Common Duct Cleaning Questions

Q. How is your company different from all the other duct cleaning companies?.....A. Unlike most of our competitors, we are not just a furnace and duct cleaning company. We are a full service heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) company. We have our Duct Cleaning Department with technicians who specialize and train for only cleaning & maintenance. Then we have our Service Department which installs, repairs and maintains heating and cooling systems.
Q. How often should my chimney be cleaned?.....A. According to the National Fire Protection Association, you should have your chimney swept at least once a year at the beginning of the wood-burning season. The best and safest way is to have a qualified chimney professional inspect your chimney for damaged flue tiles, creosote build-up and proper venting. They will be able to detect a build-up of creosote in your flue and remove it. Burning your fireplace or wood stove at the right temperatures will also help prevent creosote from accumulating. When you burn fires at lower temperatures, like when you partially close the damper opening at night in order to make the fire last longer, it allows creosote to form inside the chimney flue.
Q. Will I have to wait around all day for you to show up?.....A. No. We schedule in 2 hour increments, and call when we are on the way. In the rare occasion when we are running late, you will know well in advance.
Q. Will there be any hidden charges?.....A.There are never any hidden charges. You will know what the final price is before the duct cleaning technician arrives. In fact, you can make the check out before they arrive because there will be no hidden charges and no tax! The only exception would be if you wanted the technician to do something additional like clean your chimney or dryer vent.
Q. How often should my air ducts be cleaned?.....A. Neither the EPA nor the Center for Disease Control (CDC) offer any guidelines as to how often you should clean your air ducts. It is important to consider that neither of these two agencies recommend how often you should have your carpets, windows or furniture cleaned either. An honest and ethical duct cleaner will help you decide how often you should have your vents and coils cleaned based on; household size, pets, environment and individual health issues.
Q. How often should my furnace be cleaned and inspected?..... A. Furnace and air conditioning manufacturers and the EPA both recommend having your furnace cleaned and inspected annually. According to the EPA 'A buildup of .042 inches of dirt on a heating or cooling coil can result in a decrease in efficiency of 21%'.
