Air Duct Cleaning power vacuum cuts to the heart of your homes heating and cooling system. Our skilled technicians attach the big vacuum hose directly to your air ducts at the core of your heating and cooling system. The other companies use smaller equipment that cannot and does not clean as well.

Duct Cleaning cleans the whole system. Vacuum by itself is not enough to do the job. High pressure agitation devices are inserted into each duct to loosen and lift debris into the vacuum stream for removal. Our technicians also have specialized brushes to clean any size or shape duct.
The cleaning tools travel the full length of every duct to blast loose debris. Some companies only clean what you can see. Others actually seal the dirt so it stays forever.
The main duct work lines are also cleaned, even if they are hidden in the walls or the ceiling.
This is where a lot of dirt hides and most companies don't have the tools to clean them.

What to Expect From Our Trained Air Duct Cleaning Technicians:

  • Open access ports or doors to allow the entire system to be cleaned and inspected.

  • Inspect the system before cleaning to be sure that there are no asbestos-containing materials

    • (Asbestos-containing materials require Asbestos Removal and specialized procedures and should not be disturbed.)

  • Use vacuum equipment that exhausts particles outside of the home or use only high-efficiency particle air (HEPA) vacuuming equipment if the vacuum exhausts inside the home.

  • Protect carpet and household furnishings during cleaning.

  • Use well-controlled brushing of duct surfaces in conjunction with contact vacuum cleaning to dislodge dust and other particles.

  • Use only soft-bristled brushes for fiberglass duct board and sheet metal ducts internally lined with fiberglass.
    • (Although flex duct can also be cleaned using soft-bristled brushes, it can be more economical to simply replace accessible flex duct.)

  • Take care to protect the duct work, including sealing and re-insulating any access holes the service provider may have made or used so they are airtight.
How to Prevent Duct Contamination

Whether or not you decide to have the air ducts in your home cleaned, committing to a good preventive maintenance program is essential to minimize duct contamination.
  • Use the highest efficiency air filter recommended by the manufacturer of your heating and cooling system.

  • Change filters regularly.

  • If your filters become clogged, change them more frequently.

  • Be sure you do not have any missing filters and that air cannot bypass filters through gaps around the filter holder.

  • When having your heating and cooling system maintained or checked for other reasons, be sure to ask the service provider to clean cooling coils and drain pans.

  • During construction or renovation work that produces dust in your home, seal off supply and return registers and do not operate the heating and cooling system until after cleaning up the dust.

  • Remove dust and vacuum your home regularly. (Use a high efficiency vacuum (HEPA) cleaner or the highest efficiency filter bags your vacuum cleaner can take. Vacuuming can increase the amount of dust in the air during and after vacuuming as well as in your ducts).


  • If your heating system includes in-duct humidification equipment, be sure to operate and maintain the humidifier strictly as recommended by the manufacturer.

    •  

    • Air Sweep Duct Cleaning – Our technicians go to each branch line and use a tool called an air-wand. The air-wand uses compressed air to push all the debris down to the main trunk lines, where there is a high vacuum hose inserted to remove all debris into our van-mounted equipment. Once the technician has completed the initial air sweep, he will use an item called an air-snake with a reverse nozzle and insert it into the trunk line, pulling any remaining dust and debris back to the vacuum. We clean all return lines and supply lines within your household. This service also includes a free furnace cleaning, as well as reduced rates on many of our other services.

    • Air Exchanger Cleaning – We clean the filter, exchanger, blower components and draft compartment, cleaning all airflow passages. (Manufacturers recommend a yearly inspection).

    • Oxine Application – Germicide fog is applied to the ducts to sanitize and destroy all bacteria, mites, fungi, mold, mildew, and allergens in the ductwork. This service is recommended for those with allergies and/or asthma, other chronic illnesses, or sensitivity to pet dander and other indoor air pollutants. Indoor Air Care Duct Cleaning uses Oxine, an EPA-approved biocide with low toxicity that does not leave an active chemical residue after treatment.

We guarantee you that all our technicians are experienced air duct cleaners. Our vacuuming equipment will exhaust all the dirt particles outside of your home. We use procedures that protect householders and pets from contamination.

Homeowners in Thousand Oaks know that routine maintenance on a property requires a lot of work. From the roof to the foundation and everywhere in between there are things that must be inspected, cleaned and repaired on a regular basis. One area not to overlook is the air conditioning and heating system. When air duct cleaning is part of a normal routine, Calabasas homeowners will realize a number of perks.

Agoura Hills Air duct cleaning involves a rather meticulous process to clean out dust, dirt and debris from a central heating and cooling system. Not only do professional services remove these things from a system, but many also take steps to disinfect the ducts to kill mold and bacteria. Other routine maintenance, such as coil cleaning, typically goes along with this type of service.

The top five reasons to make air duct cleaning in Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Calabasas, Hidden Hills, Moorpark, Camarillo, Oxnard a part of regular maintenance are:

1. Money savings. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that even less than .04 inches of dust in a cooling system's coils can lessen efficiency by as much as 21 percent. When air duct cleaning is a part of normal maintenance, coils get cleaned in the process. This can make heating and cooling a home as efficient and affordable as possible.

2. System protection. It is estimated that roughly nine out of 10 central heat and air systems fail simply because routine maintenance has not been performed. Replacing parts in a central heating system can be quite costly. A total replacement can set a homeowner back thousands.

3. Air quality. Air duct cleaning is considered very important by many because it can help improve indoor air quality. Dust and debris can become trapped in air ducts if they are not cleaned on a routine basis. When this happens, the particles can be released back into the air. Even if family members do not suffer from allergies, the particles can cause problems with breathing, among other things.

4. Allergen reduction. If allergies are a problem with family members, this kind of service can prove vital for making a home livable. Air duct cleaning can also help reduce the amount of allergens in the air. From dust mites and pollen to mold and more, regular air duct cleaning can reduce allergens that circulate through a home thanks to a heating or cooling system.

5. Improved smell inside a home. Since air ducts can harbor mold and bacteria, they can also push out rather bad smells when a system is in operation. Regular air duct cleaning can remove this issue almost entirely.

Air duct cleaning should be performed at least once every three to five years. Homes with pets, small children and issues with lots of tracked in dust and dirt might require more regular duct cleaning. Keeping up with this task can save a homeowner a lot of money and troubles down the road.
