"Victor arrived promptly & did an outstanding job cleaning my ducts & dryer vent. He was professional , courteous & had excellent customer service skills. The next time I need the service I will definitely call DMV air duct & dryer vent clearing."
"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!"
"Damien did an outstanding job cleaning the air ducts, furnace, and dryer vent in our home. He was prompt, professional, and fairly priced. I appreciated him explaining the process as well. We will definitely use Macks Home Services again!"
"C&C's servicemen were courteous on the phone and in person, helpful in explaining everything they would be doing, and prompt both by arriving on time and in getting the job done in the time frame promised. They left my home as clean as they found it, too. The price, which was calculated according to the number of duct vents counted when they first arrived, ended up below the quote I received ahead of time, which was a nice bonus. Also, I had requested an email quote up front from several services to help me decide on which service to hire, and C&C was the only ones to fulfill that request, again promptly. The quote was right at the average price for homes in this area, as calculated by HomeAdvisor, so the final ticket was less than the average. I am completely satisfied and happy with the job they did and would recommend them"
"These guys were fantastic! Rony and Luz were a great team and were very thorough in cleaning my ducts. They showed me before and after pictures of my ducts and wow what a difference! They were able to walk me through the whole process and show me exactly what they were doing, and answered any questions I had. I can tell that there is better air quality in my house and the air is blowing stronger out of the vents. I have already recommended Fair Duct and the Rony/ Luz team to friends and family."
"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."

If possible, avoid placing furniture in front of a return air vent. A blocked air vent can cause your HVAC system to use more energy, which in turn can lower the life span of your unit and raise your energy bill. Furniture can also trap hot or cold air, damaging your furniture or appliances.
Professional duct installers suggest leaving between six and 12 inches of space in front of an air return vent. If you must place furniture in front of a return air vent, try to aim for putting furniture over a floor vent instead of in front of a wall vent, and avoid draping curtains over any vent system.
Return air ducts should generally not be installed in rooms with high humidity, contaminants, or strong odors. This includes bathrooms, kitchens, garages, closets, attics, and furnace or boiler rooms. Placing vents in these areas can draw moisture, fumes, odors, and potentially hazardous gases like carbon monoxide into your HVAC system, which can damage ductwork, promote mold growth, and compromise your home's indoor air quality and safety. According to the International Code Council, there are some exceptions. For example, a return duct may be placed in a kitchen if it is at least 10 feet away from cooking appliances and serves only that room. Similarly, a garage can have a return duct if it is part of a dedicated forced-air system that only serves the garage. For optimal performance, prioritize installing return air vents in central locations and rooms with consistent temperature needs, such as bedrooms and living spaces. If you are unsure, consult a professional duct installer for guidance.
No, a vent is where an HVAC duct enters into a room to deliver conditioned air, and a damper is a valve that can open and close to restrict airflow to the vents throughout your home. Some HVAC vents have manual dampers on them that let you control the airflow to specific areas of your HVAC system, but dampers can also appear on the hidden ductwork or near your air handler for more precise temperature control and energy efficiency in your ductwork.
Different air vents may go by other terms, including registers, vent covers, grilles, return vents, or supply vents. Registers are the moving slats that can open or close the vent, while grilles or grills are the same as vent covers, the piece of plastic or metal over the vent opening. Supply vents move the warm or cool air from the air ducts into a room, while return vents pull air from a room back to the HVAC system for conditioning.
The cost of annual maintenance depends on the type of HVAC system you have. AC service typically costs an average of $200 but ranges from $100 to $550. If your system needs repairs, the price will vary significantly depending on what needs fixing. However, addressing the issues as they arise can prevent further damage to your unit and keep it operating efficiently for much longer.
