When it comes to air duct cleaning, the amount of time it takes to complete the job depends on the size of your air conditioning system. Generally, it takes between three to five hours for our expert technicians to properly clean your air duct system, including the return side, the supply side, the fan compartment, the fan wheel, and the return tank. Cleaning air ducts can take anywhere from an hour to a full day or longer for commercial heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. A standard cleaning of the air ducts would last two to three hours and would cover the air conditioning unit, the main duct, the ventilation grilles of the rooms and the air ducts themselves.
If your home has multiple floors, it will take longer to clean all of the air ducts. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends cleaning ducts after a vermin infestation or water damage, or if you see or smell mold. The amount of time it takes to clean the air ducts can depend on the extent of the duct system, the age of the air ducts, and whether they have ever been cleaned. When done right, professional duct cleaning will effectively remove dust from all surfaces inside the ducts.
Health Canada's Pest Control Regulatory Agency (PMRA) regulates chemical and biological cleaners specifically for use in cleaning heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. Cheap air duct cleaners don't have a negative air system suitable for sweeping and treating all lines and trunk lines, so they never fully clean the air conditioning system. If you hire a carpet cleaner or a cheap air duct cleaner with a coupon, they'll be in and out of your house without properly sealing ventilation grilles or protecting carpets and home furnishings from vacuum hoses. As long as you are using the forced air heating or cooling system, the ducts will continue to collect dust as before. A competent, NADCA-certified duct cleaning company will always take the time necessary to properly seal ventilation grilles, keep their equipment clean, and protect carpets and home furnishings from vacuum hoses. Larger homes, which are usually more than three thousand square feet, take about five hours to receive a full air duct cleaning service.
