Dust, a musty odor, weak airflow, or allergy symptoms do not prove that Norfolk ducts are contaminated or causing a health problem. These signs can have other causes, including filters, ventilation, moisture, equipment, or ordinary indoor sources.
Conditions that may warrant duct cleaning
EPA says cleaning may be considered when substantial visible mold is documented inside hard-surface ducts or HVAC components, vermin are inside the ductwork, or excessive debris is released from supply registers into the home. Ask the provider to show the condition and explain the scope in writing.
Correct moisture and pest entry at the source. A duct inspection can document accessible HVAC conditions; it cannot diagnose an allergy or explain a person's symptoms.
