You’ll notice the difference in how your space feels. Less dust settling on surfaces between cleanings. Fewer allergy flare-ups when the system kicks on. Air that doesn’t smell stale or musty when you walk in the door.
Your HVAC system runs more efficiently when it’s not pushing air through layers of buildup. That means it cycles less often to reach the same temperature, which shows up on your energy bill. It also means fewer service calls because your system isn’t working overtime to compensate for restricted airflow.
If you’ve been dealing with uneven heating or cooling, strange odors, or visible dust around your vents, those are signs your ductwork needs attention. Indoor air can be three to four times more polluted than outdoor air, and most of that comes from what’s circulating through your ducts. Cleaning them removes the source instead of just masking the symptoms.
We’ve been improving indoor air quality across the Greensboro area for over 30 years, and we’ve expanded our services to Asheboro and the surrounding Randolph County communities. We focus exclusively on crawl space solutions and HVAC duct cleaning—no dryer vents, no side services. Just deep expertise in the work that matters most for your air quality.
We use the same equipment and methods recommended by the National Air Duct Cleaners Association, which means powerful vacuums, rotating brushes, and compressed air tools designed to remove everything from dust and pollen to mold and debris. Our technicians are trained to handle both residential and commercial ductwork, and we don’t leave until the job meets the standard—not just ours, but the one set by the industry.
Asheboro’s mix of older homes and newer commercial buildings means every system is different. We’ve worked on everything from small residential HVAC units to large commercial systems in office buildings and retail spaces throughout the area.
We start with an inspection of your entire HVAC system. That includes looking at your vents, registers, and accessible ductwork to assess how much buildup you’re dealing with and whether there are any issues like mold growth, vermin, or damaged sections that need attention before we clean.
Once we know what we’re working with, we seal off your vents and connect a high-powered vacuum system to your main duct line. This creates negative pressure throughout the system, which means everything we dislodge gets pulled directly into our equipment instead of spreading through your space. Then we go through each section of ductwork with rotating brushes and compressed air tools to break loose and remove the accumulated dust, dirt, and debris.
After the cleaning, we sanitize the system if needed and inspect everything again to make sure it’s clear. You’ll see the difference immediately—cleaner air, better airflow, and a system that works the way it should. The whole process typically takes a few hours depending on the size of your system, and we clean up completely before we leave.

You get a complete cleaning of your entire HVAC system—not just the easy-to-reach sections. That means supply and return ducts, registers, grilles, diffusers, heat exchangers, cooling coils, drip pans, and the air handling unit. We also inspect your system for mold, excessive dust, or any signs of vermin that could be affecting your air quality.
For commercial properties in Asheboro, this matters even more. Poor indoor air quality costs North Carolina businesses half a million missed workdays every year, plus thousands of hospital admissions for respiratory and cardiovascular issues. If your employees are dealing with persistent allergies, frequent sick days, or complaints about stuffiness, your ductwork is likely part of the problem. Clean ducts can improve productivity by up to 10% just by reducing the health-related distractions that come with poor air quality.
We don’t do residential dryer vents, so if that’s what you need, we’re not the right fit. But if you’re looking for thorough, professional air duct and vent cleaning that actually removes the contamination instead of just stirring it around, that’s what we do. We use NADCA-compliant methods, which means the work is done right and the results last.
Most homes and businesses benefit from duct cleaning every three to five years, but that changes depending on your situation. If you have pets, smokers, or anyone with allergies or asthma, you’ll want to clean them more often—closer to every two to three years.
You should also consider cleaning after any major renovation, water damage, or if you’ve noticed mold growth anywhere in your HVAC system. Construction dust, drywall particles, and other debris can settle into your ductwork and circulate for years if you don’t address it. Same goes for any flooding or leaks that could introduce moisture into your ducts, which creates the perfect environment for mold.
If you’re seeing visible dust around your vents, smelling musty odors when your system runs, or dealing with unexplained allergy symptoms that get worse indoors, those are signs you shouldn’t wait. Your ducts are telling you they need attention.
Changing your filter only catches new particles before they enter your system. It does nothing for the dust, mold, and debris already sitting in your ductwork—and that’s where the real problem lives.
Your filter is designed to protect your HVAC equipment, not to clean the air you breathe. Even the best filters can’t capture everything, and over time, contaminants build up on the walls of your ducts, in your registers, and throughout the system. Every time your HVAC cycles on, it circulates that buildup back into your space.
A professional duct cleaning removes what’s already there. We’re pulling out years of accumulated dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and anything else that’s been collecting in your system. You’ll still need to change your filter regularly, but cleaning your ducts gives you a fresh start and makes your filter more effective going forward.
Most residential duct cleaning runs between $270 and $500, depending on the size of your home, how many vents you have, and how accessible your ductwork is. Larger homes or systems that haven’t been cleaned in years will be on the higher end. Commercial properties vary more widely based on square footage and system complexity.
The national average is around $380, but pricing in Asheboro tends to reflect the local market and the condition of your system. If we find mold, significant debris, or damaged ductwork during the inspection, that could affect the final cost—but we’ll tell you upfront before we start any work.
You’re not paying for speed. You’re paying for the equipment, the expertise, and the thoroughness it takes to actually remove what’s built up in your system. Cheap duct cleaning usually means corners cut, and that means you’re right back where you started within months.
Yes, if your ducts are contributing to the problem—and they usually are. Health experts estimate that one in six people with allergies are directly affected by fungi and bacteria living in their duct systems. Every time your HVAC runs, it spreads those allergens throughout your space.
The EPA consistently ranks indoor air pollution as one of the top five environmental health risks, and your ductwork is a major source of that pollution. Dust mites, mold spores, pollen, pet dander—it all accumulates in your ducts and recirculates every time your system kicks on. If you’re dealing with sneezing, coughing, itchy eyes, or respiratory irritation that gets worse indoors, cleaning your ducts removes the source.
That said, duct cleaning isn’t a cure-all. If you have other sources of allergens in your space or underlying health conditions, you’ll still need to address those. But removing years of buildup from your HVAC system gives you cleaner air to start with, and most people notice a real difference in how they feel at home or work.
It can, especially if your ducts are clogged with dust and debris. When your HVAC system has to push air through restricted ductwork, it works harder and runs longer to reach the temperature you’ve set. That extra runtime shows up on your energy bill.
Up to 40% of the energy used for heating and cooling gets wasted because of buildup in your ducts. Clean ducts allow air to flow freely, which means your system doesn’t have to cycle as often or work as hard. You’ll see the biggest savings if your ducts haven’t been cleaned in years or if you’ve noticed your system running constantly without keeping your space comfortable.
You’re also extending the life of your HVAC equipment. Systems that run efficiently last longer and need fewer repairs. When your ducts are clean, your system can do its job without the extra strain that leads to breakdowns and early replacement.
Look for visible signs first. If you see dust or debris blowing out of your vents when the system starts, or if there’s visible mold growth around your registers, you need cleaning. Same goes for musty or stale odors that get stronger when your HVAC runs—that’s a clear sign something’s growing in your ductwork.
Check your vents and registers. If they’re caked with dust or you can see buildup just inside the duct opening, that’s what’s coating the entire system. You can also pull your filter and look at how quickly it gets dirty. If it’s clogged within a week or two of changing it, your ducts are feeding contamination back into the system.
The NADCA recommends cleaning every three years on average, but you know your space better than anyone. If your allergies are worse indoors, if you’re dusting constantly and it never stays clean, or if your energy bills have crept up without explanation, those are real indicators. We’ll inspect your system and show you what we find before we recommend anything. You’ll see exactly what’s in there, and then you can decide if it’s worth addressing.
