Transparent answers about air duct cleaning from our certified technicians.
Professional air duct cleaning in Edgewood typically costs $300 to $600 for a standard home with a single HVAC system and 8 to 15 supply registers. Homes with multiple HVAC systems, extensive ductwork runs, or severe contamination from mold, rodents, or post-construction debris may run $600 to $1,200. Be cautious of companies advertising $99 or $149 whole-house duct cleaning specials — legitimate source removal cleaning requires a negative air machine, mechanical agitation tools, and 3 to 5 hours of skilled labor. Lowball pricing usually means a quick run-through with a shop vacuum that leaves most of the contamination in place. KIC Refrigeration provides honest, transparent pricing for genuine duct cleaning in Edgewood.
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends professional duct cleaning every 3 to 5 years for most homes. However, several factors can shorten that interval for Edgewood properties. Homes with indoor pets that shed hair and dander, smokers, family members with asthma or severe allergies, recent remodeling or construction, or visible mold growth in or around duct registers should be cleaned more frequently — every 2 to 3 years. New construction homes should be cleaned before occupancy to remove accumulated drywall dust, sawdust, paint overspray, and construction debris that settles inside the ductwork during the building process. KIC Refrigeration inspects your Edgewood ducts and recommends a cleaning schedule based on actual conditions.
A thorough, professional duct cleaning for a typical Edgewood home with a single HVAC system and 10 to 15 supply registers takes 3 to 5 hours. Larger homes with multiple HVAC systems, extensive ductwork, or severe contamination may take a full day of 6 to 8 hours. This time includes setting up the negative air machine, individually cleaning each supply and return run with rotary brushes and compressed air tools, cleaning the blower housing and evaporator coil surface, and performing a final inspection. Companies that promise to clean an entire duct system in 1 to 2 hours are almost certainly not performing genuine source removal cleaning. KIC Refrigeration takes the time to do the job correctly at your Edgewood property.
Yes. KIC Refrigeration follows NADCA ACR Standard 2021 — the Assessment, Cleaning, and Restoration standard published by the National Air Duct Cleaners Association — for all duct cleaning work in Edgewood, WA. We use the source removal method, which is the only cleaning approach that NADCA and the EPA recognize as effective. This involves connecting a negative air machine to the trunk line to create sustained negative pressure throughout the duct system, then mechanically agitating each branch with rotating brushes and compressed air whips to dislodge contaminants, which are pulled into a sealed HEPA-filtered collection unit. We do not rely on chemical fogging, ozone generators, or sealant sprays as substitutes for proper mechanical cleaning.
