Duct Cleaning Mississauga & the GTA Area
Duct Cleaning
If you are seeing dust around vents, noticing stale odours when your system runs, or wondering what has collected in your ductwork, a clear conversation can help you decide whether duct cleaning is worth scheduling. Furnace King provides air duct cleaning for homeowners in Mississauga and throughout the GTA with truck-powered equipment designed to remove dust and debris from the duct system.
Because aggressive duct-cleaning calls have made many homeowners cautious, we keep the process straightforward. We answer your questions, explain how the service works, and provide a pressure-free complimentary quote. We do not use unsolicited calls to push the service.
Improve your home's indoor air quality
We will explain when duct cleaning may make sense for your home and what the service includes. If you have concerns about debris inside the ducts, signs of pests, or dust left after renovation work, ask us about the condition of the ductwork and the appropriate next step.
Our team serves Mississauga and the GTA, including Brampton, Etobicoke, Oakville, Burlington, Milton, Toronto, Vaughan, Markham, and Scarborough. When you are ready to explore the options, we will walk you through the process and help you choose a suitable time for service.
Duct cleaning in Mississauga is one of our featured services.
You know you need your air ducts cleaned when:
- There are excessive amounts of debris, like dust, clogging your duct system and they are released into your home when the system is running.
- You notice visible mould growth within your heating ducts or even on other parts of your HVAC system.
- There are insects or even pests like rats infesting some portions of your ducts.
How is our duct cleaning performed?
We follow the cleaning standard recommended by the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA).
- There are excessive amounts of debris, like dust, clogging your duct system and they are released into your home when the system is running.
- Then, we turn off the furnace.
- We bring the large vacuum hose into the basement, or furnace area, and attach it to the air supply line of your duct work. This vacuum hose is powered by our truck (described above).
- While that side of your system is under vacuum pressure, we block the vent that is in the home which forces all of the dust, dirt and debris into the main lines using compressed air. The main lines are the branches that run off of the furnace which your whole house air travels on.
- We then repeat these steps above for the return side of your system, which each of the cold air returns in the home.
- When we send a power snake through the main lines, the air snake will pull all the dust, dirt and debris into the vacuum hose and out to the truck.
- After your system is clean, we sanitize the ductwork using our government approved product killing any mold and bacteria that may be in the system.
- We then cover the furnace back up using precision points using caps, duct tape, plates, and screws.
- Lastly, we turn the furnace back on.
How to Choose a Duct Cleaning Company in Mississauga
The best duct cleaning company in Mississauga is one that cleans the whole system, is open about its equipment, and quotes without pressure. These are the questions we’d suggest asking any company, including us:
- Is the whole system cleaned? A thorough job covers the supply side, every cold-air return and the main lines that run off the furnace.
- How much suction does the equipment have? Airflow is measured in CFM. Our truck-powered unit is rated at up to 45,000 CFM, compared with about 10,000 for many portable units and smaller trucks.
- Did they cold-call you? Be cautious with unsolicited calls and pushy sales pitches. We don’t use unsolicited calls to sell duct cleaning, and our quotes are complimentary and pressure-free.
- What happens after the cleaning? Ask whether the ductwork is sanitized and how access points are sealed. We sanitize with Benefect and close the system back up with caps, plates and screws.
If you’d like to talk it through first, request a free quote and we’ll explain what your ductwork needs, if anything.
What equipment do we use?
- We only use state of the art high powered truck powered equipment, as opposed to the less efficient truck mounted or portable system used by some of our competitors.
- The equipment (PTO powered off the engine) is mounted on the drive shaft to the truck.
- The transmission of the truck controls the RPM’s, or the pitch of the truck, to increase the horsepower.
- The RPM’s are boosted to have 16 bars that pop out of the top of the vacuum truck. These bags filter the dust and debris. We can move up to 45,000 cfm of air per job (CFM = cubic feet per minute).
- Portable or smaller trucks used by other companies may only have 10,000 CFM — even less in some models. CFM is associated with the volume of air.
- We also use a power snake, or whip system, which generates between 250-285 PSI (pounds per square inch).
- The sanitizer product that we use is called Benefect.
