Whole-home air system cleaning: ducts, HRV and dryer vent
Free and no obligation · a clear quote before any work starts · you pay only once the job is done and you’ve seen the result.
A home rarely has one appliance that touches the air; it often has four: the furnace and its ducts, the air exchanger, the dryer, and more and more a wall-mounted heat pump. Each builds up its own dirt, and each sends it back into the same rooms. Rather than treating one symptom at a time, we look at the whole system and tell you what really needs it — and what can wait.
In short
Whole-home air system cleaning at Nettoyage Service Plus covers everything that moves air in your home: the duct system and furnace plenum, the air exchanger (HRV or ERV), the dryer vent and any wall-mounted heat pumps. These appliances are connected: cleaning the ducts while leaving a dirty air exchanger reintroduces dust the very next day. Grouping them into one visit also avoids paying for several trips.
When should you call?
- You just bought and nothing shows when the system was last cleaned.
- Dust comes back quickly despite cleaning and new filters.
- Windows stream with condensation in winter even though the house has an air exchanger.
- The dryer needs two cycles to dry one load.
- A smell comes out of the vents or the heat pump at start-up.
- Someone in the family has allergies or asthma.
What's included
- System overview before the visit
- Cleaning of the ducts and furnace plenum
- Air exchanger (HRV / ERV) cleaning
- Dryer vent clearing
- Wall-mounted heat pump washing, as needed
- A single trip for everything
- Typical duration
- About 2 to 3 hours for the ducts of a single-family home, plus about 1 to 1.5 hours per wall unit.
- Recommended frequency
- Each appliance has its own rhythm: NADCA recommends inspecting ducts every two years, exchanger and heat-pump manufacturers recommend yearly maintenance, and a dryer vent should be checked every year. Grouping the work lets you follow those rhythms without multiplying visits.

How we work
Ducts and furnace
The duct system is put under negative pressure with the 4,000 CFM collector, every supply and return gets 200 PSI compressed air, trunks are brushed and the ductwork is sanitized.
Air exchanger and dryer
The exchanger’s recovery core, filters, fans and drain are cleaned; the dryer vent is brushed along its full length to the outside hood.
Wall units and final check
If there is a wall-mounted heat pump, it is opened and washed. Everything is restarted and checked before we leave.
Frequently asked questions
Can everything be done in the same visit?
Yes, that is the point. Ducts, air exchanger, dryer vent and wall units are done in the same appointment; total time depends on the number of outlets and units, and we give it to you on the phone.
What do you clean in a condo without ducts?
Many condos have no forced-air system: air goes through an air exchanger and a wall-mounted heat pump. In that case we clean those two appliances, the dryer vent and the exchanger outlets.
Where should I start on a tight budget?
With whatever carries a safety or health stake: a blocked dryer vent is a fire risk, and a dirty air exchanger in an airtight house is felt immediately. We will tell you frankly what can wait.
Why choose Nettoyage Service Plus
- Our own technicians, NADCA and IICRC certified. Nothing is subcontracted — that’s how we can stand behind the results.
- Your home is protected. Floors and walkways are protected on arrival; everything is put back and tidied before we leave.
- No surprises. Travel is included in the quote. If what we find on site differs from what was described, we talk to you before continuing — never after.
- You pay once the job is done and you’ve seen it. If anything isn’t right, we redo it — just tell us before we leave or call the same day.
- You don’t have to stay home. Someone just needs to let us in and show us the equipment and vents — after that, you’re free to go about your day.
Why don’t we post prices? Because the cost depends on the number of vents, the size of the home, the system’s actual condition and access. All questions →
