A chemical vapor deposition chamber has a vacuum exhaust line extending therefrom. Material is deposited over a first plurality of substrates within the deposition chamber under conditions effective to deposit effluent product over internal walls of the vacuum exhaust line. At least a portion of the vacuum exhaust line is isolated from the deposition chamber. While isolating, a cleaning fluid is flowed to the vacuum exhaust line effective to at least reduce thickness of the effluent product over the internal walls within the vacuum exhaust line from what it was prior to initiating said flowing. After said flowing, the portion of the vacuum exhaust line and the deposition chamber are provided in fluid communication with one another and material is deposited over a second plurality of substrates within the deposition chamber under conditions effective to deposit effluent product over internal walls of the vacuum exhaust line.
