Default Air duct cleaning

Elana;
The company I used was Cunningham. The do residental, commercial
etc.

The price I got from them was 300.00

Cheaper than others (at least around here) but then again they were
here for about 4 - 5 hours doing
their job. The really did pull allot of dirt out of the intake
registers, more than I expected.

Overall I was happy with the job. I was thinking of doing the job
with the shopvac but
for two guys to work that long 300.00 wasnt exactly outragous.

I posted a similar question about a month ago and many of the posters said
is was basically a waste of money.


You asked if cleaning the ducts would improve the air flow, and you
were told not to expect that. As for a the cleaning itself, it is
absurd to suggest that it would be a waste of money. If the ducts have
an inch of dirt in them, is it a waste? Do you vacuum your house?

I posted about my experience, and I didn't think it was a waste of
time at all. If you did it once every year, it would be a waste.

As far as the question of disinfecting from the OP, they shouldn't
expect miracles, but the disinfectant will disinfect what it reaches.
If the cause of mold or whatever remains, then the disinfectant will
have a temporary effect.
