- Step 1: Remove the floor and wall registers with a drill. Then, remove the vent itself and wash it with hot, soapy water.
- Step 2: Attach a cleaning brush firmly to the tip of the drill, then stick it inside the duct to wipe the surfaces off. Be careful, this step can be extremely dusty, so people with dust allergies might need some assistance.
- Step 3: Once the walls of the vent have been dusted with the drill’s brush, stick a vacuum cleaner hose into the vent and suck up the remaining debris.
- Step 4: After vacuuming, grab a damp microfiber cloth and reach as far into the vent as you can. Scrub the walls to remove any particularly stubborn patches of gunk. You might want to spray a little cleaner on the cloth before starting.
- Step 5: Wipe the area around the outside of the vent and return the clean register to its place.
