"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!"

"The technician, David, arrived on time, and the company gave me the heads-up beforehand that I had requested. He went right to work, looking at the clog in my dryer (it had stopped several days earlier and the fault code told me there was a blockage), and then setting up his ladder to do the cleaning from the vent outside. He explained the process so I knew what he would be doing, and didn't seem to mind that I watched him closely. First thing we saw was a sparrow fly out of the vent, so as he noted, we could expect a bird nest. He then proceeded to pull out about a foot of nest material (thankfully only one egg and no babies). After he got out all of the big stuff, he ran a brush all the way to the dryer. Running the dryer then pushed out all of the lint. He bagged up as much as he could and took it away, but a lot of it disintegrated on touch. He assured me it would disappear in the next rain, and I'm sure it will. I then asked him about installing a bird guard, and he told me how much it would be ($85) and showed it to me. I liked the design since it does not appear it will collect lint, like one I had in a previous house, and it was metal so it should last. I had him install it. He then wrote up the invoice and I happily paid ($125 for cleaning, $85 for vent). No hidden or extra charges, no attempts to upsell. He told me that they usually recommend cleaning every two years, but given our small household size, three should probably be fine. I will be in touch with SixPenny in spring 2022."

"Giovanni came to check the venting and duct cleaning for our clothes dryer. He was very courteous and professional. He explained the problem with our present setup and gave us alternatives to handle it. He did not try to charge us for unnecessary work. I highly recommend him and C & C for honest and effective advice."

"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."

Air Duct Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

If you feel your energy bills are too high or your HVAC system is working harder than necessary to maintain the correct temperature in your home, you may have an under-insulated home. If you’re unsure, consider having your system’s efficiency assessed by a local independent energy auditor.

Excessive humidity in a room often manifests through visible signs like condensation on windows or walls, a musty or damp odor lingering in the air, peeling wallpaper or paint, and the presence of mold or mildew. Experiencing discomfort due to a consistently clammy or sticky feeling can also indicate high humidity levels.

Yes, you can rent air duct cleaning equipment from many home improvement stores or equipment rental companies. Options may include high-powered vacuums, rotary brushes, and negative air machines. Renting professional-grade tools can provide a deeper clean than a standard vacuum, but proper technique is still essential for effective results.

Ozone smoke removal uses an ozone generator to eliminate stubborn odors from sources like house fires, wildfires, or cigarette smoke. Ozone (O3) is a highly reactive, unstable gas that neutralizes odors by oxidizing the organic compounds it comes into contact with. During this oxidation process, ozone "donates" its extra oxygen molecule to the smoke particles, effectively eliminating their smell, with oxygen being the primary byproduct. While ozone can be effective for removing smoke smells from building materials and belongings like wood furniture, this treatment is best left to a professional, as improper use of an ozone generator can be dangerous to your health.

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), there are no studies that definitively show duct cleaning prevents health problems or reduces dust levels in homes. However, cleaning can have noticeable benefits. It can improve indoor air quality by removing dust, allergens, and other contaminants, which may help people with allergies or respiratory issues. It can also reduce unpleasant odors, help identify mold growth, and enhance the efficiency and lifespan of your HVAC system by ensuring proper airflow. This improved airflow can reduce strain on the system, potentially lowering energy consumption and utility bills. Cleaning is particularly beneficial if ducts are filthy after a major renovation or a pest problem.
