Air Duct Cleaning in Aberdare

Evidence is mixed for routine cleaning of already-clean ducts. It clearly helps when ducts contain mould, construction dust, pest debris, or blockages. Pairing cleaning with better filtration and sealing duct leaks delivers more measurable benefit than cleaning alone.

Usually no — blanket chemical fogging is discouraged unless there's confirmed microbial growth and the product is approved for HVAC use. Mechanical cleaning plus fixing the moisture source addresses the cause; fogging is the most-upsold, least-needed add-on.

Lint-clogged dryer vents are a leading cause of house fires and make dryers run long and hot. Annual cleaning of the vent run — not just the lint trap — restores airflow, cuts drying times, and removes the fire risk. It's cheap relative to the risk.

Usually per system or per vent: a flat whole-house price for an average system, with surcharges for extra vents, multiple air handlers, or heavy contamination. Dryer vent cleaning is typically a smaller separate line item.

A typical single-system home takes 2-4 hours with a two-person crew. Larger homes, multiple air handlers, or heavy contamination stretch to a full day. Be suspicious of anyone promising a whole house in under an hour.

Only if you have ducted systems — MVHR in newer builds, ducted heat pumps, or long extractor runs. MVHR filters and ducts do need periodic cleaning to keep airflow and heat-recovery efficiency; radiator-heated homes have no ducts to clean.
