How Does Ductwork Get Damaged?

Ductwork is essential for proper air circulation in homes, however, over time they can become damaged. Damaged air ducts mean your heating and cooling systems aren’t as effective, because the warm or cool air isn’t able to flow through them properly. The most common culprits behind damaged ducts include installation errors, mold growth, rust and corrosion, neglected maintenance, broken seals, and impact damage. Additionally, air ducts that are outdated or made of older materials are prone to damage.  

As your duct system is such an integral part of your home, it’s important you watch for any signs that might indicate that your air ducts have been damaged and are in need of repair. 

How Can You Tell if Your Ductwork Is Damaged?


  • The temperature of your home varies between rooms
  • The level of airflow from your HVAC system has greatly reduced
  • There is an excessive amount of dust buildup on your vents and throughout your home
  • The air ducts are producing odd booming, whistling, or popping sounds when your HVAC unit starts up  
  • There is a mold or mildewy odor wafting from your vents
  • The air ducts have holes, cracks, dents, or other signs of visible damage
  • There is a sharp rise in your monthly utility bill
  • The ductwork has been overrun by pests

If you have noticed any of the above issues, be sure to contact the Sacramento duct repair experts at Big Mountain Heating & Air right away for service.

Is Air Duct Cleaning Necessary?

It can be easy to ignore air ducts, especially because they’re designed to stay out of sight. However, it’s important to have proper cleaning and maintenance done on your ductwork to keep it working efficiently and to prevent damage to the entire HVAC system. Over time, ductwork traps debris from your home that can clog the duct and reduce airflow if unchecked. With dust, pet hair, and dander in the way, the conditioned air from the unit can’t get where it needs to go. This will then impact your air conditioner or heating system's ability to function properly. That's why it's important you invest in regular duct cleaning to help keep your Sacramento home comfortable and your indoor air clean. 

What Happens if Air Ducts Are Not Cleaned?


  • Mold can start to grow within the ductwork
  • Your HVAC system can become strained and overworked trying to produce adequate airflow  
  • Allergy and asthma symptoms can be triggered
  • You may begin having other health-related problems, such as headaches, fatigue, colds, coughing, and other sinus or respiratory issues
  • Your home’s air will be exposed to harmful contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, pollen, as well as debris and particles from building materials, amongst other pollutants 

How Often Should Air Ducts Be Cleaned?

Typically, it’s recommended you have your ductwork cleaned every three to five years to prevent debris buildup and to improve indoor air qualityso you can breathe easier in your home. However, you may need an additional or more frequent air duct cleaning depending on certain factors. These factors might include the number of household occupants there are,  if you own pets, whether you or any other member of the residence suffers from allergies, and if there are signs of mold.  We recommend consulting with our Sacramento air duct cleaning team who can evaluate the current state and condition of your ductwork to determine if service is necessary.
