  • Many air duct cleaning companies will offer low rates and then come in and find problems that don't exist.

    HVAC tech here. Duct cleaning is a complete scam. Look inside your ducts. They're all spotless. Air travels through a filter and an evap coil before the ducts. The cleaners bring a big vacuum that pushes are theough the ducts to clean them? Isn't that what your blower does? Think about it.

    I get paid 60 per furnace and we charge 250. So there's no way anyone charges 50.

    lol "Angies advises staying away from anyone saying you have to take immediate action". That is EXACTLY how they themselves act when they call service providers to signup, one call closes no call backs or time to think.... makes you think

    The contractors I've hired from Angie's list have all been horrible. Leave a bad review and it gets pulled. I will never use Angie again.

    If you do not sign a contract for the amount, you owe them NOTHING. They can upsell you all they want, if it is not what was agreed upon, they can pound sand. And you cannot do it all in an hour.

    A duct cleaner is not a licensed mold assessor or industrial hygienists they aren't even allowed to say anything is mold unless tested by a professional.

      Yea when I opened my hvac company 2 years ago I set up with home advisor to get leads they sent me info on 15 leads out of 15 I only actually got in touch with 5 and 2 of the 5 were not even looking for a company but they charged me 30 bucks a piece anyway! My son was in hvac school at the time and working for me and he was showing his teacher some of our reviews from home advisor and they sent me his information as a lead and wanted to charge me 30 bucks for the lead!

      @@atrain132 We went to Angie's List for duct cleaning 3 days ago. We spent over an hour moving furniture and other items in preparation for the 11 AM appointment today We got multiple emails and texts telling us to get ready.. At 10:45 we got an email telling us that they couldn't find a contractor to perform the work.They lied .Straight out lied.

    Quality companies will provide real time video before and after. Good duct cleaning runs about 200-350. No such thing as a coupon deal.

    I need to use negative air pressure cleaning because I have fiberglass dust in my vents from a foam bed that leaked it and the dryer made it almost microscopic. It took months to clean my house and get my pets health better
