Thanks for watching! Have you noticed a difference in the amount of dusting you need to do after a duct cleaning?
How much is this cleaning
I just had my system done and WOW what a difference! I also got the aeroseal done and my house has never smelled this clean! Definitely worth the money I am a very happy customer.
Great job guys!!
I just purchased and did my first job with my Abatement Technology vacuum!!!
My customer was impressed with the system!!!!!
For the folks saying that duct cleaning is a scam, think twice. Imagine a previous home owner, never changing their filter for the HVAC system and not keeping up with vacuuming and cleaning their home on a weekly basis. All that caked up dust being trapped in the filter, return vents and system will build up over time. You're breathing in the air throughout your home and having a peace of mind knowing that your ducts are clean, and air is flowing properly with your 'home-smell'. Call a few HVAC companies, get some quotes and find out the type of work they are doing first. You don't want someone coming in with the $40 groupon special cleaning your ducts.
Whats wrong with the groupon
People go with the prices that’s to good to be true, $49.99 whole house special, then they get taken for a ride and say air duct cleaning is a scam. They get angry at the industry because they fell victim to the bait and switch routine and blame the whole industry and call it a scam. There’s companies that take pride in what they do to give customer satisfaction. Air duct cleaning at minimum takes 3hrs for an average size home, if a company is in and out in an hour, you might want to check behind them.imagine buying a new car and they tell you it’s $49.99 fully equipped.🤣
@@frankbarajas1462 $49.99 whole house special?🤣🤣🤣
Worth every penny
Is there a portable device like this (that homeowners can use on their own for their own ductwork or just cleaning up dust (aside from household vacuums, wiping and mopping floors, baseboards and or furniture, etc with so much effort and time to clear off dust off things in a house))?
What about smoke and nicotine residue? If it has to be scrubbed off walls to get rid of it, how is it cleaned from ducts? The filter gets alot of it, but there is still residue.
That’s where encapsulation comes in.
thanks for information very informative.
Lol him making the first hole. I know the pain those shards are so hot. I wear gloves and toque to stop them. Nothing worse then getting them going down your shirt and into your armpit.
Do you have a sanitizer mist? Some local company said they have one
here's my question: one room in our house is constantly getting heavy whitish dust on its floor, while the other rooms DON'T have that same dust. Is there an explanation for that? Thanks!
Do you have a humidifier in that room? I know that our humidifier will leave a fine white dust all over everything in the room.
Nice video, how do you do one that is just in the attic only?
Duct cleaning is for the whole house not one room.
How much would a good QUALITY company charge for a 3br townhouse? Thx,....have horrible dust issue.
Usually goes by sq foot... number of returns and supply.
Roughly off the hip is expect somewhere between 600 to 900.
Also your area might be different.
Make sure they do a good job! Follow them and ask questions.
I run solo and can clean a three bedroom home in four hours. All my customers are happy.
700-1000
depends on how many systems you have some charge a set price others charge per system.
This episode features the men and women of air duct cleaning, names have been changed to protect the innocent. All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
An all cleaning. One duct cleaning company told me they only take 1 hr
What do companies charge per square foot?
can i use this video?
First I thought they were pilots😁
Ducted systems are usually only dusty when they're badly designed. it's easier to have good filters and change them often than to have 3 or 4 dudes turn up with a truck to clean ur whole duct run with the crazy snake air hose doodad. Loved their professionalism though, there are cowboys in HVAC but at least these dudes take their job seriously.
That’s the thing, most systems are poorly designed. First step would be cleaning then figuring out where the system is leaking
Yep! when I do an oil change on my car , I usually just change the oil filter because I use the best oil on the market. It’s been 15 years since I changed my motor oil.👌🏻🤦🏼♂️
Whats the avg time for a 2 story 1650 sq ft?................And avg cost?
Depends on where you live, give or take 900-1200
A local company quoted about the same range, I can vouch for those prices. They seem fair.
Realistic price
What about cigarette smoke
you will need new duct especially if your trunk line is made of duct board. the smell will never come out i don't care what anyone says.
@@EP1CNELSON I sprayed a smoke eater in the intake while the fan was running. Did this a few times also shut fan off right away a few times so it would sit in the ducts.. been a few weeks no smell. Had the air on nothing. Heat seems good to. Tearing out the rug ,painting and replacing all doors outlets. Even some lights seem to have done the trick. If it comes back I will have to heavy duty seal primer and repaint. The painter said the walls were not that bad. But I really should of insisted. Even painted the window frames . We knew we wanted to revenate everything anyway. So we were gonna spend the money anyway.. just hope not using a oder sealing primer does not come back to Haunt me.
Wholly commercials batman for such a short video...
No, it really doesn't work. Had my professionally "cleaned" by a company and the problem/dust was only reduced by maybe 25%. They used a powerful HEPA filter. Disappointing. What does one do after that?
You should try to ask for a company that uses rotatory equipment and vacuum. Some companies spray some liquid to disinfect your ducts.
I think they should try to disinfect your ducts after cleaning. There’s still dust and bacterias after cleaning.
@@elguana0007 How would they get that in there and drain it out again? Unfortunately they don't do that, but you're right, there should be something like that done.
@@WindWipper idk man, i am from Europe and nobody has such an airduct system here, but the cleaning of it looks flawd AF, you can't just clean it by running a powerful vaccum, I've tried cleaning computer parts and that dust that is stuck there for years ain't comming off with some air, you need some kind of brushes and solvent i think, but how would you do that? and the prices those companies charge for blowing air through your ducts it's ridiculous
@@dany_2945 Yea, it really is ridiculous. Big scam if you ask me.
@@WindWipper I live in Virginia and some HVAC contractors use a rotatory brush to take all the sticky dirt from the inside of each duct. They start cleaning the top level of your house because they say that it is impossible for the vacuum to suck the dirt, no matter how powerful it is. They said that the ducts are connected and the only way that you could possibly get most of the dirt is starting by the top. That way the rotatory brush will push some dirt and will go to the box that is connected to the unit.
After cleaning all the tops levels they cleaned the boxes. I was very satisfied with that.
They took about 4 hours cleaning the ducts.
The contractor said that most companies use big vacuums making
People think that it will suck everything, but they don’t use any brushes. There are companies that will do a job that might satisfy you, but you should ask the people that do that job how they clean the ducts before you pay them to do it.
I'd feel alot more comfortable if they had 4 masks on
