About this service
Professional duct cleaning involves a deep interior sweep of your heating and cooling system’s ductwork. Technicians use agitation tools to loosen debris from the walls of the ducts, which is then pulled out through a powerful collection system. You should consider this service if you have moved into a new home with unknown maintenance history, if you have pets that shed heavily, or if you simply notice that your air registers are visibly clogged with lint, hair, or construction debris.
During the heat of summer, your AC system works hard to keep your home cool. Clean ducts allow your unit to move air more easily, which can reduce strain on the equipment. If you notice dust buildup or musty smells when the air turns on, a summer cleaning helps keep your indoor air fresh and breathable.
