Air duct cleaning can improve the quality of your indoor air and increase the efficiency of your HVAC system, which can result in lower energy bills. It is recommended that air duct cleaning be performed every three to five years, although the frequency may vary depending on factors such as the level of use of your HVAC system, the age of your home or business, and the presence of pets or smokers.
