areas of your home and then returns that air through ducts that travel throughout your home’s walls, floors and ceilings. While most people think about the air that comes out of the vents in their homes, almost nobody thinks about what accumulates within those ducts over time.

At The Vent Medic in Summit, NJ and the surrounding areas, air duct cleaning in Summit is half of what we do. We take the same care and attention to duct cleaning as we do with any other HVAC system in the home. Call us when you’re ready to have your ducts professionally cleaned.

What Actually Settles Into Ductwork Over Time

Air is moved through ductwork constantly over time. That continuous movement of air within those ducts results in various types of debris to settle within those ducts over time. In addition to dust, other common types of debris that can accumulate within ductwork include:

1. Pet dander
2. Pollen
3. Construction debris from any renovation work that has been performed in the home
4. Insulation particles
5. Mold spores (if the duct system has been exposed to moisture)

All of the air debris that has settled within your home over time with ducts being skipped has the potential to be redistributed into the living areas of your home with each cycle of your HVAC system. Anyone with allergies or respiratory issues feels the effects of this worse than others in the home who are breathing the same air. That’s why air duct cleaning in Summit is needed.

Being Straight With You About What Air Duct Cleaning in Summit Does and Does Not Do

We will be straight with you about what duct cleaning will and will not accomplish for your home. Many air duct cleaning in Summit companies over-sell the benefits of such a task, but we will not do that with your home. We want to give you a clear picture of what will happen with your duct system after our visit and what benefits you will receive from a thorough duct cleaning.

Air duct cleaning in Summit will remove debris that has accumulated within the duct system. It will reduce the amount of dust that circulates through your home. Additionally, your HVAC system will be cleaned to increase its efficiency and provide you with an accurate view of the condition of your duct system.

It will not eliminate the source of the contaminants in your home. If you have a moisture issue in your home that results in mold growth, duct cleaning is part of the solution but not the whole solution. It is important to give you an accurate picture of your duct system and the issues that face the system to show you the complete picture of your system. This is how we choose to operate. Most air duct cleaning in Summit companies do not offer this level of care and transparency with their customers, but we do.

What the Job Looks Like From Start to Finish

When our air duct cleaning in Summit technician shows up at your home, we will first do a walk-through of your duct system to identify each component and the condition of each part of your duct system. From there, we will begin using high powered vacuuming equipment and other tools to ensure that all of the debris within the duct system is removed.

All parts of your HVAC system will be vacuumed to provide you with a thorough duct cleaning. The supply and return ducts, the registers, the grilles and the HVAC system will all be vacuumed. Finally, after completing the duct cleaning, we will perform one last walk-through of your system to ensure that all components are clear. We can show you what we removed from your system if you would like. We will give you a complete account of what was found within your system and what we did for you before we leave your home.

Signs That Your Ductwork Is Overdue for a Cleaning

If you live in a home that is several years old, and your ductwork has never had air duct cleaning in Summit, that is one of the reasons to have it cleaned. If you recently completed a renovation in your home, the construction debris likely entered your duct system and must be removed.

Additional reasons for your duct system may be overdue for a cleaning include noticing dust accumulating on surfaces in your home in just a few days after vacuuming those areas, noticing debris within your supply registers, musty smells from your HVAC system and family members with allergies or sinus symptoms.

While none of these reasons by itself indicate that your duct system has a problem, any of these reasons are enough to contact us to have a professional air duct cleaning in Summit technician look at your system.
