"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."
"I initially was going to have just the dryer vents cleaned but decided to also have the air ducts and vents cleaned since I have lived in the house for 10 years and never had this done. I was amazed! Dan (the technician) took pictures which I am too embarrassed to post. I had a tear in the dryer vent which I was not aware of so I had the hose replaced. I was very impressed with the quality of the work that was done and I highly recommend Dan."
"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.
The number of return air vents a house should have depends on its overall square footage. You'll need one supply vent and one return vent for every 100 to 150 square feet of living space. This means that, ideally, there should be at least one return air vent in every room. However, if the room is 100 square feet or larger, it's better to have two or three. A 2,000-square-foot home should have between 13 and 20 return air vents, in total.
You may be interested in moving a return air vent as an alternative to adding a new one. You can technically move return air vents, but you should always consult an HVAC professional before doing so. Moving your return air vents can disrupt your HVAC system's airflow and may require that a pro make adjustments to the ductwork. Moving the vents as a DIY project could damage your HVAC system and cause it to work improperly.
Vents may blow air even though the air conditioning system is off because of the pressure difference between indoor and outdoor air or drafts from leaky ducts. Check for leaks or drafts in the ductwork or around windows and doors.
Flex ducts' main problem is also their main strength: their flexibility. Because the material they are made from has little structural support, they can start to sag or compress over time. They can also be more challenging to clean than sturdier ductwork. However, it’s precisely this flexible nature that makes them a good solution for those who need a space-saving solution for their ductwork.
Yes, vent deflectors do work to redirect hot and cold air distributed from your HVAC system. If installed correctly—and magnetic deflectors make it easy to DIY— you might find that a deflector is enough to redirect the warm or cool air where you prefer it to be. At the very least, it’s an easy, inexpensive experiment before committing to the bigger project of moving the air vent to a new location.
