Dust and debris accumulation in your air conditioning system not only reduces efficiency but can also harm indoor air quality and trigger allergies. Our AC Dusting & Cleaning service targets hidden contaminants in coils, ducts, and blower assemblies to keep your system running at peak performance.
Service Components
- Indoor Coil & Blower Assembly Cleaning
- Remove the indoor unit’s access panels to expose coils and blower wheel.
- Use a low-pressure, foaming coil cleaner approved for HVAC applications.
- Gently brush fins and vacuum loose debris from coils, then rinse and neutralize residue.
- Clean blower wheel, housing, and motor to remove built-up dust that can hinder airflow.
- Condenser Coil Dusting
- Turn off power to the outdoor unit.
- Use specialized coil brushes or compressed air to dislodge dust, grass, and leaves stuck between condenser fins.
- Rinse with a garden hose (if accessible) to wash away remaining particles.
- Return & Supply Vent Cleaning (Basic)
- Remove and clean vent covers and grilles with a mild detergent solution.
- Vacuum visible dust in duct openings near the return and supply registers (note: this is not a full duct-sealing or deep duct-cleaning service).
- Filter Inspection & Replacement
- Inspect your current filter for dust loading.
- Replace standard 1” or premium pleated filters (MERV 8–11) based on customer preference.
- Advise on recommended filter change intervals (every 1–3 months, depending on usage and indoor air quality).
Why Dusting & Cleaning Matters
- Enhanced Airflow: Dust on coils and blower wheels restricts airflow, causing your system to work harder and increasing energy consumption.
- Improved Cooling Performance: Clean coils transfer heat more effectively, resulting in faster and more consistent temperature control.
- Allergen Reduction: Regular dust removal helps reduce pet dander, pollen, mold spores, and other irritants circulating through ductwork.
- Reduced Repair Costs: Preventing debris buildup helps avert motor overloading, compressor overheating, and coil freeze-ups that lead to costly repairs.
Recommended Schedule
- Every 6–12 Months: For most homes, a thorough dusting and coil clean should occur at least once per year—preferably before peak cooling season.
- High-Dust Environments: Homes near construction sites, heavy traffic corridors, or with furry pets may benefit from twice-yearly cleaning.
