Dust buildup inside an air duct before cleaning in Little Falls, NJClean air duct after professional cleaning in Little Falls, NJ

About the project

Allergies had been acting up at home for this Little Falls homeowner, and the ductwork seemed like the obvious place to check.

It didn’t take much digging to see why. The duct interior wasn’t just dusty, it was coated in a fine, sandy layer that had built up over time and hardened into the ribbing of the flex duct. One section was bad enough that the dust had turned the black material almost tan, thick enough to change its color completely. Near the duct collar, the same buildup crept along the metal edges and into the connection point, and one of the vent openings inside the wall cavity had dust packed into every corner, dark and dense against the black duct lining.

We ran the cleaning equipment through the full length of the affected ductwork, working the dust loose from the ribbing and pulling it out section by section. The collar and connection points got cleaned separately, since dust likes to sit right where two pieces of duct meet. The vent opening inside the wall got cleared out too, back down to the original black lining.

What came out was a lot of fine dust that had been sitting there a long time. What’s left now is ductwork you can actually see the lining on, dark and clear instead of coated tan.
