Is HVAC duct cleaning necessary? The intake air ducts pre-filter can accumulate dust but that is what the filter is for. Post-filter ducts are filled with cleaned air flowing through them. What am I missing?



My neighbor owns his own HVAC company, and has told me straight out that it's a waste of money. FWIW.


Floor mounted egress ducts are often covered with vents that have quarter inch gaps between each vent slot. All sorts of crap can fall in there, especially if you have children and pets.
