    After Renovations<\/h3>

    Drywall dust travels everywhere and settles in the ductwork. This is the single most worthwhile reason to have ducts cleaned.<\/p><\/article>

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>

    After Moving In<\/h3>

    You have no idea what the previous household put through that system. A clean start is reasonable, especially with pets or allergies in the picture.<\/p><\/article>

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>

    Visible Debris<\/h3>

    If you can see dust and lint building up at the registers, the system is circulating it. That is a clear case rather than a maybe.<\/p><\/article>

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>

    After Pest Activity<\/h3>

    Rodents or insects in the ductwork leave more than mess behind. Cleaning is the right response, along with sealing the entry point.<\/p><\/article>

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>

    Newly Built Homes<\/h3>

    Construction debris in the ducts is extremely common and almost never dealt with before handover.<\/p><\/article>

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>

    Persistent Dust<\/h3>

    If dusting never seems to help, the ductwork is a reasonable suspect \u2014 though the filter and the blower are worth checking first.<\/p><\/article><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Duct cleaning is often sold as a cure for problems it does not solve. If rooms heat unevenly, that is usually a balancing or sizing issue, not dirt. If the system is short-cycling, that is a control or capacity problem. If your bills are high, the filter, the charge and the insulation matter far more.<\/p>

    We would rather diagnose the actual cause than take money for a service that leaves you with the same complaint. If duct cleaning is not the answer, we will say so and tell you what is.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    For a typical Ottawa home with no renovations and no pets, every five to seven years is plenty. More often than that is rarely justified.<\/p>

    Changing the filter on schedule does more for your air and your equipment than frequent duct cleaning ever will, and it costs a fraction as much.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Most homes take two to four hours depending on the size of the system and the number of registers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    It should not be. Equipment is sealed to the ductwork and registers are covered. Any technician who leaves dust in your rooms has done it wrong.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    No. For most homes every five to seven years is enough unless there has been renovation, pest activity or a move.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Usually not. That is normally a balancing or sizing problem \u2014 we can look at that instead, and it is often the cheaper fix.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
