5 Signs You Need Duct Cleaning
Is your HVAC system not working like it used to? It might be time to schedule professional duct cleaning. Here are five signs that mean your ducts could use some attention.- Increased allergy symptoms: If you or your family members are experiencing more allergy symptoms than usual, such as sneezing, coughing, or itchy eyes, it could be due to pollutants circulating through your ductwork. Duct cleaning can help alleviate these symptoms by removing allergens.
- Mold or mildew growth: Mold or mildew in your ducts is a serious concern that requires prompt attention. Not only does it contribute to poor air quality, but it can also pose serious health risks. Duct cleaning can effectively eliminate mold and prevent its recurrence.
- Strange odors: Unpleasant odors from your vents, such as musty or moldy smells, indicate the presence of contaminants in your ducts. These odors can permeate your living space and affect your indoor air quality.
- Insect or rodent infestation: If you notice signs of insect or rodent activity in or around your ductwork, such as droppings or nests, it’s essential to address the issue quickly. Duct cleaning removes the pests and eliminates any debris or contaminants they may have left behind.
- Visible dust buildup: If you notice dust gathering around your vents or on furniture despite regular cleaning, it’s a clear sign that your ducts need attention. Dust accumulation not only affects air quality but also reduces the efficiency of your HVAC system.

Duct Cleaning FAQs
What is Duct Cleaning?
How Often Should I Schedule a Duct Cleaning?
What Is the Duct Cleaning Process?
The highly-trained technicians at Hawkins Service Company begin by setting up their state-of-the-art equipment and using drop cloths to protect all the floors and furniture in the home. They will then access the HVAC system through registers and access holes throughout your home, starting from the furthest supply point. This will force the debris toward the mainline. The blower, air handler, and indoor coil are cleaned, and then the technicians will install new filters. The last step involves going through a final checklist before cleaning up.
What Are the Benefits of Having Your Ducts Professionally Cleaned?
Because your air ducts act as the circulatory system for your home, it’s important to ensure the air moving throughout is clean and free of dirt, debris, and other unwanted contaminants. Having the ductwork in your home cleaned by a team of professionals regularly has several benefits, including:
- Improves airflow throughout your home
- Kills germs and other bacteria
- Removes dangerous mold and fungi
- Provides asthma and allergy relief
- Circulates cleaner, healthier air
- Removes foul, musty odors
- Helps your HVAC system operate at peak energy efficiency
- Reduces the potential for mold and bacteria growth
Will You Get a Lot of Dust in My House During the Cleaning Process?
We only use state-of-the-art air duct cleaning equipment and our high-powered vacuum trucks while cleaning your ducts. This creates a negative air pressure throughout the HVAC system, which removes all debris and dust particles directly into the truck.
My Ductwork Is Flexible, Will Your Service Damage My Ducts?
No, our team of expert technicians is fully equipped to perform duct cleaning services on flexible ductwork without damaging it. Most ductwork in new construction homes in Florida is flexible, which is why we use the negative air method.
Will We Need to Leave the House While You Clean Our Ducts?
You don’t need to leave the house while we complete the duct cleaning process. All the air coming out of our equipment is filtered, and the filters ensure nothing harmful escapes into your home. We use natural disinfectants to sanitize your ducts, which are harmless to humans and pets.
How Long Will It Take to Clean the Ductwork in My Home?
Our air duct cleaning process should take no more than a few hours, depending on the size of your home and the layout of your ductwork. Two trained technicians can take between three to five hours to clean the ductwork in an average-size home.
Can Duct Contamination Really Make Me Sick?
Yes, the debris, mold, bacteria, fungi, and dust particles in your ductwork can make you sick. In our experience, after we sanitize a home, we receive exceptional feedback about how the residents’ allergies have improved, they’re getting better sleep, and they have experienced many more benefits from our professional air duct cleaning service.
