Improve air quality, lower energy bills, and extend the life of your heat pump - with a deep clean from Pure Air Cleaning.
Professional Heat Pump Cleaning in Nova Scotia
Nova Scotia's Mini-Split Cleaning Specialists
Your heat pump works hard every single day – heating your home through bitter Nova Scotia winters and cooling it on those sticky summer days. But over time, dust, mould, pet hair and allergens build up deep inside the unit, and your heat pump quietly starts circulating all of that through your home.
At Pure Air Cleaning, we’ve been taking care of heat pumps across the Quad Counties for years. We’re fully uniformed, insured and WCB covered — and we treat your home like our own. We carefully move furniture, lay down drop sheets, foam-soak and pressure wash the inside of your unit, then run it to make sure everything is working perfectly before we leave.
The result? Cleaner air, a quieter unit, and lower energy bills — and you’ll actually be able to tell the difference.

What's Included in a Full Heat Pump Clean?
Every clean covers your unit from top to bottom — inside and out. No shortcuts, no rush jobs. Just a thorough, professional clean every single time.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Removes built-up dust and mould from the coil that conditions your air — the most important part of the clean.
Blower Fan Wheel
We apply a specialist mould-killing foam to the blower wheel, let it penetrate, then blast it clean with a high-pressure rinse — removing every trace of dust, mould and debris from the fins that other cleaners miss.
Filters & Screens Deep Cleaned
We thoroughly deep clean all filters and screens — removing built-up dust, mould and debris so your unit breathes freely again.
Full Unit Clean - Inside & Out
We clean the front panel, louvres, casing and interior housing – inside and out. We even wipe down the remote. Your unit will look as good as it performs.
Drain Pan & Drain Line
We clean the drain pan as standard. If the drain line is blocked we can clear it for a small additional charge – though with regular cleaning this is rarely needed!
Full System Check
We run the unit before and after every clean, and perform a full system reset — so everything is working perfectly before we leave.

Signs Your Heat Pump Needs Cleaning
- Musty or stale smell when the unit runs
- Reduced airflow from the vents
- Unit running longer than usual to reach temperature
- Visible dust or dark residue around the vents
- Allergy or respiratory symptoms worsening indoors
- It’s been more than 12 months since your last clean
We Also Clean Floor & Ceiling Heat Pumps
Not all heat pumps are up on the wall. If you have a floor-mounted mini split – sometimes called a floor-standing heat pump or simply a floor unit – we clean those too, using the same thorough deep-clean process as our wall-mounted units.
Floor-mounted heat pumps sit low to the ground, which means they’re right in the path of dust, pet hair, and debris every single day. That buildup happens fast – and if left uncleaned, it circulates straight back into your home.
“We also clean ceiling-mounted units and ceiling cassette heat pumps – no matter where your unit is installed, we’ve got it covered”

Common Questions About Heat Pump Cleaning
How often should I clean my heat pump?
Most manufacturers recommend once a year for most homes — every 6 months if you have pets, allergies, or run the unit heavily.
How long does a heat pump clean take?
Most residential cleans take between 45 minutes and 1.5 hours depending on the unit size and how long since its last service.
Do I need to be home?
You don’t need to be home — as long as we have access to the property we can take care of everything. We’ll send your invoice by email or text once we’re done. Just let us know your preference when you book!
Will cleaning my heat pump lower my energy bills?
Yes – a dirty coil and blower can reduce efficiency significantly. A clean unit runs less to achieve the same temperature, which saves you money.
