🌀 Air Duct Cleaning
Q: How often should I have my air ducts cleaned?
A: We recommend every 3 to 5 years for most homes, but you may need it sooner if you have pets, allergies, recent renovations, or visible dust and debris.
Q: Will duct cleaning help with allergies or asthma?
A: Absolutely! Removing dust, pet dander, mold spores, and other allergens from your duct system can greatly improve indoor air quality and reduce allergy and asthma symptoms.
Q: How long does air duct cleaning take?
A: A typical home takes 2–4 hours, depending on the size of the house and the condition of the ducts.
Air Duct Sanitizing
Q: What’s the difference between duct cleaning and duct sanitizing?
A: Cleaning removes debris and buildup. Sanitizing disinfects the ducts to kill bacteria, mold spores, and viruses—ideal after a mold issue, illness, or musty odor.
Q: Is duct sanitizing safe for kids and pets?
A: Yes! We use EPA-registered, non-toxic sanitizers that are safe for your entire family.
🔥 Dryer Vent Cleaning
Q: How often should I clean my dryer vent?
A: At least once a year. More often if you do frequent laundry, have a long or hard-to-reach vent line, or notice longer drying times.
Q: Can a clogged dryer vent really cause a fire?
A: Yes. Lint buildup is highly flammable and one of the leading causes of house fires. Regular cleaning is essential for safety.
🎥 Video Camera Inspections
Q: Why would I need a video inspection?
A: To identify hidden damage, blockages, mold, or buildup in air ducts or chimneys. It’s also great for before-and-after comparisons.
Q: Can I see the video footage?
A: Absolutely! We’ll walk you through everything we find and show you the problem areas before any work begins.
Mold Remediation
Q: What causes mold to grow in air ducts or crawlspaces?
A: Moisture and poor ventilation. Mold thrives in dark, damp environments—like unsealed crawlspaces, attics, or ducts with condensation.
Q: Is mold dangerous?
A: Yes. Mold can trigger allergies, asthma, and respiratory issues. Certain types (like black mold) can be especially harmful if left untreated.
🔒 Crawlspace Encapsulation
Q: What is crawlspace encapsulation?
A: It’s the process of sealing your crawlspace with a vapor barrier, insulation, and sometimes a dehumidifier to block moisture, mold, and pests.
Q: Does encapsulating my crawlspace save energy?
A: Yes! It reduces humidity and heat loss, helping your HVAC system run more efficiently and keeping your home more comfortable year-round.
Insulation Services
Q: How do I know if my insulation needs to be replaced?
A: Signs include uneven temperatures, high energy bills, visible damage, or insulation that’s wet, moldy, or infested.
Q: What kind of insulation do you install?
A: We offer high-performance blown-in fiberglass or cellulose insulation—perfect for attics, walls, and crawlspaces.
