Most Toronto homes do well with air duct cleaning every 2 to 3 years, but this can change depending on your household. Homes with pets, recent renovations, allergy sufferers, or older ductwork that's never been cleaned often benefit from more frequent service. New homeowners moving into an older Toronto property are also encouraged to book a first cleaning, since the previous owner's maintenance history is often unknown.
Common warning signs include clothes taking longer than usual to dry, the outside of your dryer feeling unusually hot during a cycle, a burning smell while it's running, visible lint around the outside vent hood, and the exterior vent flap not opening properly due to buildup. If you notice any of these, it's worth booking a dryer vent cleaning promptly — a blocked vent is one of the leading causes of house fires.
A full air duct cleaning at The Duct Cleaning Pro includes cleaning of your complete supply and return ductwork, drill brush cleaning, and before & after photos on every package, starting with our Bronze Package. Higher packages add furnace cleaning, air conditioner evaporator coil cleaning, and dryer & exhaust vent cleaning. Every job includes a system inspection so we can flag any issues, like leaks or damaged ducts, that we come across along the way.
Most residential duct cleaning appointments take between 2 and 4 hours, depending on the size of your home, the number of vents, and how accessible your ductwork is. Larger homes, multi-system properties, or jobs that include add-ons like dryer vent or AC coil cleaning may take longer.
For most homes, yes — especially if it's been several years since the last cleaning, you've had recent renovation work, you have pets, or household members deal with allergies or respiratory sensitivities. Clean ducts help your HVAC system circulate air more efficiently, which can reduce strain on your furnace and air conditioner as well as improve indoor air quality.
Yes. Dryer vent cleaning is available as a stand-alone service or bundled into our Platinum Package alongside full duct, furnace, and AC coil cleaning. If your dryer vent exhausts at ground level and is accessible within 15 feet, we can typically clean it the same day as your duct cleaning appointment.
Our packages start at $280+HST for a Bronze Package covering complete supply and return duct cleaning for up to 10 vents. Silver ($329+HST) adds furnace cleaning for up to 15 vents, Gold ($399+HST) covers up to 19 vents and adds AC coil cleaning, and Platinum ($499+HST) covers up to 23 vents and adds dryer and exhaust vent cleaning. Every package includes drill brush cleaning and before & after photos. See our full pricing page for details on add-ons like bathroom exhaust fans and central vacuum cleaning.
Removing built-up dust, pet dander, and other allergens from your ductwork can reduce the amount of irritants circulating through your home every time your HVAC system runs. Many customers with seasonal allergies or sensitivities notice a difference in indoor air quality after a cleaning, though duct cleaning works best alongside regular filter changes rather than as a replacement for them.
Yes, someone needs to be home to provide access to your furnace, ductwork, and any areas our technicians need to reach, such as attic or crawlspace access for dryer vents in some homes.
