"I'm breathing clean air for the first time in four years in our rental! I could write a short story based on the experience we had. Our rental property refuses to clean and maintain our ductwork, so we took matters into our own hands. Julio and his assistant were friendly, knowledgeable, and very detail oriented. Arriving on time is a challenge for most services but it is not for this team! While I was horrified by the before photos, access to the before and after photos was an incredible bonus and we'll be sharing those with the rental company. They were respectful of the whole space, wore shoe covers, vacuumed surfaces or the floor as needed, and figured out the best way to get equipment run up to our third-floor walk-up. VERY reasonably priced as well, especially considering how gross our ducts were. Look no further - they'll get it done properly."

"had been having issues with birds getting into the basement of my building. I wasn't sure how they were getting in but knew they would find themselves stuck in either the chimney cleanup or flue to my boiler and/or water heater. I had a wildlife company come out initially and he recommended I have my chimney inspected as he thought that would be the likely source of entry. I did a Google search and came across Chimney USA. I spoke with Mirna and explained my situation and she knew exactly what I was talking about. This woman is incredible. She was so thorough in explaining how and why situations like mine happens as well as knowledgeable about how the chimney system works, the components and what part they play, how to diagnose the issue, options for repair, and so forth. I mean she really knows her stuff! Needless to say, I set up an appointment to have chimney unblockage, cleaning and inspection done and she and her team did a wonderful job. They were very professional and arrived within the window of time given (9a-12). I was surprised because I wasn't expecting her to come but I'm glad she did. They worked with attentiveness, safety, and care as they wanted me the customer to have a knowledge and understanding of what was going on as they moved through the process. I was even able to go on the roof while they inspected the chimney cap which resulted in them adding a protective layer of mesh around the existing cap. The cap appeared to be the source of the problem. Anyhow we explored other options for chimney caps as well as added a cap to another opening that appeared to be an old chimney I didn't even know existed. And just to be clear, it was my idea to add the other cap and not a sales pitch to try and make more money. I wanted to make sure I was taking all precautions to avoid anything else getting into my building. Anyhow, all in all Chimney USA is a great company. I would highly recommend them if you are in need of any work related to the chimney, roof, issues with animals getting into your home, and so forth. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because I felt they were a little pricey but otherwise good company, good people."

Yes, cleaning air ducts is worth it because it improves your HVAC system's efficiency and extends its lifespan. Dust and dirt accumulation force the system to work harder, increasing energy costs. By removing contaminants from your ducts, you enhance indoor air quality and create a healthier environment for your household.
You should get your air ducts cleaned at least every three to five years to maintain optimal indoor air quality and system efficiency. Additionally, consider scheduling a cleaning after purchasing a new home, completing a remodeling project, or if you notice signs of mold, pests, or excessive dust. Regular cleanings help prevent allergens from circulating and keep your HVAC system running smoothly.
You can tell your air ducts need to be cleaned if you notice visible mold growth inside ducts or on other HVAC components, excessive dust or debris blowing out of vents, or musty odors when the system is running. Other signs include unexplained allergy symptoms, inconsistent airflow, increased energy bills, or evidence of rodent or insect infestations in your ductwork.
Yes, air duct cleaning can cause damage if not performed correctly. DIY efforts or hiring uncertified companies may lead to damaged ductwork, loosened connections, or punctures that reduce system efficiency. Professional duct cleaners use specialized equipment and follow industry standards to ensure thorough cleaning without harming your ducts, so it's important to hire qualified professionals.
No, standard duct cleaning does not remove mold. While cleaning can remove visible dust and debris, mold requires specialized remediation. If a professional cleaner discovers mold in your air ducts, they will have it tested to identify the type and extent. Then, a certified mold remediation specialist should address the issue to eliminate mold from your ducts and prevent it from returning.
You can decrease the need for frequent air duct cleanings by regularly changing your HVAC filters every one to three months, using high-quality filters that trap more dust and allergens. Keeping your home clean by vacuuming and dusting regularly reduces the amount of debris entering the ducts. Sealing any gaps in your ductwork can prevent dust accumulation, and maintaining your HVAC system with regular professional inspections helps ensure optimal performance.
