Air Duct Cleaning
& HVAC Services
Your air ducts cycle every breath of air in your home. When clogged with dust, allergens, and debris, your HVAC works harder and your family breathes worse air.
Whole-Home Pricing
Priced by home size — not per vent
Price confirmed before booking
Ceiling vents incur an additional charge.
What We Remove
Dirty Filters Are Just the Start
A clogged filter is a visible symptom — but the buildup inside the duct network is what drives air quality issues and system strain. We clean the full system, not just the accessible surfaces.
After cleaning, filters last longer and the system runs more efficiently. Most homeowners notice improved airflow and reduced dust within days.
What's Included in Our Cleaning
Supply duct cleaning
All supply lines from the air handler to every vent register, cleared of dust and debris
Return duct cleaning
Return air lines that pull stale air back to the HVAC unit — often the most contaminated portion
Air handler cleaning
The internal components of the air handler including the blower wheel and evaporator coil area
Register and grille cleaning
All supply and return registers removed, cleaned, and reinstalled
HEPA vacuum containment
We use HEPA-filtered vacuum systems to capture and contain debris rather than releasing it into your home
Pre and post inspection
We photograph before and after to show you exactly what was removed

How Often Should You Clean Your Air Ducts?
The EPA and NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) recommend air duct cleaning every 3–5 years for most homes. Clean more frequently if:
- You have pets that shed
- A household member has asthma or allergies
- You've recently completed home renovations or construction
- You've moved into a previously owned home and don't know the cleaning history
- You've had water damage or noticed mold near registers
- You have a very dusty home despite regular cleaning

“The Genesis team was easy to coordinate with and they showed up on time — at the beginning of the window! — and gave clear, direct recommendations without any pressure. Would absolutely hire again.”

“Hired Genesis for dryer vent cleaning after a friend's recommendation. The tech was on time, explained exactly what he found (a pretty serious lint clog), and had it cleaned in 45 minutes. House smells better and I feel a lot safer. Five stars without hesitation.”

“I found Genesis through Angi and could not be happier. They came out the next day for a chimney inspection before we started using our fireplace for the season. Technician was thorough, honest, and didn't try to upsell anything unnecessary. Will be booking them every year.”

“Amazing work from Genesis! They came in and worked with my vision to convert one of our fireplaces to gas log and retrofit the other with a gas fire starter. Not only did they take the time to understand exactly what I wanted and make a clear plan, but they even got up on the roof and found a few other critical issues that needed fixing. They handled a long list of items, coordinating and negotiating with other vendors to get everything done quickly and done right — from roof and chimney work to running new gas lines to sweeping. The end result was a custom solution that fit our home perfectly and looks incredible. I can't say enough about the quality of their work, timeliness, and professionalism. Highly recommend!”

“I couldn't be happier with Genesis Home Services! David, our technician, was nothing short of amazing. He arrived promptly and immediately zeroed in on the issue. His commitment to getting the job done quickly and efficiently was impressive, but what really stood out was his kindness and professionalism throughout the entire process. David's ability to provide a swift diagnosis went above and beyond my expectations. It's rare to find a service that's both fast and thorough, and Genesis Home Services nailed it. Highly recommend Genesis Home Services to anyone in need.”

Time to Call — 5 Warning Signs
These are the signals your air duct system is overdue for a cleaning.
You need to dust more than usual
If you find yourself dusting furniture every few days — even with windows closed — your ducts are likely redistributing accumulated debris with every HVAC cycle.
Higher utility bills
Restricted airflow caused by duct buildup forces your HVAC unit to run longer to reach target temperatures. If your heating or cooling costs have crept up without explanation, dirty ducts may be the culprit.
Allergy or respiratory symptoms
If family members experience increased sneezing, coughing, or allergy flare-ups that improve when they leave home, contaminated air ducts circulating allergens and mold spores could be a contributing factor.
Little or no airflow from vents
Registers that barely push air — or pull noticeably less than others — suggest significant buildup in those duct runs, or a blockage. This puts added strain on your HVAC system and reduces efficiency throughout the home.
Musty or stale odor when HVAC runs
A smell that appears only when the furnace or AC kicks on is a strong indicator of mold growth, dead insects, or significant debris accumulation inside the duct system. This warrants prompt inspection and cleaning.
You can see debris at the registers
Visible dust buildup around your supply or return registers — especially dark streaks on surrounding walls — means contaminants are actively being discharged into your living space.
Benefits of Clean Air Ducts
Regular air duct cleaning pays for itself in energy savings, HVAC longevity, and improved home air quality.
Cleaner Indoor Air
Remove allergens, mold spores, pet dander, and dust particles that recirculate with every HVAC cycle.
Lower Energy Bills
Clean ducts allow unrestricted airflow — your HVAC reaches target temperature faster and runs less.
Longer HVAC Life
Reduced strain on the blower motor and heat exchanger means fewer repairs and a longer system lifespan.
Less Dusting
Less debris in your ducts means less debris blowing out of your registers and settling on surfaces.
What Is Air Duct Cleaning?
Air ducts are the network of channels associated with your HVAC system — the heating and cooling system in your home. These ducts carry conditioned air from your furnace or air handler to every room, then return it back for reconditioning.
Over time, these passages collect dust, pet dander, pollen, mold spores, construction debris, and other contaminants. Every time your HVAC runs, it pulls from and pushes into these ducts — recirculating whatever has accumulated inside throughout your home.
Professional air duct cleaning uses specialized rotary brush systems, high-powered vacuums, and compressed air tools to remove built-up debris from the full duct network — from the air handler to every supply and return register in your home.
