Fast, Reliable HVAC Cleaning Across Conway
Most Conway homes need HVAC cleaning every 18 to 36 months, not the generic 3 to 5 years national guides suggest. Our humid subtropical summers force air conditioners to run constantly, and many houses off Conway Road, Curry Ford Road, and around Lake Conway sit back against unpaved drives or open land that loads dust into return air faster than most people realize. Our HVAC Cleaning team knows the 1970s to 1990s ranch homes here, the flex duct in unconditioned attics, and the mold patterns that form when register-only vacuuming leaves spores behind. If you want a straight answer on whether your ducts actually need work, call us at (850) 750-6095 and we’ll explain exactly what we look for.
Why Cardinal Air Duct Orlando Is Conway’s Preferred HVAC Cleaning Company
We work in Conway every week, so the drive from dispatch is short and the arrival window is real. Our crews know the difference between a 1984 two-story near Lake Margaret and a 1990s single-story off Crystal Lake Drive, because the duct layouts and trouble spots are different. When a homeowner on Semoran Boulevard calls about airflow that dropped after a thunderstorm week, we already suspect humidity entering a torn flex run in the attic before the van arrives.
Omar Haddad leads our team, and he puts his name on the work with the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if the cleaning isn’t right within a full year, we come back and redo it at no charge. That guarantee covers every booking without exception. Our technicians are background-checked, arrive in uniform, and run Rotobrush agitation tools and Nikro HEPA extraction units, not a truck-mounted shop vacuum. You’ll get a written price before any duct is touched, a live trackable arrival window through the Relay Standard booking experience, and before-and-after photos of your own system on the invoice.
Conway homeowners have told us the same thing for years: they don’t want a phone quote that doubles once someone’s in the attic. We don’t work that way. The number we hand you before starting is the number you pay.
Styles & brands we work with
Furnace Cleaning in Conway
Furnace cleaning in Conway matters even in a city where the air conditioner does most of the work, because your furnace shares the same blower, air handler, and ductwork that move cooled air all summer. In a typical 1980s Conway two-story with the furnace in the garage and flex duct running through an unconditioned attic, dust, pet hair, and construction debris settle on the heat exchanger and blower wheel during cooling season. When you fire the heat in December, that buildup burns off as a smell and blows into the living room. A full furnace cleaning for a Conway home runs $220 to $410, depending on system size and access.
Blower Assembly and Heat Exchanger
We pull the blower motor and housing, clean the wheel with compressed air and soft brushes, and inspect the heat exchanger for cracks or rust before reassembling. On homes near the Little Lake Conway floodplain, we see more corrosion on exchanger surfaces because ambient moisture levels stay high year-round.
Filter and Airflow Assessment
Every furnace cleaning includes a static pressure check after the work. Conway’s 1980s and 1990s systems were often sized for the original single-pane windows, so after homeowners upgrade to impact-rated windows, airflow balance shifts and some rooms run hotter or colder. We can tell you if that’s a cleaning issue or a duct-resizing issue.
AC Vent Cleaning in Conway
AC vent cleaning in Conway is not just about wiping register covers. Most of the real contamination sits in the supply and return trunks, the branch runs, and the air handler cabinet, especially in homes where the original fiberglass duct board from the 1980s is now shedding fibers into the airstream. When we clean vents, we remove the registers, agitate the walls of the duct runs, and pull loosened debris out under negative pressure so it goes into the vacuum, not back through your living room. AC vent and duct cleaning for a standard Conway single-family home runs $310 to $550.
Register Removal and Source Removal
We don’t vacuum the first few inches of the register and call it done. We open access points and use Rotobrush agitation tools to scrub the interior walls of the supply and return runs, while the Nikro HEPA unit holds negative pressure on the system. That’s source removal, the standard NADCA-trained cleaners use, and it’s why Conway homeowners choose us after cheaper companies leave the deeper debris untouched.
Flex Duct Inspection
Before we agitate anything in a pre-1990 Conway attic, we run a camera inspection to check flex duct condition. Old flex gets brittle, and aggressive brushing can tear it. If we find damage, you’ll see the photo before we proceed, and you’ll get a written repair quote, never a surprise.
Trusted Brands We Service in Conway
We clean and restore systems built around Trane, Carrier, Rheem, Goodman, and York equipment, and we stock common replacement parts for Conway’s predominant 1970s-1990s installations. If your system has original Aprilaire filtration, we can service the housing and recommend the right media. We also carry Guardsman and Aprilaire filter products for customers who want upgraded filtration after a mold remediation cleaning. Parts availability is rarely a hangup for Conway jobs, because we run enough volume across the area to keep our van stock deep.

AfterCommon HVAC Cleaning Problems We See in Conway Homes
- Brittle 1980s flex duct in attic runs. Conway homes built between roughly 1980 and 1995 often have flex duct that has baked in attic heat for 30 to 40 years. If a tech skips the camera inspection and goes straight to aggressive brushing, the duct tears and the homeowner gets an expensive repair they didn’t budget for.
- Mold returning within months after register-only vacuuming. We see this constantly in homes off Hoffner Avenue and near Barber Park: a company vacuums the registers, leaves the spores in the air handler and duct board, and the mold reblooms within a few months. The attic humidity in Conway never really dries out from June through September.
- Fiberglass duct board shedding into supply registers. Pre-1990 Conway houses often have original fiberglass duct board as the plenum material. It breaks down over decades and releases insulation fibers that pile up in supply registers and coat the evaporator coil.
- Dust loading from unpaved roads and lake access drives. Homes backing up to unpaved lanes or with crushed-shell driveways near Lake Conway or Lake Margaret pull fine dust into the return side constantly. We see filters fully plugged in six to eight weeks in some of these houses.

FAQs About HVAC Cleaning in Conway
We recommend every 18 to 30 months for Conway homes on unpaved roads or gravel drives. The dust loading is simply higher than the 3-to-5-year guides assume. If you live off a maintained paved street near Lake Conway, you might stretch to 24 to 36 months. A quick filter check every 60 days is the cheapest way to monitor it; if the filter is fully plugged in under 90 days, you’re due for a cleaning sooner than the generic interval. Call (850) 750-6095 and describe where your home sits, and we’ll give you an honest interval for your specific block.
Yes. Conway’s summer heat and daily thunderstorms keep attic humidity high enough that dust inside ducts absorbs moisture and becomes a mold food source. The AC running constantly means the air handler stays cold while the attic around it is hot and wet, which creates condensation inside uninsulated or poorly insulated duct runs. We find active mold stains in a meaningful share of Conway systems every single week. The fix is source removal cleaning with HEPA extraction, plus fixing the humidity entry points, not just spraying a biocide and walking away.
The risk is that an untrained technician disturbs the fiberglass and sends insulation fibers into your supply registers and living spaces. Duct board from the 1980s is often degrading already, and aggressive brushing accelerates the shedding. Our protocol is a camera inspection first, then controlled agitation with negative pressure so any released fibers go into the Nikro HEPA unit, not into your air. We’ll also tell you honestly when a duct board plenum is too far gone and needs replacement rather than cleaning. Call (850) 750-6095 and ask us to inspect yours before anyone touches it.
Yes, and here’s why: the furnace and the AC share the same blower and air handler. Dust and debris that accumulate during cooling season settle on the blower wheel and heat exchanger whether or not you ever turn on the heat. When you eventually do fire the furnace, that accumulation burns off and smells, and the blower runs out of balance wearing the bearings quicker. A furnace cleaning every few years, even in Conway’s AC-heavy climate, protects the shared components and keeps your airflow stable. The cost is lower than an AC-side deep clean, typically $220 to $410.
We camera-inspect every flex run before agitation. You should see damage on the inspection footage before anyone starts cleaning, and you should get a written repair quote if the duct is beyond cleaning. Warning signs in your home include register dust that reappears within days, one or two rooms that never cool, or a whistling sound from the ceiling when the system runs. Brittle flex from the 1980s and 1990s is the most common failure in Conway attics, and the honest answer is that some old flex cannot be cleaned, only replaced. We’ll show you the proof and let you decide.
