All households have dust, no matter how diligent they are in their cleaning habits. Some of that dust is airborne and makes it through the HVAC filter and into the system. Much of that dust eventually settles in your ducts, where the air pressure is lower. To avoid any problems from that accumulation, Mountain View Heating recommends professional duct cleaning in Sisters, OR. Regular air duct cleaning will improve air quality in the home and avoid airflow problems.
"My father utilized their services for years, and I recently purchased his property and am happy to continue doing business with them. They are always professional and courteous. I have also had two surprise emergency issues, one on a weekend, and they made time to come out and get my issues resolved. Highest recommendation."
How often do you need professional air duct cleaning? The average U.S. household needs its ducts cleaned every three to five years. That said, experts don’t recommend scheduling cleaning on a set timeline. The amount of dust that accumulates can vary from home to home and year to year. A better approach is to schedule a duct inspection at least every other year. A duct inspection involves the use of a high-definition camera. Using that camera and a monitor, our technician can check every aspect of your ducts. There can be issues other than dust, such as air leakage. Leakage can result in the loss of between 20% and 30% or more of your conditioned or heated air. If your technician notices such problems, they may recommend sealing and/or repairs. If your ducts are old or in poor condition, they may recommend replacement. Your technician can also advise you on whether duct cleaning is necessary yet.
Duct cleaning involves the use of a high-powered vacuuming and pressure system. Some systems are relatively small and portable, while others are larger and mounted in a truck. In either case, there’s a large, flexible hose that your technician can navigate through your ducts. There are also tools to deal with stubborn gunk, including scrapers, brushes, and air nozzles. A common concern is whether dust can get into the home. It can’t, for several reasons. These systems create negative air pressure, so the dust flows in only one direction. Air duct cleaning equipment has integrated air filtration. We also put covers over the vents as an added layer of protection.
