"Excellent service! Avraham and Angel were professional, thorough, and courteous. They cleaned our dryer vent, air ducts, and heater, and also installed a UV light. They took before-and-after photos so we could clearly see the results, which was greatly appreciated. They did an excellent job and left everything clean when they finished. Highly recommend!"
"Best Air Quality and Restoration did a spectacular job! I can't say enough about the employees. They did an outstanding job! They were punctual,polite and followed social distancing protocols.They assessed the home and cleaned the air ducts quickly and efficiently. I am very pleased with their service and highly recommended this company. I purchased a new home and had them come clean the ducts to improve the homes environment. They showed me before and after pictures and I noticed a difference right away"
"The technician that cleaned my ductwork had a lot of work to do. Milan had asked me as he was leaving how long had it been since I had the ducts cleaned. I couldn’t recall, then realized it was a long time ago. 30 years! As a new homeowner I had zero experience so I was relying on my husband. He died 5 years after we bought this house and being clueless about the care & upkeep on it. I neglected pretty much everything. Lowes the Company offered the same exact cleaning as 2 other companies that gave me estimates over $1,000. Lowes has 3 flat rates to choose from, I chose the $398 special and that’s exactly what I paid. Great Company with Great prices!"
"Damion was very professional, friendly and thorough. He took the time to explain everything to me and walked me through the entire dryer vent cleaning process before getting started. Once the job was completed, he showed me the results and made sure I was satisfied with the work. I highly recommend Damion and truly appreciate his excellent service. Thank you Damion."
"When scheduling an appointment, they recommended cleaning the vents after I had carpet and wood floors installed. I asked if a video of the vent/duct in one bedroom could be done to determine if something was blocking the air flow, which was a service the company could provide. I also I was provided a quote by phone for the number of vents in my home. The quote was accurate when the servicemen arrived. They were polite, professional and knowledgeable. The lead person explained everything that was being done prior to the work being performed on the unit. Pictures were taken of the furnance with recommendations for additional service, no pressure to have it done at the time of service."
"Marvin and his team did an excellent job! He arrived within the timeframe I was given and quickly cleaned my dryer vent. He also took the time to go over recommendations that I can use in the future. Once the service was completed, he showed me what had been done and explained how everything was working. I truly appreciated the professionalism, efficiency, and great customer service. I definitely plan to be a repeat customer and will have this service done every two years. I highly recommend Marvin and his team from KCR Indoor Air Quality."
They were wonderful in every way. Helpful in decisions, prompt, courteous, clean and neat in their appearance and in their work.
I felt quite comfortable having in my home. And the job was completed within the time frame they stated. I will definitely use them in the future if I need them. Highly recommend them in every way.
You do need dampers in your HVAC system, but they do help to regulate airflow and give you better control of the temperature in each room of your home. Most HVAC systems will have dampers installed, but this isn't always the case. If you don’t have designated zones in your home, you’ll likely still have valve control dampers on your supply vents for manual control.
Smoke can be tricky to remove from your home, especially after a fire. The best way to eliminate the smell is to open the windows to increase ventilation and air circulation in your house. Then, use white vinegar to wipe down walls, furniture, and floors. Try steam-cleaning carpet and other upholstered items to remove the smell of smoke.
If you have a fresh air intake as part of your HVAC system, the interior vents should be near your furnace or other gas appliances inside your home. From the outside of your property, your HVAC fresh air intake location is usually near the ground (although it may also be higher up, like on the roof or attic).
Clean return air vents by using a microfiber cloth soaked in warm, soapy water (or a mild cleaning solution, like vinegar and water). Wipe the interior of the vents, paying close attention to the corners and crevices where dust likes to hide. Use a vacuum brush attachment or handheld model instead of a cloth if desired. Additionally, once or twice a year, remove your air vents and soak them in warm soapy water for 30 minutes before cleaning, drying, and putting them back on.
During your HVAC preseason maintenance call, your contractor will inspect the system for any problems and make small adjustments for better efficiency. Tasks include, though are not limited to:
Changing filters
Checking the thermostat
Clearing away dust and debris
Checking for mold
Inspecting electrical elements
Inspecting condensate lines and drain
Cleaning evaporator coils
Ensuring ignition function
While you can do some of these services yourself, hiring a professional to keep HVAC equipment running can be helpful. These experts know what to look for and may be able to spot potential issues before they become problems. Many HVAC companies offer annual maintenance plans.
