When is the best time to clean my furnace and air ducts?
According to Twin Cities Furnace Cleaning, there are a few reasons why many would agree that SPRING is the best time to clean your furnace and air ducts. Because over the winter, while the furnace is running, the furnace and especially the air ducts get nice and dry. When the HVAC system is dry it is slightly easier to clean. Not to mention it makes a great addition to your "spring cleaning" projects!
In the SUMMER when you are running your A/C here in Minnesota, the air can get really humid and therefore makes it slightly more difficult to clean. Also you may waste energy by having the door propped open for the vacuum hose (if using truck mounted equipment).
As far as getting the furnace and air ducts cleaned in the WINTER, again, many people don't like to have their doors opened (if you use a truck mounted vacuum) for extended periods of time because of the heat loss. Plus unfortunately sometimes the cleaners end up tracking in snow and dirt.
During the FALL furnace and air duct cleaning companies can get busy and can and do charge more for their services. If they are really busy you may not be able to schedule an appointment for up to a week and sometimes they will have to reschedule appointments due to the fact that they are just simply overflowing with work.
Either way, the best time to clean your furnace and air ducts is "when they're dirty" and if you have the time and money to schedule and appointment.

Thanks for the overview related to the cleaning of furnace ducts. While I always realized the importance of cleaning furnace ducts as well as the duct work associated with a clothes dryer, I had never considered the fact that the time of year when the cleaning was completed was also a factor. However, after reading the information you presented, I can clearly see why having this work done in the spring is the best possible option. Thanks!

Air duct cleaning should be done periodically and as long as it is needed. Right now, the air is more polluted so we need to check our air duct filters regularly. You may clean your filters as frequent as necessary especially if there is a member of your family who is allergic to dust.
