by:
Pat Johnson
As a qualified duct clean up contractor I have discovered that most homeowners feel that they are really ignorant once
it move to the principals and practices of proper air duct clean up hygiene.
Let me begin by language that the EPA as well as the National air duct cleaners association have explicit that human action duct clean up should take no less than between 4 and 8 hours to complete, thing
short of that and you are probably not deed a thorough job.
Consumers are cautioned against duct clean up companies that claim to be able to clear your entire air duct system in a really short period of time and for an delusive low price, in this industry that kind of service is all unacceptable and is best-known as the blo-n-go style of duct cleaning.
Remember...anything short of between 4 and 8 hours and you are probably not deed what you're paying for.
Many homeowners are as well under the impression that the main ducts and primary vents are the only components that require cleaning, However this is not the case, a thorough duct clean up must include any internal surface in which the air moves across, this not only includes the main ducts and vents but must as well include the conveyance compartment of the furnace/AC, heat exchanger, AC coils, drain pan, blower, filter housing and any air clean up instrumentation
that power be installed.
The only acceptable know-how
of proper air duct clean up is to put the entire system under negative air (vacuum) by means of a powerful vacuum system that produces no less than 2000 blocky feet per minute of air flow (cfm), each individual vent shaft should be clean
mistreatment a combination of high pressure air snakes, rotating brushes and whips which must be driven by a mechanical device
that wish deliver no less than 175 psi @ 12-16 cfm.
In conclusion, once
choosing a qualified air duct clean up institution be sure to ask if they their technicians and instrumentation
meet the above criteria and always get a few references, it is as well advisable
that you contact your local better business bureau or chamber of commerce.
