A clear, step-by-step approach to every air duct cleaning project we take on.
We inspect your ductwork using cameras and visual access points to assess contamination levels — dust buildup, mold presence, debris, and pest evidence — and determine the right cleaning approach for your system.
KIC Refrigeration uses the source removal method recommended by NADCA for duct cleaning in Laplace, LA. Our negative air machine generates 10,000+ CFM of suction at the trunk while our technician agitates each branch with rotating brushes sized to the duct diameter. All debris is captured in a HEPA-filtered unit — nothing recirculates into your home.
Our Laplace technician cleans the interior surfaces of your air handler including the blower wheel, blower housing, evaporator coil face, and plenums. These components collect the heaviest buildup and directly affect both indoor air quality and system performance.
We re-inspect the duct system after cleaning to verify all runs are clear, take after photos for comparison, replace your air filter, and measure airflow at registers to confirm improved delivery.
Common questions about air duct cleaning costs, timelines, and what to expect.
Professional air duct cleaning in Laplace typically costs $300 to $600 for a standard home with a single HVAC system and 8 to 15 supply registers. Homes with multiple HVAC systems, extensive ductwork runs, or severe contamination from mold, rodents, or post-construction debris may run $600 to $1,200. Be cautious of companies advertising $99 or $149 whole-house duct cleaning specials — legitimate source removal cleaning requires a negative air machine, mechanical agitation tools, and 3 to 5 hours of skilled labor. Lowball pricing usually means a quick run-through with a shop vacuum that leaves most of the contamination in place. KIC Refrigeration provides honest, transparent pricing for genuine duct cleaning in Laplace.
Yes. Dust and debris buildup on the blower wheel, evaporator coil surface, and inside duct runs creates measurable airflow restriction. When airflow drops below the designed 400 CFM per ton, the system works harder and runs longer cycles to reach thermostat setpoint, consuming more energy and putting extra stress on the compressor. A heavily contaminated evaporator coil can reduce cooling capacity by 10 to 20 percent. Cleaning restores designed airflow through the system, reducing energy consumption by an estimated 5 to 15 percent depending on contamination severity. KIC Refrigeration cleans the blower wheel, blower housing, and evaporator coil surface in addition to all duct runs during every duct cleaning project at your Laplace home for maximum efficiency improvement.
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends professional duct cleaning every 3 to 5 years for most homes. However, several factors can shorten that interval for Laplace properties. Homes with indoor pets that shed hair and dander, smokers, family members with asthma or severe allergies, recent remodeling or construction, or visible mold growth in or around duct registers should be cleaned more frequently — every 2 to 3 years. New construction homes should be cleaned before occupancy to remove accumulated drywall dust, sawdust, paint overspray, and construction debris that settles inside the ductwork during the building process. KIC Refrigeration inspects your Laplace ducts and recommends a cleaning schedule based on actual conditions.
No. Professional duct cleaning from KIC Refrigeration is designed to contain all dust and debris throughout the entire process at your Laplace home. Our negative air machine puts the duct system under sustained negative pressure, which means air flows inward at every register opening — pulling loosened dust and debris toward the collection unit rather than allowing it to escape into your living space. All dislodged contaminants travel through the duct system into a sealed, HEPA-filtered collection unit that captures particles down to 0.3 microns. We cover floors and furniture near work areas with protective drop cloths, wear shoe covers in your home, and clean up all equipment and materials when the job is complete. Your Laplace home will be as clean as we found it.
