Experienced Duct Cleaning Ensures Pure Air, Steady Airflow

A detailed cleaning is best when it involves every aspect of your ventilation to provide maximum benefits. This includes the ventilation itself, the vent openings and grilles, and even your HVAC system’s air handler. Most of the air indoors passes through the ductwork sooner or later, which means airborne debris and contaminants can spread everywhere if ignored. In addition, it isn’t always easy to access certain air ducts, so professional-grade cleaning routinely uses specialty tools and equipment capable of removing dirt, debris and other contaminants from the deepest segments of your ventilation. Let’s consider what you can expect from duct cleaning in Phoenix.

• Conduct a comprehensive inspection: Before we get to work, it’s important to have a greater understanding of how much debris is lurking in your ventilation system. The process starts with a full inspection so we have an opportunity to identify any trouble spots, leaks or other specific issues. We’ll take a look inside all the air ducts as well as the return and supply vents. If something is too difficult to reach manually, cameras may be used to wrap up the inspection.
• Reduce the ductwork’s air pressure: While we rely on powerful vacuum equipment to extract dust and pollutants lodged in the ductwork, it helps to make the environment of the ductwork more favorable to the cleaning process. We seal off the vents and attach the vacuum to the air handler, establishing negative air pressure and making it easier to clean out as much debris as we can.
• Scrub vents and registers to unlodge dirt and debris: Higher levels of humidity and microbes will sometimes make buildup more difficult to clear out. Each vent opening is unsealed and agitated with tools like brushes and compressed air. This helps dislodge old debris, making it easier for the vacuum.
• Clean any other ventilation accessories: Certain elements of your HVAC system aren’t officially a part of the ventilation, but can still impact airflow and the overall indoor air quality. We’ll clean or replace the air filter and flush the outdoor unit’s condensate drain lines.
