There are real cases where cleaning is worth doing, and Master's Plumbing handles those across North Jersey as part of our heating and cooling work. When we clean ducts, we also seal the leaks that let the dirt in, because cleaning without sealing is a temporary fix.
When duct cleaning is actually worth it
- After a renovation, especially drywall sanding or floor refinishing with the system running
- Visible mold growth inside the ducts or on the coil
- Rodents or insects have been in the ductwork
- Construction debris or insulation was left in the ducts when the house was built
- A puff of dust from the registers every time the blower starts
- You bought an older home and have no idea what is in there
What we do
Inspection first
We look inside the supply and return ducts, the plenum and the coil. If they are clean, we tell you and you save the cost of the job.
Source-removal cleaning
Debris is loosened and pulled out of the duct runs, plenum and registers with the system under negative pressure so it leaves the house instead of blowing into it.
Coil and blower cleaning
The indoor coil and blower wheel are where the real buildup lives. Cleaning ducts and skipping these is missing the point.
Sealing
Leaky returns pull attic, basement and crawlspace dust into the system. We seal the leaks we find so the ducts stay clean.
Filter upgrade
A proper media filter after cleaning keeps it that way. See our air filtration page.
How it works

Call and describe what you are seeing
We will ask a few questions. Sometimes the answer is a filter change and a coil cleaning, not a full duct job.

Cleaning and sealing
Registers are removed and cleaned, ducts are cleared, the coil and blower are cleaned, and leaks are sealed.

Reassembly and test
Everything goes back, the filter is replaced, and the system is run to confirm airflow.
