Duct Cleaning Services
Accumulating dust, dirt, and other contaminants can severely reduce the quality of air in your home and increase heating and cooling costs by forcing your system to work harder than it needs to. We provide home duct cleaning services for any size or type of property. Our services include complete solutions for cleaning furnaces and dryer vents as well as sanitizing their ducts to ensure healthy air quality. Duct cleaning is also an ideal way to reduce your heating costs and minimize possible fire hazards. They also make sure that your equipment warranties remain active.
Furnace Cleaning Services
The furnace in your home works very hard to maintain an appropriate level of comfort, no matter what the outside temperature may be. Without proper care and maintenance from professionals, it can easily fall into disrepair and probably at the most inconvenient moment possible. That’s why we provide both general and emergency services to help you keep your furnaces functioning smoothly and your home comfortable to live in.
Air Conditioner Cleaning Services
Your air conditioner plays an important part in the air quality inside your home. When the weather outside is too hot for comfort, cool air can become hard to come by with your air conditioner running non-stop. In such a case, dirty coils and fans are adding extra strain on your AC system, reducing its lifespan. Routine cleaning services ensure your AC system is running at peak efficiency and protects your investment while keeping your home cool and comfortable.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Services
The connection between your clothes dryer and the outdoor dryer vents slowly get filled up with lint and various types of debris. While this may not seem dangerous, it can be a huge fire hazard to let this lint build up inside the vent. That’s why it’s important to thoroughly and regularly clean your dryer vents. We can help you keep up the regular maintenance of your dryer vents and other ducts to ensure the safety of your family and your house.

FAQ
-
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE MY AIR DUCTS CLEANED?
If your ducts have been cleaned using the HI-TECH™ rotary brush method, approximately 2-3 years. However, sometimes it’s good to have the ducts cleaned more frequently, particularly in the following situations:
- If you’ve had renovation work done
- If you have had mice problems
- If you live on a busy street or by a farm field.
-
HOW MUCH DUST WILL COME OUT OF MY DUCT SYSTEM?
The average house can produce 3-5 lbs. of fine dust particles.
-
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE MY DRYER DUCT CLEANED?
Cleaning is recommended every 18-24 months.
-
WILL I NOTICE A DIFFERENCE AFTER THE CLEANING IS COMPLETED?
There will be a difference in air quality of your home, and customers typically have experienced less dust in general in their houses.
-
WILL THERE BE LOTS OF DUST IN THE HOUSE DURING THE CLEANING?
Because of the suction that we create in the duct system when capturing the dust, you will not notice any additional dust in the home.
-
WHAT IS THE NORMAL PRICE RANGE FOR AIR DUCT CLEANING SERVICES?
Costs vary due to a number of factors: square footage and number of floors in your home, number of vents, and any added services such as sanitizing, deodorizing, and dryer vent cleaning. We’re standing by, ready to provide you a quote.
Remember, you get what you pay for. Many moonlighters claim to provide similar services at discount rates, however they will often only attempt to blow dust out of your vents, leaving you with an incomplete job and a big mess all over your home. -
WHAT ARE SANITIZERS AND WHY WOULD THEY NEED TO BE USED?
All anti-microbial treatments must be intended for use in HVAC systems. To make certain of this, ask to see the chemical’s Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). There are no registered anti-microbial products designated for use on porous system surfaces, such as fibreglass.
-
HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE TO CLEAN A TYPICAL RESIDENTIAL HVAC SYSTEM?
Several factors determine how much time it takes to clean a residential HVAC system:
- The size of the home
- The number of systems to be cleaned
- The extent of the contamination
- The number of HVAC technicians performing the service
It’s a good idea to ask at least two contractors for a time estimate so that you have an idea of how long you should expect the service to take—this will also help you judge how thoroughly a contractor plans to be.
-
HOW CAN WE DETERMINE IF THE HVAC SYSTEM CLEANING WAS EFFECTIVE?
The best way to determine if the HVAC system cleaning was effective is to perform a visual inspection of the system before and after cleaning. If any dust or debris can be seen during the visual inspection, the system should not be considered cleaned. While you can perform your own visual inspection using a flash light and mirror, a professional cleaning contractor should be able to allow you better access to system components and perhaps the use of specialized inspection tools. In addition, following this post-cleaning check list can help to ensure a top quality job.
