Pets bring life, entertainment, and companionship to your home. However, pets can also bring odor, dirt and mess. Occasionally, the pet odor even finds its way into the air ducts. This happens when pets urinate into the ducts, or simply because pet debris becomes trapped in the ducts and creates a foul odor. Eliminating these odors from your ducts also reduces pet odor in your home.

Here are some helpful tips to help determine if you have a problem, and how to resolve it:

  1. Determine whether the pet odors are due to urine in the ducts. Check any floor vents your pets may have access to and shine a black light around the vent and into the duct. Urine stains will glow under the black light. If urine stains are present, clean the area around the vent with a pet urine cleaner (available in pet stores), or a solution of 1 part vinegar and 1 part baking soda. This prevents the animal from continuing to urinate in the vent.

  2. Hire a professional air duct cleaning company to come into your home and clean out your duct work. Professional air duct cleaners use special tools designed specifically to clear out pet dander and debris (as well as other dust and debris) from your duct work. This eliminates odors in the ducts as well as helping reduce colds, coughing and allergies due to inhaled pollutants.
  1. Consider using a product designed for eliminating air duct odors. Products are sprayed or vaporized into the ducts and as the system cycles the product will work its way into the system, freshening as it goes. These types of products treat odor problems by destroying odor-causing bacteria, covering odors with a more pleasant smell, or actually removing odor particles that have become stuck in the ducts.

  2. Maintain the cleaned ducts by regularly cleaning the area around the vents to prevent build-up of pet debris as well as to prevent pets from using the vents as a bathroom. You may also want to consider regular air duct cleaning to maintain clean ducts and prevent pet odors from accumulating.
