What to Expect From an Air Duct Cleaning Service Provider

If you choose to have your ducts cleaned, the service provider should:

• Open access ports or doors to allow the entire system to be cleaned and inspected.
• Inspect the system before cleaning to be sure there are no asbestos-containing materials in the heating and cooling system.
• Use vacuum equipment that exhausts particles outside of 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.
• 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.
