You should consider duct cleaning if:
-
You notice a musty, moldy, or foul smell coming from vents
-
You see clear dust buildup when you look inside registers
-
You’ve recently moved and don’t know if ducts were ever cleaned
-
You’ve had construction or major renovations (drywall dust is a big one)
-
You have pets and notice faster dust buildup
-
Someone in the home has allergies/asthma or air quality concerns
OUR 4-STEP DEEP CLEAN PROCESS
We treat your home with the same care as a high-end renovation.
Preparation & Protection
We arrive in uniform, use protective floor runners, and seal off every register in your home to ensure all suction is concentrated exactly where we are cleaning.
The High-Power Scrub
Using specialized agitation tools (whips and brushes), we physically "scrub" the inside of your duct walls to break loose stuck-on debris that air alone cannot move.
Truck-Mount Extraction
Our industrial-strength vacuum pulls all dust, hair, and construction debris directly out of your home and into our truck. No dust is recirculated into your living space.
Final Inspection
We perform a final walkthrough of your system to ensure everything is sealed, the furnace is cycling correctly, and you are 100% satisfied with the results.
THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE HIRING A DUCT CLEANER
Not all duct cleaning is the same. Many “discount” companies use bait-and-switch pricing or inadequate equipment. At Donaldson, we believe in doing it right the first time.
-
Beware of Unsolicited Offers
Be wary of companies that contact you out of the blue via phone, door-to-door, or Facebook groups. Reputable companies like Donaldson don't use high-pressure cold calling—we rely on our reputation and transparent booking.
-
The "Too Cheap to Be True" Red Flag
A professional, quality cleaning takes hours and requires expensive, heavy-duty equipment. If a price seems impossibly low (like $99 whole-home specials), it’s often a "bait-and-switch" to get in the door and charge you more.
-
Know Your System
To perform a real cleaning, your home must have a furnace/air handler, ductwork, and vents. If a company doesn't ask about your specific HVAC setup, they aren't planning a thorough job.
-
Process Transparency
Make sure the company can explain exactly how they remove debris. We don't just "blow air around"—we use high-powered agitation and truck-mounted suction to physically pull dirt out of your home.
-
Avoid "Per-Vent" Pricing
Some companies quote a low price and then double it once they count your vents. Our pricing is upfront and all-inclusive.
-
Check for Professionalism
Our technicians are fully insured, background-checked, and part of the Donaldson team—never random sub-contractors in unmarked vans.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
When vents and ductwork are dirty, a thorough cleaning can help your home feel fresher and reduce the stuff you don’t want circulating
- Helps reduce dust, hair and debris buildup in vents
- Can help remove stale odors caused by trapped debris
- Supports cleaner HVAC operation by reducing heavy dust load in the system
- Can help reduce lint-related fire risk when dryer vent cleaning is added (recommended separately)
Most residential cleanings take between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size of the home and the complexity of the HVAC system.
We ask that you clear a small path around your registers and the furnace. Our technicians will handle the rest, using corner guards to protect your walls and furniture.
No. Because we use high-power suction and seal your vents, the dust is pulled directly into our truck. Your home will be cleaner when we leave than when we arrived.
- Cleaning of supply and return duct lines
- Cleaning of registers and vents (as accessible)
- Attention to main trunk lines
- Professional vacuum + agitation tools used to remove buildup
- A straightforward walkthrough of what was completed and any notes we observed
- Dryer ven cleaning Optional add-on
Your furnace and air conditioner move air through your home all year, along with dust, dander, hair and other particles. While the furncae filter catches a lot at the unit, dust can still settle in parts of the duct system where airflow is weaker (often called “dead spots”). Over time, that buildup can add up.
How to prepare for your duct cleaning
To do the job properly, we need clear access to vents and key service points.
-
Make sure vents and registers are clear of clutter
-
You may need to move furniture or items near vents
-
Some vents may be in closets or behind shelving — you may need to clear access
-
If you have pets, consider keeping them comfortable in a separate space during the service
Dryer vent cleaning (recommended add-on)
Dryer vents collect lint over time — and lint buildup can increase the risk of overheating. We recommend:
-
Cleaning your lint trap every load
-
Having the dryer exhaust vent professionally cleaned about once a year
Important note (keep this, it’s valuable)
There are two kinds of dryer vent tubing: flexible and fixed. Flexible tubing can be damaged if handled improperly. Also, because of air pressure and the equipment used during duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning isn’t always possible depending on:
The vent material
How it’s connected
Accessibility and routing
