# OUR HIGHLIGHTS

Benefits of Duct Cleaning

The air ducts in your home can gather dust over time. The duct system transports the air brought into your home by an HVAC system, which means it can distribute pollen, dirt, and other contaminants that come from outside. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), indoor air quality (IAQ) is usually worse than the air quality we breathe outside. You can mitigate the effects of dirt and dust in your home by scheduling an appointment for duct cleaning, which will provide you with the following benefits.

Improve Your IAQ

Residential air duct cleaning removes contaminants like dust, pet fur or dander, and cigarette smoke particles. Vent cleaning can also take care of issues like mold, bacteria, and viruses that circulate through your vents when they become dirty.

Reduce Dusting

Dusting can become a tiresome chore, and you may have to dust more frequently if your air vents get dirty. Ducts can spread dust from one room of your house to the next, increasing your cleaning time.



Get Rid of Odors

Do you notice foul odors spreading throughout your home without any noticeable source? You may have dust, rodents and dirt built up in your vents in this situation. We can scrub out your system and improve the smell of the air in your home.

Lower Energy Costs

Your HVAC system pushes air through the vents in your home. Your HVAC system has to work much harder if dust and debris are clogging your coils and vents in your home. Dirty ducts can also raise the costs to heat and cool your home while making the entire process less efficient.

Steps in Residential Air Duct Cleaning

Our team handles every aspect of air duct clean-up. We can walk you through the entire process so that you feel confident about what to expect when crews show up at your property. We start by laying down drop cloths to keep dirt and dust off your floors.

After we ensure your property is protected, we begin the cleaning process, as outlined below.

01

Check Your HVAC System

Before starting the cleaning process, crews usually allow your HVAC system to cycle through once. Listening to a cycle lets us check that the system functions properly, and we can inform you if we notice any points of concern with the system.

02

Set Up Our Vacuum

We use a pressure vacuum to carry out air duct cleaning. The force of the vacuum keeps dust from escaping and floating through the air. We connect our vacuum to a trunk line while blocking all of the registers in your home.

03

Scrub Your System

We use mechanical brushes and wipes to clean all connections, vents, and boots in your system. We also air wash these components to make sure they’re thoroughly clean.

04

Handle the Trunk Lines

The larger supply and return trunk lines require different cleaning techniques. We use whips, jetters and brushes to thoroughly scrub down these lines so they cannot re-contaminate the rest of the vent system.

05

Clean the Furnace

Finally, members of our team handle the clean-up for your furnace. We clean up the:

  • Blower
  • Doors
  • Baseplate
  • Heating and cooling coils


Our team uses a specialized liquid cleaner to finish off the furnace cleaning process.

Once we finish, you have a vent system that’s cleaned from top to bottom.

Take Care of Your Air Duct System

You can take steps to protect your air duct system year-round, extending its life and ensuring that it continues to function at peak efficiency.

Scheduling regular air duct cleaning can help prolong the life of your system.

You can also take other proactive steps, such as:

  • Vacuuming and dusting regularly
  • Replacing your HVAC air filters on a set schedule

Make sure that you use the appropriate HVAC filters in your system. Your filters need to fit correctly inside the system, or dust and other debris can sneak past them, entering the vents and spreading through your home.

Additionally, you should make sure your filters have the proper MERV rating. HVAC systems use different ratings, and you can usually find this information on the paperwork that came with your system when you purchased it.

Taking these steps—and scheduling regular duct cleaning—can keep your vent system in pristine condition for many years to come.

Air Duct Cleaning Cost

Some companies give you a flat air duct cleaning cost, such as a rate of $299.99 to complete the cleaning. However, these companies rarely complete a total scrub down for your duct system. They may avoid cleaning the return, supply ducts and coils as part of this deal, allowing your system to become re-contaminated quickly.

Our team can provide you with an estimate of the costs to clean your heating and cooling system.
