However, there are several factors that affect cost and time estimates: the type of ductwork system size system accessibility number of crew members required level of contamination environmental factors Beware of advertisements that have “whole house specials” for very low prices. Many of them only include only the main ducts and charge extra for the air handler, blower fans, coils, registers and cutting access. Upon arrival, many of these companies then up-charge to excessive amounts. 
While making the home more energy efficient, many homeowners often overlook one of the biggest sources of energy, the HVAC system. Your home’s source of heat and air is the lungs of your house, taking air in and breathing it back out through a series of air duct pathways. As your home goes through the seasons, dirt, dust, pet dander and more contaminants build up in your system’s air ducts , making it harder for the unit to reach that desired comfort level. As a result, more energy is required to function which adds to your energy bill. Maintaining your HVAC system doesn’t just help you cut back on your energy costs, it also helps avoid expensive repairs and replacements in the future. The harder your system works to circulate air throughout your home, the more likely it will break down from overuse. Even with regular air filter changes, your air ducts will need to be cleaned to ensure maximum efficiency in the long run. This involves hiring a company that is a member of the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) to inspect and clean your system.
