Minneapolis Duct Cleaning MN

Does Duct Cleaning Help

A Twin Cities homeowner doesn’t have to go far to learn the benefits of duct cleaning. When suffering from allergies, a trip to the local allergy clinic and they discover that, among other things (like mattress cleaning, and freezing pillows, etc), duct cleaning ranks high on the list of allergy proofing a house. A conversation with any HVAC (Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning) technician and a Minneapolis homeowner will also discover that the furnace needs to be cleaned on an annual basis. Annual furnace cleaning is recommended by all manufacturers.

House Getting Dusty Faster - Try Duct Cleaning

One of the most common complaints we hear is; 'my house is getting dustier faster than it used too'. It only stands to reason that if it has been more than a couple years since you last had your air ducts cleaned, your duct work is loaded with dust. When your furnace (or a/c) fan kicks on, the dust that is in your air ducts will get blown around the house.

If you live in the Minneapolis MN area and would like to schedule duct cleaning for your Twin Cities home, please give us a call. Generally, we can get you on the next days route. Schedule your duct cleaning online or call 651-653-4704.

Duct Cleaning Question Answered on our Blog

Below you will find an actual question we were asked by a potential customer on our Duct-911 blog today. The comment on our duct cleaning blog was in response to the post "How Much Should Air Duct Cleaning cost?".

"How can an air duct cleaning actually cost less than 200.00?"

This customer is not the first to ask this question, we hear it all the time when people call in. We decided to post our reply so others could be reassured that, yes, the price really is $99!

Austin says:

How can an air duct cleaning actually cost less than 200.00 dollars given the time it takes and everything else? This site makes me wonder how someone can actually do this job correctly for just $99. I have had many quotes and this is no where near the price. I was told that to correctly have he ducts cleaned that everything in the air system needed cleaned and had to be done by a licensed hvac contractor….so how are you able to do it correctly for $99….or is this a bait n switch.

Dave Trosdahl says:

The price is most definitely correct! - We hear concerns like yours all the time. First you need to decide what level of clean you want. 100% clean will cost you serious money (think camera, 4 hours and $400+++). If you just want the ducts thoroughly cleaned then $99 is the price. For $99 ALL your duct work gets thoroughly cleaned. If a camera was sent through the ducts, yes some residue may or may not remain. For most homeowners that’s good enough. For others, they may feel more comfortable having the camera crew out and spend lots of time and money on air duct cleaning. We find that most of our customers don’t want to spend so much time and money on a project like duct cleaning. They tell us all the time that they just want the “crud” out of the ducts. What (if anything) remains in the duct work certainly won’t be blowing around their house anymore. - Thanks for your interest and consideration, good luck on your decision.

"...Is This a Bait-n-Switch"

Dave Trosdahl says:

P.S. To answer your question, this is not a bait-n-switch. Remember, with a bait-and-switch, the advertised product/service doesn’t exist (like a car dealer advertising a stripped down car, which isn’t available). We provide the $99 service all day long.
March 13th, 2008 at 11:48 pm

So, as you can see, the air duct cleaning prices quoted on our website really is correct. We most definitely stand behind our duct cleaning prices.

Suffer From Allergies? - Might Want to Think About Air Duct Cleaning

If you suffer from allergies, asthma, or even if you find you have to dust too often, then air duct cleaning is for you. Not only will you breathe cleaner air, you can increase the amount of air flow reducing your electric bills.

The American College of Allergy concluded that 50 percent of all illnesses are either caused by, or aggravated by, polluted indoor air. Even in new homes we find just as much dust and residue as older homes, due to construction residue.
Just cleaning the vents will not eliminate the dust and pollutants in your home.

The Twin Cities Air Duct Cleaning Process:

In order to clean completely we must clean the returns (where the air flows into the system), and the blower units as well. Otherwise your vents will become dirty again as soon as you run air through them.

It is vital you replace your air filters promptly after we clean your system and replace them as needed on a regular basis. Some houses will require more frequent air duct cleaning, as well as the changing of furnace filters as the number of pets, dirt, and traffic varies in each home.

We can also sanitize your air ducts to reduce odors and disinfect your entire duct system. The sanitizer we use is less toxic than most household chemicals.

Do it Yourself Duct Cleaning DIY

DIY Duct Cleaning - How To

Your air ducts are dirty and they need to be cleaned. Chances are something has led up to the revelation that years of dust, dirt and debris can't be a good thing. Perhaps your nose has been running and you have come to the conclusion that you have something more than a head cold going on.

Quite often, homeowners experience breathing problems, excessive dust, a newborn or they just bought a new home. Whatever the case, it's definitely time for air duct cleaning, and youwant to do ityourself to save a few bucks. Nothing wrong with that. With a little creative ingenuity, some up-front capital and little time you should be able to make an added improvement to the quality of your indoor air.

Here is a Quick DIY Guide to Duct Cleaning

First, you will need a high powered air compressor. To blow the bulk of the crud out of your air ducts you will need to have the capacity to maintain 200psi for 30 minute intervals. You will need an attachment (we have ours specially made) for the end of the hose that will blow the dust backwards. Some people use copper tubing to create a "j-hook".

Next, you will need to have something heavy to cover the air vents. This should be something that keeps the pressurized air and the dust inside the duct work. This is important because otherwise the dust will blow around the house. Not a good plan.

The next step is to attach a high powered vacuum to the furnace. No, a shop vac won't work. Plan on spending a few hundred dollars to get one that can really create negative pressure. Buying a truck mounted vac like we use to clean air ducts wouldn't be practical...they cost thousands of dollars. A good place to look is Duct Cleaner Supply.

Lastly, since a RotoBrush is too expensive for most homeowners, you will want to fashion a rotating brush to the end of a drill. Buy a 25' cable which has a stationary outer shield, to attach to the end of a cordless drill. You will also need to put a long bristled brush on the end of the cable.

You Now Have the Basic Tools for DIY Air Duct Cleaning

In the next post, I will explain the process using the homemade duct cleaning equipment I just described. Keep in mind, the duct cleaning tools I have described are an inexpensive means of cleaning your own ductwork on a budget. The truck mounted duct cleaning equipment used by our company and most other duct cleaners runs into the thousands of dollars.

Check back soon for "part two" of "Do It Yourself Duct Cleaning". in the mean time, you might want to read a previous post entitled "Twin Cities Air Duct Cleaning - Minneapolis, St. Paul". This post describes the Push-Pull duct cleaning method and the RotoBrush duct cleaning method.

Home Remodeling Project Complete - Time for Duct Cleaning

The painters are gone, the floors and windows have been cleaned, last thing on the on the list; call the duct cleaning company.

Many of our customers are homeowners that have just completed a home remodeling project. They realize that the dust that at one point or another covered virtually everything, also was sucked into their duct work. The dust gets everywhere, and with the cold air return acting like a big vacuum cleaner, much of that dust, dirt and construction debris finds it's way into the air ducts.

What's in My Air Ducts?

What kind of dust, dirt and debris you ask? Well, we find sawdust, sheetrock dust, plastic, tape, nails, soda cans, you name it. We even found a boot! How it got there we can only imagine. Perhaps the latest "new hire" on the crew learned to not leave his boots laying around!

On more than one occasion we have found air ducts completely plugged with insulation, fast food bags and other construction debris. No matter what's in the ductwork, it was never designed for anything to be in them, period! For air to move through the house effectively, your air ducts need to be clean and free of anything that might restrict airflow.

Schedule Duct Cleaning

So, whether your main concern is heating and cooling efficiency or you just don't want that dust blowing around your house anymore, consider air duct cleaning as the final step in your home improvement project. If you live in the Twin Cities call 651-653-4704 or feel free to schedule online.

Twin Cities Duct Cleaning Prices

Air Duct Cleaning Costs Around the Minneapolis Metro Area

It is no secret that duct cleaning prices vary widely across the US and especially the Twin Cities. But who do you believe? Is it best to pay more and have your air ducts cleaned less frequently or is it better to spend less money and hire a duct cleaner on a regular basis? To answer this you might ask yourself; 'If I spend $450 - $1,000 to have a NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) certified duct cleaning company come out to thoroughly clean my air ducts, how long until I can afford to have them cleaned again?'.

It is important to understand that no matter what, your air ducts will get dirty again regardless of who cleans them and how clean they get.

So, if Company A charges $1,000 and your air ducts are perfectly cleaned, even though they will start getting dirty again as soon as the furnace or air conditioner kicks in again. Is that the best value for your money?

On the other hand if Company B (Twin Cities Air Duct Cleaning) can perform a $189 air duct cleaning service and clean your air ducts 90% as effective as company A, wouldn't that equate to about a 3 month difference? I know, it sounds like algebra 101 all over again doesn't it? Seriously though, being realistic, how clean can Company A clean the duct work in your home? And at what point will they have the same level of contaminants as when Company B finishes?

Let's use this duct cleaning example:

You spend $1,000 to clean your air ducts in say March. And your neighbors wait to clean their air ducts until let's say September and they spend $189. If your $1,000 cleaning is now as dirty as your neighbors who just had their ducts cleaned, you just spent $811 for 6 months of really clean ductwork! Do you see any logic in this??? Especially when the EPA has no real recommendations on air duct cleaning.

If you have been able to follow my line of thinking, and would like to get on the schedule for a good old fashioned Twin Cities Air Duct Cleaning, then give us a call: 651-653-4704. If you prefer you may also schedule air duct cleaning online.

Twin Cities Air Duct Cleaning - Minneapolis, St. Paul

Air Duct Cleaning - "Push-Pull" Method

Regular $199.95 Special $99

• Step 1 - Our technicians first attach a high powered vacuum to the main trunk line leading to your furnace.
• Step 2. - Next, they go to each branch line and use a tool called an air-wand. The air-wand uses highly compressed air to push all the debris down to the main trunk-lines where the vacuum hose is creating negative-pressure to draw all debris to our van mounted equipment.
• Step 3. - Once the technicians have completed the initial air sweep, they will go to the bottom of the furnace with a 25-ft rotary air-wand, also known as an air-snake, with a reverse nozzle. This creates a tornado effect in the ductwork removing all residue from the sides of the air ducts. This will pull any remaining dust and debris back to the vacuum. The vacuum is "pulling" while the air-wand is "pushing" and it does a very effective job on light dust, dirt and debris.

If it has been several years since your air ducts were cleaned, you might consider using the Rotary Brush Method (see below), and reserving the "Push-Pull" method for the next time, when your ductwork is not so dirty. Either way you choose, we clean all return lines and supply lines within your household.

Duct Cleaning - "Rotary Brush" Method

Price $249.95 Special $189

Our technicians use the same first two steps mentioned above, but once they have completed the initial air sweep, an item called a Rotary-Brush with a reverse nozzle will be used. It will be inserted into the trunk line where the brush will rotate inside the air ducts. This rotating brush "scrubs" the walls clean, removing anything that is stuck on, or otherwise attached to the walls of the air ducts.

Once the ductwork has been scrubbed clean, they continue on to step 3 using compressed air to pull the dust and debris that was removed from the side walls of the trunk lines and any other debris which might have been knocked loose with the rotary brush, back out to the vacuum using the step 4 mentioned above. We clean all return lines and supply lines within your household. Watch this short air duct cleaning video that explains the Rotary Brush Duct cleaning process.
