Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to get my air ducts cleaned?
Over time, dust particles and debris can build up in your home’s air ducts. As the dust and debris accumulate, they can become a home for bacteria and mold spores. Large amounts of dust and debris can also restrict the airflow through the ducts, making your systems less efficient and more costly. But dust and debris aren’t the only things that can make their home in your air ducts. Insects and rodents can invade these spaces, and you may not be able to see or reach the impacted areas on your own.
How often should I get my air ducts cleaned?
In most homes, the National Air Duct Cleaning Association recommends having your air ducts cleaned every three to five years. However, some circumstances may make more frequent cleanings a good idea, such as:
- Living with high-shedding pets
- Living with smokers
- Water damage, such as a flood
- Residents living with allergies or asthma
- After a renovation
Many homeowners are shocked to learn that experts advise you to clean the air ducts in a brand new home. There may be dust and other particulates from the construction, or the new home may have sat unoccupied for some time, so a cleaning is an essential move-in step.
Can I clean my air ducts myself?
It is possible to do some air duct cleaning yourself, but without the specialized equipment professionals use, it is unlikely you’ll be able to reach much of the ducting safely. Without the tools, it could take you up to a full day to get the job done yourself. A professional service has the experience and the tools to do a quick and thorough job. Experienced technicians are prepared to deal with mold, insects, rodents, and other common issues. Homeowners can perform some maintenance themselves, such as regularly changing air filters and dusting the registers.
Can cleaning the air ducts help my asthma?
Yes! Using your heat or air conditioning can move the dust and particles into the air you breathe in your home. Bacteria and mold can easily make a home in the dust deposits inside the ducting. People with asthma and allergies can benefit from an air duct cleaning because it will help to improve the overall air quality of the home. Even residents who do not have asthma or frequent allergy issues can breathe easier with regular air duct cleanings.
Will cleaning my air ducts reduce my energy bill?
Not only will cleaning your air ducts improve your home’s air quality, but it will also have a positive impact on your energy bill. Research from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has shown that your heating and cooling systems may operate more efficiently with regular cleaning, meaning they’ll use less energy to heat and cool your home. Even just a tiny amount of dust accumulated on the fans can have a substantial impact. Another great benefit is that regular air duct maintenance will help your heating and cooling systems last longer before needing repair or replacement.
How do I prepare before my air duct cleaning service?
It’s a good idea to plan for the air duct cleaning. It can be a noisy process, so you may want to move anxious pets ahead of time or plan for family members to be elsewhere during the cleaning. The cleaning process can take several hours, depending on the size of the home and the amount of ducting, or if they encounter anything unusual. Technicians will need to access many of the registers or vents inside the house, so you may want to move furniture to allow easier access. Don’t forget to cover any items that could be damaged by dust from the cleaning process.

Water Heater
The water heater is one part of the plumbing system that most homeowners don’t give much thought to, even though they use it every day. Your water heater provides you with the heated water to bathe with, clean with, and cook with, and should be cared for properly if you expect it to last. The purpose of a tank water heater is to store and heat water in a tank, which typically holds 40 to 50 gallons of water at a time and is kept on reserve until you require it. While taking a shower, running the dishwasher, or heating water in your home, the hot water stored in the tank is released and circulates throughout the house. Call Cyprus Air and we’ll send a technician to estimate the cost of an installation or replacement. Professional installation is just the beginning of proper water heater care, but it’s a very important part. One of the biggest considerations you’ll need to make, after choosing between an electric or a gas-powered water heater, is whether you want a storage tank water heater, or a tankless system.

Air Ducts Cleaning + Repair
What Is Air Duct Cleaning?
When a service professional comes to your home to clean the ducts, the technician uses specialized tools to access all of the ducts in the house. This usually entails using an air whip or an agitating brush to wind its way through the ducts and release dirt buildup on the walls of the duct pipes. A vacuum attached to the ductwork will then suck out all the debris and dirt, leaving your air ducts clean.
When you hire Cyprus Air, Heating and Cooling, we will conduct a thorough inspection and cleaning of your home's ductwork, and you can be confident that the process will adhere to industry-leading standards that are safe for your family and your HVAC equipment.
What's Included?
We will clean all the heating and cooling system components during an HVAC duct cleaning, including:
Entire air duct system
Supply and return ventilation grilles and diffusers
The heat exchanger
Cooling coil
Drip pan
Air handler blower motor
When Should Air Ducts Be Cleaned?
It is recommended that air ducts should be cleaned when there is evidence of vermin or mold or excessive dust in the home.
You move into a new home.
You move into a new construction home.
Airflow in the HVAC system is a problem.
Home occupants suffer from serious allergies, and other steps have already been taken to alleviate symptoms.
Don't put your ductwork at risk. HVAC systems use more energy to operate when they’re dirty. Failure to clean your ductwork can result in more dirt and debris circulating through your home, lowering the quality of the air within your home.
