  • What causes indoor air problems?

    According to the EPA, most indoor pollution occurs from using materials that release gases or particles into the air. They specify a range of pollution sources, which include: 


    Combustion sources: Oil, gas, kerosene, coal, wood, and tobacco products.


    Building materials and furnishings: Deteriorated, asbestos-containing insulation, wet or damp carpet, cabinetry, or furniture made of certain pressed wood products.


    Household products: Cleaning and maintenance products, personal care products, or hobbies products can contribute to poor indoor air quality.


    HVAC systems: Improperly maintained central heating and cooling systems and humidification devices 


    Outdoor sources: Radon, pesticides, and outdoor air pollution.


    We at AC Perfected LLC perform air conditioning ductwork cleaning NJ residents can rely on. 

  • What health benefits come from cleaning my HVAC system?

    Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems have been shown to collect a variety of contaminants such as mold, fungi, bacteria, carcinogens, and small particles of dust. All of these have the potential to affect our health. The removal of such contaminants from the HVAC system should be considered one component in an overall plan to improve your indoor air quality. Don’t let these issues go undetected. The average person spends 90% of their life indoors. If you are looking for restoration duct cleaning in NJ for your home or business, contact us today!

  • How can I determine if the HVAC system cleaning was effective?

    The best way to determine if the service was effective is to perform a visual inspection of the system before and after the cleaning. We welcome you to inspect our work after we have finished. We will give you better access to system components and the use of specialized inspection tools in order to check our ductwork cleaning in NJ. 

  • How should a residential HVAC system be cleaned?

    The most effective way to clean air ducts and ventilation systems is with source removal methods of cleaning. We place the system under negative pressure through the use of a specialized, powerful vacuum. While the vacuum draws air through the system, devices are inserted into the ducts to dislodge any debris that might be stuck inside. The debris can then travel down the ducts to the vacuum, which removes it from the system and the home. Call us today so we can send an experienced air vent cleaner NJ trusts! 

  • What parts of the ductwork get cleaned?

    Our air vent cleaner in NJ recommends that the three main components of the system are cleaned. Those are the supply and return grills, the interior surface of the supply and return vents, and the HVAC system heater/air handler. All three components must be cleaned thoroughly. If only a part of the system is cleaned, the contaminants on the uncleaned portion will spread to the cleaned sections.

  • Is it necessary to cut holes in my ductwork?

    Yes. Our air vent cleaner NJ trusts will typically have to cut two holes per system in order to clean it properly. One hole will be cut on the supply plenum as close to the heater/air handler as possible. The second access hole is made on the return duct near the filter/rack section. All service access covers will be installed in accordance with NADCA standards. After the cleaning has been completed, you'll notice small 1-inch round black cap plugs on some places of the ductwork. These are used to seal the cleaning access points throughout the system and will not affect system performance.

  • How long does an average duct cleaning service take?

    A single-family home’s air duct systems are typically completed within two to four hours with a crew consisting of at least two technicians. Older homes and those with pets may take longer. Newer homes, townhomes, and condominiums may take less time to clean! Call us today to schedule your ductwork cleaning in NJ today. 

  • How often should residential HVAC systems be cleaned?

    We recommend having your air ducts cleaned every two to three years. The frequency of cleaning depends on several factors. These factors include: 


    Smokers in the household. 

    Pets that shed high amounts of hair and dander.

    Water or smoke contamination or damage to the home or HVAC system. 

    Residents with allergies or asthma who might benefit from a reduction in the number of indoor air pollutants in the home’s HVAC system.

    After home renovations or remodeling. 

    Prior to occupancy of a new home.

  • Will the duct cleaning process leave a mess in my home or commercial property?

    No. Our air vent cleaner NJ loves to work with uses the highest quality state-of-the-art duct cleaning equipment. All vacuum devices we use utilize H.E.P.A. (high-efficiency particulate air). This filtration is rated at 99.97% at 0.3 microns, which means there will be no mess left behind once the service is complete.

  • Will HVAC system cleaning reduce our home energy bills?

    Research done by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has demonstrated that HVAC system cleaning may allow systems to run more efficiently by removing debris from sensitive mechanical components. Clean, efficient systems are less likely to break down, have a longer lifespan, and generally operate more effectively than dirty systems.

Discover additional information about indoor air quality

Indoor air is four to five times more polluted than outdoor air. Approximately 87% of American homeowners are completely unaware of indoor air pollution. There’s more in the air than you can easily see. Particles, dust, and smoke are all potential triggers for asthma and allergy attacks.


Particles that include dust, smoke, and bacteria can be as small as 0.3 microns or less. At that size, allergens can get deep into your lungs because they are not effectively filtered by your nose and throat.


  • According to a study by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, indoor air contaminants are responsible for or aggravate half of all illnesses.
  • Poor indoor air quality negatively affects more than 15 million Americans with asthma and the 28 million who suffer from hay fever and other allergies.
  • It is recommended we drink approximately two quarts of clean water each day. By comparison, we inhale approximately 15,000 quarts of air each day.
  • More than 15 million Americans are estimated to have asthma, including one in 13 school-age children.
  • Children breathe faster than adults. That means they inhale 50% more air per pound of bodyweight than adults and are especially sensitive to air quality problems.
