Are My Furnace Air Ducts Clean?

Posted On: October 7, 2024

Are My Furnace Air Ducts Clean?

Keeping your furnace air ducts clean is essential for maintaining indoor air quality and ensuring efficient heating. Here are some signs that can help you determine if your air ducts need cleaning:


1. Visible Dust and Debris

  • Check the vents and registers. If you see dust buildup or debris coming from the ducts, this is a clear sign they need cleaning.

2. Inconsistent Airflow

  • If some rooms are warmer or cooler than others, dirty ducts could be blocking proper airflow, affecting the efficiency of your furnace.

3. Musty Odors

  • A musty smell when the furnace is on could indicate mold or mildew buildup in the ducts.

4. Frequent Allergy Symptoms

  • If you or others in your home experience more frequent allergy or respiratory issues, it could be due to dust, pollen, or other allergens trapped in dirty air ducts.

5. Visible Mold

  • Mold growing near your air vents or inside the ducts is a significant health hazard, and the ducts should be cleaned immediately.

6. Increased Dust Around Your Home

  • If you notice more dust settling on surfaces despite regular cleaning, dirty ducts may be circulating dust throughout your home.

7. Unusual Noises

  • Popping or banging noises when your furnace is on could indicate that debris is obstructing airflow in the ducts.

Regular maintenance and cleaning of furnace air ducts can improve your system’s efficiency, reduce energy bills, and contribute to healthier indoor air. If you notice any of these signs, it may be time to schedule a professional duct cleaning.

TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all! I did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!

by Trevor Owens on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I returned from vacation to find my AC unit on the Fritz. After calling way too many places I connected with TwinTech. I’ve used the company in the past for my furnace so I was happy when I recognized Greg at my front door. He’s great and the service is always top notch. I’d highly recommend using twintech for honest, superior service in the Durham region. Thanks!

by Nicole Alain on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I called Twin Tech when my air conditioning stopped working. Greg came over to diagnose the issue - the same day. He was able to diagnose the issue and resolve it quite quickly. Although it was a quick fix, Greg was very thorough in explaining the issue and provided great advice. Not to mention, I felt very comfortable having Greg in my home - which I consider very important when hiring a service provider. Twin Tech will be my go-to from now on. Thank you!!

Twintech Heating & Cooling installed my furnace in 2022 and in fall of 2023 installed my Panasonic Heat Pump. Greg and Mitch did a great job. Helped me through the rebate process. Super happy with the Heat Pump. Only used my furnace 5 times this winter. Energy bills lower, carbon emissions lower.Thank you Twintech. I recommend highly!
