Blower Wheel Cleaning FAQs
What is a blower wheel and why does it matter?
The blower wheel is the fan inside your furnace or air handler that moves air through your duct system. When it’s dirty, airflow is restricted and dust can continue circulating through the home.
How do I know if my blower wheel needs cleaning?
Common signs include weak airflow, excessive dust, noisy operation, or airflow issues that remain after duct cleaning.
Is blower wheel cleaning the same as air duct cleaning?
No. Duct cleaning focuses on the ductwork, while blower wheel cleaning targets the air-moving components inside the HVAC system.
Will blower wheel cleaning improve airflow or efficiency?
If buildup is restricting airflow, cleaning can help restore proper air movement and reduce unnecessary strain on the HVAC system.
Is this safe for my HVAC system?
Yes. The service is performed using methods appropriate for residential & commercial HVAC systems and does not involve mechanical repairs or system modifications.
​
Do you remove the blower wheel to clean it?
Depending on system design and accessibility, the blower wheel may be removed or cleaned in place.
How long does blower wheel cleaning take?
Most cleanings take 1–2 hours, depending on accessibility and buildup.
Do I need to be home during the service?
An adult should be present at the start for access and review. You do not need to supervise the entire process.
Will this fix all heating or cooling issues?
No. Blower wheel cleaning addresses airflow restrictions caused by buildup. Mechanical or refrigerant issues should be handled by an HVAC technician.
​
How often should a blower wheel be cleaned?
Typically every 4-5 years (preferably paired with a duct cleaning), or sooner in homes with pets, high dust levels, or neglected systems.
