Air ducts don't always come to mind, as they are part of the skeleton of the house hidden in the walls, so we're here to help support with handling these tougher to reach places.

Our technicians are equipped with top of the line tools specialized in this role, including cameras that can help with inspecting the inside of your vents to assess for cracks, damage, and possible mold contaminations lurking in the debris. We also use high power HEPA Filtered High Pressure vacuums and rotary brushes to gently dislodge all of the dust in the air ducts and collect it with efficiency. 

Assessing the return intake vents and supply vents in your home is a job better left to the professionals, as trying to make this a DIY (Do it yourself) job at home can lead to complications and lost equipment in the vents. The last thing you need is for a major blockage to occur that may damage your vents, leading to a far more costly disaster! We can however share some tips to be on the lookout for in order to know whether its time for a cleaning in general!

1. The vent covers are visibly dusty.
Find your supply and return vents, which should be in almost every room of your house. If you notice the vent covers are dirty, this is only the tip of the iceberg! As you can imagine, hair, bugs, dust, among other things will always find their way into the vents. Simply wiping over the cover isn't going to fix the internal issue however!

2. The airflow is weak in certain rooms, or takes a long time to regulate temperature.
There can be a blockage or tear in the vents preventing the air from reaching its destination efficiently. Think of your vents as the veins and lungs of your home. A camera inspection can, with minimal intrusion, help assess what can  be causing the inefficiency that can be costing you in your energy bills as well!

3. There is a weird odor coming from the vents.
It is possible that some moisture may have gotten into the vents somehow, maybe from a leak or tear, and this can be a really troubling sign. If there is mold in the vents, it is notorious for generating a musty scent and spreading these allergens all throughout your home to spread! First and foremost we don't recommend introducing any kind of moisture in the form of household cleaning agents into the vents, because that is what can cause mold to begin with. If there is already a contamination to that degree and a sanitization is necessary, that is where we can use our specialized organic cleaning solution to clear the mold at the source! It must then be dried adequately to ensure that no new mold can grow again.
