A clean dryer duct is essential in making sure your HVAC system is running efficiently and circulating safe, clean air indoors. Because cleaning and ductwork requires a lot of skill and the right gear, you should always hire a pro to clean things up. Here’s a quick breakdown of what you can expect to happen throughout the entire process.
The service starts out by checking if your vent has any signs of problems. Our crew will keep an eye out for things, such as rust spots, dents, busted seams, dust buildup and other possible symptoms of a vent issue. This will be done with the right tools to ensure the vent doesn’t get damaged during inspection.
Our vent cleaners will use special tools to effectively get rid of debris trapped in your dry vent. A special vacuum sucks up the loose dirt while a snake-like brush is used to scrub out more persistent debris. Without these tools, cleaning your vents will be next to impossible without having to open up the vent at multiple points.
Diagnostic testing involves using measurement tools to see if the vent is properly cleaned. Factors that are measured include air pressure and volume, although they will also keep an ear out for any strange noises that occur when air is passing through the freshly-cleaned vents.
Duct cleaning technicians will also run your HVAC through a short cycle. Doing this will help them check if your ducts are completely free of clogging and other issues. If they spot any signs of trouble, they will start from the beginning and look for the source of the problem. This will continue until they are sure that your ducts are free of problems or if more serious repair work has to be done.
