Things that you will need

Take your house cleaner like a detergent or bleach, and mix it with water in a 1:3 ratio. Keep rags or small prices of cloth with you. You will also require a screwdriver, plastic zip ties and a paint brush.

The Steps

Here are some steps which you should go through,

  • Remove the inner and outer liners that are connected to the ducts. Do this for connections with the unit, wall and ceiling. Prepare a cleaning solution in a bucket as given above and soak some rags in it. Squeeze the rags so that excess water is eliminated and then clean the inner duct liner with them. Try to push in the rag as far as possible. Please note that you will only be able to clean the ends of the duct this way.
  • If you have a vacuum cleaner, use it to reach farther in.
  • When you have cleaned the duct, treat it with a mastic coat over the connecter. Slide in the inner liner once again, and seal the duct with a plastic zip tie. You can also use a Panduit strap for this purpose.
  • Remove the outer liner and insulation. Clean the duct as mentioned above. Once again, apply a coat of mastic and then seal the duct with a Panduit strap.

Please note that the above method suitable for basic cleaning only. It will just remove duct and debris from the ends and will not clean the whole duct. At times, air ducts may become ingested as well. If that is the case, you cannot treat them by this method.

If you want a more thorough cleaning that involves the whole of your heating system, or want to remove mold growth from your ducts, you will have to utilize the services of a company that offers air duct cleaning in Orlando, FL.
