The Importance of Clean Air Ducts
Clean ducts are essential for HVAC system performance and indoor air quality. Over time, dust, dirt, pollen, pet dander, and other contaminants accumulate within the ductwork. These particles can restrict airflow, reducing the efficiency of your HVAC system.
Dirty ducts can also release these contaminants into the air, leading to poor indoor air quality. Regular duct cleaning helps remove these pollutants, allowing your HVAC system to function optimally while promoting healthier indoor air.

Signs It’s Time To Clean Your Ducts
Wondering if it’s time to schedule a professional duct cleaning? Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Excessive dust: If you find yourself constantly dusting your home despite regular cleaning, it may mean your air ducts need attention.
- Allergy flare-ups: Increased allergies or respiratory issues could be a sign of contaminated air circulating through dirty ducts.
- Visible mold growth: If you notice visible mold growth inside your ducts or on other HVAC components, immediate duct cleaning is necessary to prevent further spread.
- Unpleasant odors: Lingering unpleasant odors from your vents can indicate mold, mildew, or other contaminants in your ductwork.
- Reduced airflow: If some rooms feel significantly less comfortable than others or you notice weak airflow from your vents, it could be due to duct blockages that require cleaning.
How Often Should Air Ducts Be Cleaned?
The frequency of air duct cleaning depends on various factors such as the environment, the presence of pets, allergies, and the age of the ductwork. As a general guideline:
- Every 3 to 5 years: For most homes, where there are no special circumstances like heavy pet shedding or allergies, this frequency is often sufficient.
- Every 2 to 3 years: If you have pets that shed a lot or if there are individuals in the household with allergies or respiratory issues, more frequent cleaning may be necessary.
- Annually or semi-annually: In environments where there's significant dust, construction, or renovation work ongoing, more frequent cleaning may be required.
Regularly inspect your ductwork for signs such as dust buildup, unusual odors, or poor airflow. Consider cleaning if needed, especially when moving into a new space to remove construction debris or residue from previous occupants.
Contact Horizon Air Solutions at (346) 988-2977 to schedule duct cleaning.
What Causes Dirty Air Ducts?
Cooling and heating your home involves air passing through the ducts. Along the way, dust, pet dander, pollen, and other particles can accumulate and settle within the ductwork.
Regular activities such as cooking, cleaning, and even pet hair can further add to the buildup. It’s important to address these issues through professional duct cleaning to maintain optimal air quality.

How do I know when it's time to replace my furnace?
Without maintenance, your HVAC system will last about 10 years. If you’ve recently had two or more repairs to your furnace, boiler, or heat pump, it’s time to replace your heating system. A heating unit is a big financial investment. Fall furnace maintenance saves money by keeping your system running more efficiently for longer.
The winter storm of 2021 is proof that we should keep our heating systems in good condition!
If you have questions about heating system maintenance, call (346) 988-2977 or contact Horizon Air Solutions.
If your AC breaks and it’s more than 90 degrees outside, that’s an emergency. If your boiler, furnace, or heating system breaks and it’s 40 degrees or below, that’s an emergency too.
Signs to look for include:
- Air blows cool when you need warm air.
- HVAC system won’t turn on.
- If your heating unit turns on and off, this is called short-cycling, and it’s an emergency in minus 40-degree weather.
- Noises (clicking, clunking) can indicate an emergency.
- Odd smell — if it’s the odor of burning plastic/electronics, don’t delay. If you smell gas, call your utility company, then call us ASAP.
- Puddles or drips under your heating unit can be a frozen coil or refrigerant leak.
- You suspect you have a furnace carbon monoxide leak:
- Brown/yellow stains around the pilot light area of the unit.
- Pilot light keeps blowing out.
- You notice a gas-like exhaust smell.
If you didn’t schedule fall heating maintenance, it’s not uncommon to smell burning dust the first time you turn on your heating unit. Odors you should be concerned about are:
- Burning plastic/electrical: Turn off your heating system immediately and call Horizon Air for emergency heating repair.
- Chemical/formaldehyde: A crack in the heat exchanger can cause this odor; it’s an emergency.
- Lingering odors: We have several solutions for “bad air.” The overwhelming smell of cooking grease, cigarette smoke, or pet urine isn’t an emergency, but it isn’t healthy, either. Schedule an indoor air quality assessment.
- Metallic: A heating unit component may be overheating. Turn the unit off and call us.
- Mold/mildew or “dirty socks”: This is not an emergency, but it’s a health risk. Schedule an HVAC inspection.
- Rotten eggs: This may indicate a gas leak. Turn off your heating unit, open windows, and call your utility company. Then call Horizon Air.
- Sewage: This is dangerous. It means a sewage line is leaking into some area of your heating system. Call us, but we may advise you to call a plumber before scheduling an emergency repair.
- Smoke: Turn off your heating system and call us ASAP.
