Why is Regular Cleaning Important?

Air Duct Cleaning can be beneficial because it helps your equipment run more efficiently, increasing productivity and longevity, and can possibly alleviate allergy or asthma symptoms related to mold, mildew, and dust buildup in the air. During the cleaning process, we thoroughly clear out any bacteria, viruses and pollens that cause seasonal allergies, then use antimicrobial sprays and cleaners to finish the job.

Duct inspection cameras help us locate trouble spots in your vents and pick up things you can’t see, but may be causing an undesirable smell in your home. With the assistance of our cameras, we identify the source of those smells, giving you peace of mind and an explanation as to why you were experiencing these issues.

Dryer vent cleaning is also included with our ductwork services uncleaned dryer vents are the primary cause of home fires. A regular cleaning service for your vents will extend the life of your dryer and prevent a tragedy.

How Often Should You Get Your Air Ducts Cleaned?

How often you should clean your air ducts depends on the age of your system and your location, as well as the ages, health and number of people living in your home.

Age of the System: The longer your air ventilation system has been in place, the more likely it is that things have accumulated inside like dust and allergens to small items that children or pets may have dropped into the vents. We specialize in cleaning of historic homes, where there has been multiple generations of buildup of dust and debris in the duct work.

Location: Homes in rural areas will accumulate dust differently than in urban areas. Rural areas tend to see more irritants such as dust from gravel roads, wild grasses, pollens, insects, and even small animals. Urban areas will likely accumulate less of these, but will still see general dust and grime from nearby streets and pollutants.

Traffic Level: The more residents or guests who spend time in the home, the more dirt that will build up within vents. If you own a large, multi-family building, have a large family, or host guests regularly, you will need to have your air ducts cleaned more often.

Age and Health of Residents: If the people living in your home are older or experience respiratory health issues such as allergies or asthma, you likely keep your windows closed more often, resulting in a higher buildup of dust. This accumulation will require more regular cleans, which will help with the management of any allergies or respiratory issues.

Process

We utilize a “Three Pass System” to give your home the thorough cleaning that it deserves. Our system looks like this:

• First Pass: HEPA vacuum system to clear ducts and vents of dust, dirt and pollen.
• Second Pass: Antimicrobial spray to clear away bacteria and viruses left by debris and dust.
• Third Pass: Odor spray to ensure that your home smells fresh.

Our duct cleaning system consists of our high-velocity HEPA vacuum and scrubbing attachment to thoroughly clean and capture years of dust and dirt buildup. Following the HEPA vacuum, we will coat the inside of your ducts with antimicrobial mist, which is designed to kill bacteria and unwanted odors. Additionally, we will rid your supplies, returns and dryer vents of any lint and debris that has accumulated since their last cleaning. The dryer vent will then receive a sanitizing mist cleaner as a disinfectant and deodorizing tool. Finally, we clean all registers to ensure that all air coming out of your system is clean and dust-free.

Commercial Duct Cleaning Services

We also offer commercial duct cleaning services for businesses such as schools, medical facilities, offices, and even for industries with dust collection systems such as lumber and saw mills. The services we provide for commercial and industrial cleaning are similar to those for residences, but on a larger scale. This includes preventative and general maintenance services such as duct cleaning, flexible duct cleaning, furnace blower wheel cleaning and duct inspection camera work.

In addition to being a larger job than residential cleanings, it often requires more specialized tools and skill sets, but we are set up to do it and do it well. For example, if a commercial duct system is on the roof, we often tie in through ceiling tiles. We make sure your system gets the attention it deserves.
