"I can't say enough about Howell's"
Matt was very professional and polite. He explained everything and showed us pictures of before and after cleaning our outside unit.
Professionally respectful of you, your time and your home.
My experience with Howell’s is only a few months, but everyone, from C.L., the owner, down to and including the gals who answer the phone, everyone is friendly, helpful, and professional. I can’t say enough about this home-town, family-run business.
Today, two fellows (Ricky and A.J.) came to my house to clean the HVAC vents and ducts. They arrived on time, took a walk with me through the house, and explained what they were going to do every step of the way. Since duct cleaning is something one can’t check behind, the homeowner has to ask questions. Better yet is to find that the crew leader is answering your questions before you ask. That tells you that ‘this ain’t their first rodeo.’
Professionally respectful of you, your time and your home. Five stars.

Still Providing Excellent Service
Was so impressed with their work on the install of ductwork that I purchased a maintenance plan. Glad I did and will definitely renew again this upcoming season. Still providing excellent service 2 years later. Honest folks to work with.

Both C.L. and Jason did a good job trying to repair ductwork at my house. Unfortunately, they could not get to the area where there was a problem because of the small crawl space.

I can't say enough about Howell's
I can't say enough about Howell's Heating & Air Conditioning. We have dual heat (heat pump & propane) and have been using them for years in our old house and this house. Matt was very professional and polite. He went about his work checking our system for its annual checkup, and he was so quiet while doing it. He explained everything and showed us pictures of before and after cleaning our outside unit. Very good work.

Answers to Your Top Questions
What signs indicate ducts need cleaning?
Signs that your ducts may need cleaning include visible dust or debris around the vents, unexplained increases in energy bills, reduced airflow, and unusual odors when the HVAC system is running. If you notice frequent allergy symptoms, it may also be a sign of contaminants in the ductwork.
How long does duct cleaning take?
The time required for duct cleaning depends on the size of the system, the level of contamination, and the configuration of the ductwork. On average, a professional duct cleaning service takes between 2 to 4 hours. However, larger homes or systems with more extensive build-up may take longer.
Are there risks with dirty ducts?
Dirty ducts can negatively impact indoor air quality, potentially leading to respiratory problems or allergy symptoms. Accumulated dust, mold, or pests in the ductwork can spread contaminants throughout the home. Additionally, clogged ducts can reduce HVAC efficiency, leading to higher energy bills and increased wear and tear on the system.
Will duct cleaning make my HVAC system more efficient?
Yes, by removing blockages and buildup from the ductwork, duct cleaning can help improve the airflow throughout your HVAC system. This increased efficiency can lead to reduced energy consumption and potentially extend the lifespan of the system by reducing the strain on its components.
