Our Air Duct Cleaning Process

  • 1: Walk-Thru

    We do this with every customer to address any areas of concern, take measurements, determine the best cleaning process for the carpet and set clear expectations of results prior to cleaning. (A black light will also be used to identify pet areas to be treated.)

  • 2: Prep & Protection

    We use floor/corner protection & our Orange Seal-A-Door covering as needed.

  • 3: Vacuum

    We will vacuum using our HEPA vacuum so dust and any harmful particulates do not become airborne. This is also done to lift the pile of the carpet to prepare it for pre-spray and cleaning.

  • 4: Pre-Spray

    We use a pre-spray to break down any soiling or sticky substances left behind by spills or foot traffic that were not removed with vacuuming.

  • 5: Scrubbing

    For heavily soiled areas or heavy traffic areas we may decide to scrub in the pre-spray (with a Counter Rotating Brush Machine or "CRB").

  • 6: Cleaning

    We clean using a truck mounted Hot Water Extraction System (commonly referred to as "steam cleaning") and specialty cleaning tools along with cleaning agents designed specifically for your carpet type.

  • 7: Carpet Protector

    This is applied/re-applied after the carpet has been cleaned.

  • 8: Grooming

    We will then rake through the carpet to lift the pile and help the carpet to dry evenly.

Air Duct Cleaning FAQs

Got questions? We've got answers! Explore our FAQs to find quick solutions to common questions about our services, policies, and more.

  • How often should I have my air ducts cleaned?

    Air duct cleaning frequency depends on various factors such as the size of your home, the number of occupants, and whether there are pets present. Typically, it's recommended to have your air ducts cleaned every 3 to 5 years. However, if you notice excessive dust buildup, musty odors, or allergies worsening, it might be time for a cleaning sooner.


  • What are the benefits of air duct cleaning?

    Air duct cleaning improves indoor air quality by removing dust, allergens, and other pollutants trapped in the ductwork. This can lead to better respiratory health, reduced allergy symptoms, and a cleaner living environment. Additionally, clean air ducts can enhance HVAC system efficiency, potentially lowering energy bills.

  • Do I need cleaning if I change my filters regularly?

    While changing air filters regularly is essential for maintaining HVAC system efficiency, it doesn't completely eliminate the need for air duct cleaning. Filters can capture larger particles, but smaller particles and contaminants can still accumulate in the ductwork over time. Professional air duct cleaning ensures thorough removal of these accumulated pollutants, promoting cleaner air circulation throughout your home.

  • What's the air duct cleaning process?

    During air duct cleaning, our trained technicians use specialized equipment to dislodge and remove accumulated debris and contaminants from the ductwork. This typically involves a combination of brushing, vacuuming, and/or compressed air to thoroughly clean the ducts. The duration of the process varies depending on factors such as the size of the home and the level of contamination but typically ranges from 2 to 4 hours for a standard residential property.
