"This company is so professional and courteous. I contacted 5 different companies for quotes and these guys and one other contractor were the only two who did not trash talk every other company. Trash talking another company really does nothing for a business. Jed worked very hard at getting us a low price and was extremely prompt in their service. No they do not have a "showy" showcase at their place of business like some do but then they pass that savings onto the customer. The two receptionists were extremely professional and polite. In my opinion I would recommend these people to anyone. We ended up replacing both the air conditioner and furnace as well as had a humidifier installed, as well as two new air return ducts cut in. Thank you for the professional service."

Air Duct Cleaning questions, answered by experts

No, not all houses have ducts. It would be safe to say, however, that most modern houses do. The reason is that older houses had boilers in the basement that heated from the bottom up and often vents weren’t built into the house. Another reason is that older homes don’t have air conditioning (because it didn’t exist) and use radiators for heating. Since radiators don’t require ductwork, it wasn’t built.

The EPA recommends duct cleaning only as needed—meaning routine cleaning is unnecessary. But if you suspect mold or other contaminants in your ductwork, consult a local professional to determine the best next steps.

There are a few ways to determine if a vent is open or closed. You can inspect the vent and examine the position of the fins. If there are spaces between them, the vent is open. If the fins are flat and touching, the vent is closed. You can also stand under the vent when the system is running to see if you feel air flowing through it.

The most common duct sizes used in residential homes are round ducts 6 to 12 inches in diameter. This size is small enough to be easily installed into walls and ceilings, yet is wide enough to allow for adequate airflow through the home. Improper duct sizing can cause HVAC issues, increased energy bills, and a drop in HVAC efficiency, which translates into a less comfortable home. 

Ductwork will occasionally make noise as the metal experiences rapid temperature or air pressure changes. This is especially common when the furnace initially kicks on and pushes warm air into cold air ducts. However, this noise should not occur if the home is at a normal temperature most of the time. If you are hearing noises regularly, it may be a sign of a more serious problem.
