Homeowners in Matthews (Mecklenburg County) call Duct Cleaners Charlotte for furnace cleaning. Matthews is an established suburb southeast of Charlotte, and we show you before-and-after photos so you can see what came out of your system.
Why clean your furnace
Your furnace and blower collect dust, dander and debris that get pushed through the whole house every time the heat comes on. A clean furnace runs safer, heats more evenly and lasts longer. We clean the blower, housing and components so the system that heats your Charlotte home is not also circulating months of built-up dust.
What furnace cleaning includes
- Blower and blower housing cleaned of caked-on dust and debris.
- Furnace cabinet and components wiped down and vacuumed.
- Connected ductwork checked for buildup that feeds back into the furnace.
- Airflow check so the system runs the way it should.

Common questions
How often should I have my furnace cleaned?
Once a year is ideal, usually in the fall before heating season. A clean furnace runs more efficiently, heats more evenly and is less likely to fail on the coldest night of the year.
Is furnace cleaning the same as duct cleaning?
They go together but are not the same. Furnace cleaning focuses on the blower and furnace components; duct cleaning clears the whole duct system. Many homeowners have both done in one visit for the best result.
Do I need a permit to replace my furnace or AC in Matthews?
Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement lists the addition, replacement or change in the design of a heating or air conditioning system as work that needs a permit, even on residential jobs of $40,000 or less. Its office number is 980-314-2633.
Many Matthews homes are from the 1980s and 1990s. Should the ducts be cleaned?
The median Matthews home was built in 1994 (ACS 2020-2024). The U.S. EPA does not recommend routine cleaning and suggests it only as needed, for example for visible mold, rodents or insects, or dust visibly released from registers.
