How often should air ducts be cleaned in Dallas?+
For most DFW homes, every 3 to 5 years. Sooner (every 2 years) if you have multiple pets, severe allergies, asthma, recent renovation or new construction, a previous smoker in the home, or you can see dust falling out of vents within hours of cleaning.
Are the chemicals safe for kids, pets, and people with chemical sensitivities?+
Yes. We use EPA-registered, low-toxin, eco-friendly antimicrobial solutions. The home is safe to occupy the same day, including for children, pregnant women, and pets. We can also do a fragrance-free option on request.
How long does air duct cleaning take?+
Most single-family Dallas homes take 2 to 4 hours depending on system size, number of vents, and access. Larger estates with 3+ HVAC systems can take 5 to 7 hours.
Will this help with my allergies and asthma?+
Most of our customers report a noticeable reduction in dust, sneezing, and morning congestion within the first week — especially when paired with carpet cleaning. We can't promise a medical outcome, but we can promise the air quality input changes measurably.
Do you clean the dryer vent at the same visit?+
Yes. Dryer vent cleaning is a $99 add-on when bundled with duct cleaning. We strongly recommend it — clogged dryer vents are the #1 cause of laundry-room fires in DFW per Dallas Fire-Rescue data.
How much does air duct cleaning cost in Dallas?+
Most single-system homes are $399–$549. Dual-system homes are $549–$799. Large or 3+ system estates run $799+. We provide a flat written quote before any work starts — no surprise add-ons.
Can you clean the HVAC coil and blower too?+
Visual inspection and surface cleaning of the blower compartment and squirrel cage are included. Deep coil cleaning (acid-wash or chemical clean) is a separate $149 add-on we recommend for systems 7+ years old.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?+
Yes for the walkthrough at start and the photo review at the end. You don't have to stay in the room during cleaning — many customers work from another room or run errands during the middle.
Will this raise or lower the temperature in the house?+
We seal vents during cleaning, so we work with the HVAC off. Most homes feel slightly warmer by the end in summer or cooler in winter. We restore the system before we leave.
Do you service apartments, condos, and rental properties?+
Yes. We work with property managers across Uptown, Downtown Dallas, and Las Colinas. We can coordinate access, provide before/after photos for tenant records, and invoice the property.
What if I have asbestos-wrapped ducts in an older home?+
Some pre-1980 Dallas homes (M Streets, Lakewood, Oak Cliff) have asbestos duct tape. We do not disturb those — we'll inspect, document, and refer you to a licensed asbestos abatement contractor before any cleaning.
Will duct cleaning lower my electric bill?+
It can. Restricted airflow forces the blower to work longer to hit thermostat setpoint. Studies show 5–15% HVAC efficiency improvement after cleaning a previously dirty system — meaningful in DFW summers when AC runs 70%+ of the day.
